Scattering of random variables is also convenient to characterize with
variance
D

and the variation
coefficient
.
Since the integral distribution function is equal to:
then the probability of failure and the probability of failure-free operation are
respectively equal to:
Q(t) = F(t);
P(t)
= 1 –
F(t).
The calculation of the integrals is replaced by the use of tables for the
so-called centered and normalized distribution, in which
m
tx
= 0 и
S
x
= 1.
For this distribution, the density function:
has one variable
x
. The distribution density function
is recorded in relative
coordinates with the origin on the axis of symmetry of the loop. The distribution
function is an integral of the distribution density:
From this equation it follows:

The distribution density, the probability of failure and the probability of
failure-free operation are determined by the formulas:
Q(t)

P(t)
= 1 –

(x),

Тhe values of
P(t)
determined by the
formula
The
time value
t
for a given probability of failure-free operation
P(t)
is
determined from the dependence:
Often, instead of the integral distribution function
F
0
(x)
the Laplace function
is used:
In this case:
The probability of failure and the probability of failure-free operation:
With the combined effect of sudden and gradual failures, product reliability
for the period
t
, if before it worked time
T
, is:
Where
–
probability
of absence of sudden failures;
–
probability
of no gradual failures.
There are also other distributions of the random variable:
a log-normal
distribution in which the logarithm of the operating time, the gamma distri-
bution, the Weibull distribution is distributed
according to the normal law,
which is quite universal, encompassing a wide range of probabilistic variations
by varying parameters. However, handling these distributions is more difficult.
