Title
Optimum 3-step step-stress tests.
Abstract
Optimum simple step-stress accelerated life testing plans have practical limitations. They highly depend upon the assumption of a linear relationship between stress and time-to-failure and use only two extreme stresses that can cause irrelevant failure modes. Thus, 3-step plans are preferable. In this paper, the authors derive the optimum quadratic plan and propose and evaluate a 3-step test plan,...
