cModel.Bounds_FailureRate

Returns the bounds on the failure rate given the specified time. Use the SetConfidenceLevel method to specify the confidence bound settings.

Syntax

• Bounds_FailureRate( Time As Double , Optional CurrentAge As Double = 0 , Optional DutyCycle As Double = 1.0 ) As BoundsValues

Parameters

Time: The time to calculate the failure rate.

CurrentAge: The current age.

DutyCycle: The duty cycle.

Usage Example

 'Declare a new repository connection object. See Repository. 
  Private WithEvents MyRepository As New Repository
 
 'Connect to the Synthesis repository. 
 Dim Success As Boolean = False
 Success = MyRepository.ConnectToRepository("RepositoryFileNamePath")
 
 'Get the list of projects in the connected repository. See NameIdPair. 
 Dim ListOfModels() As NameIdPair
 ListOfModels = MyRepository.GetAllModelsInfo()
 
 'Select the ID of the model and retrieve it. 
 Dim AModel as cModel
 AModel = MyRepository.GetModel(ListOfModels(0).ID)
 
 'Get the Bounds on the failure rate at time = 100. 
 Dim ModelBoundsValue as BoundsValues
 ModelBoundsValue = AModel.Bounds_FailureRate(100)
