Weibull Results Pane for Degradation Analysis
When a degradation data set is selected in the LDA Navigator, once it is calculated, results are shown in the Weibull Results pane. To calculate a degradation data set, you either click the first button in the title bar in a Weibull Parameters pane or perform the procedure described in Calculating Weibull Results.
Sample Weibull Results Pane for a Degradation Data Set
The following table describes the results that appear in the Weibull Results pane.
Result
Description
Group Name
The unique name assigned to a set of data points.
a
The estimated value for model parameter a.
b
The estimated value for model parameter b.
c
For the Gompertz model only, the estimated value for model parameter c. This is the only degradation analysis model with three parameters. When any other model is selected in the Weibull Parameters pane, this result is not shown.
Failure Time
The time at which the failure or suspension occurred.
Failure/Suspensions
Indicates whether the data point is a failure or a suspension.
