Confidence Bounds on Time

The bounds on time (ML estimate of time) for a given reliability are estimated by first solving the reliability function with respect to time:

[math]\displaystyle{ \widehat{T}=-\widehat{m}\cdot \ln (R) }[/math]

The corresponding confidence bounds are estimated from:

[math]\displaystyle{ \begin{align} & {{T}_{U}}= & -{{m}_{U}}\cdot \ln (R) \\ & & \\ & {{T}_{L}}= & -{{m}_{L}}\cdot \ln (R) \end{align} }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ {{m}_{U}} }[/math] and [math]\displaystyle{ {{m}_{L}} }[/math] are estimated using Eqns. (EyrxpMeanUpper) and (EyrxpMeanLower).
