Warranty Data Analysis Example

This example validates the results of a warranty data analysis in a Weibull++ warranty folio.


Reference Case

The data set is from Example 11.2 on page 453 in the book Life Cycle Reliability Engineering by Dr. Guangbin Yang, John Wiley & Sons, 2007.


Data

A Nevada chart for the warranty data is provided in Table 11.3. The last two rows were combined, as specified in the example.

TTF
TIS 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Total Sales Volume
12 3 0 3 3 4 2 1 5 4 2 3 3 45 2123
11 0 1 2 0 4 2 1 2 0 4 3 30 1853
10 1 3 2 2 3 4 3 5 4 8 45 2238
9 1 2 0 3 4 2 2 3 6 32 3052
8 2 3 2 6 2 1 6 4 34 2953
7 1 1 3 2 1 4 8 27 2788
6 1 0 1 0 1 2 11 2037
5 0 0 1 1 0 7 1863
4 0 0 1 1 6 1231
3 0 1 1 5 823
2 0 1 3 638
1 0 1 568
Total 9 12 16 18 19 17 21 19 14 14 6 3


Result

The book first converted the data in the table above into the following format, as given in Table 11.4 in the book.

TTF (Months) Number of Failures Number of Censored Units
1 9 568
2 12 637
3 16 821
4 18 1229
5 19 1861
6 17 2032
7 21 2768
8 19 2927
9 14 3029
10 14 2203
11 6 1834
12 3 2090

A lognormal distribution is used and the fitted model parameters are: Ln-Mean = 6.03 and Ln-Std = 1.63.


Results in Weibull++

In Weibull++, the data set is entered into a warranty folio, using the Nevada chart format. The following pictures show the sales and returns data.
