LEDs have been used extensively in the mobile device, automobile, and general lighting because they are semi-permanent, long life, less power consumption, reliable and environmentally friendly. In this paper, the accelerated degradation test(ADT) for a general lighting 4W LED Lamp using external converter is considered. The conditions of ADT are high temperature and high humidity. We show that its life time is log-normally distributed with same parameters under both a normal condition and an accelerated condition, and also derive an accelerated factor.

We carry out reliability tests and investigate the failure mechanisms. of the wafer level vacuum packaged MEMS gyroscope sensor using an accelerated degradation test. The accelerated degradation test (ADT) is used to evaluate reliability (and/or life) of the MEMS vacuum package and to select the accelerated test conditions, which reduce the reliability testing time. Using the failure distribution model and stress-life model, we are able to estimate the average life time of the vacuum package, which is well agreed with the measured data. After improving several package reliability issues such as prevention of gas diffusion through package, we carry out another set of accelerated tests at the chosen acceleration level. The results show that reliability of the vacuum packaged gyroscope has been greatly improved and can survive without degradation of performance, which is the Q-factor in gyroscope sensor, during environmental stress reliability tests.

Time-temperature superposition has been studied to determine the long-term fatigue life over millions of cycles for glassy polymers. π le superposition is supposed to make an accelerated lifetime testing (ALT) technique possible. Dog-bone shaped specimens made of carbon filled Polycarbonate (PC) were tested under fatigue, based on the stress-lifetime approach (S-N curve). Fatigue-induced localized yield-like deformation is considered as the defect leading to fatigue and its evolution behavior is characterized by a modified energy activation model in which temperature is considered as fatigue acceleration factor. This model allows the reduced time concept to account for effects of different temperature in short-term fatigue data to determine long-term fatigue life through the use of time-temperature superposition that is applicable under a low frequency and isothermal conditions. The experimental results validated that the proposed technique could be a possible method for accelerated lifetime testing (ALT) of time-dependent polymeric materials.

열분석기인 시차 주사 열량계를 이용하여 $BKNO_3$ 화약의 아레니우스(Arrhenius) 동역학 상수인 활성화 에너지와 Pre-Exponential Factor를 구하였다. 기존의 방법과 달리 고온 가속 노화와 DSC를 병행하여 보다 정밀한 활성화 에너지를 구하였고 열 유속의 적분값을 비교하여 저장 온도에 따른 분율을 구하였다. 이를 통하여 수명 예측을 위한 $BKNO_3$ 화약의 가속노화 시험 조건을 제시하고 열 가속노화에 관한 의미를 재고하였다.

최근 우주 항공 분야 발전으로 인해 NBR에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으나, HNBR의 항공용 윤활유 관련 연구는 많지 않고, 특히 가혹인자들에 대한 가속수명 평가는 그렇게 많이 보고되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 항공분야에 사용되는 HNBR(Hydrogenated Acrylonitrile Butadiene Rubber) 제품의 가속수명을 평가하기 위해 성능평가 인자로 인장강도를 채택하고, 성능 노화특성에 영향을 미치는 가속 스트레스 인자를 온도로 정의했다. 가속 스트레스 인자는 온도(60 ℃, 80 ℃, 100 ℃)로 정하여 시간(0 ~ 720시간)에 따른 인장강도 변화를 측정한 결과값으로 결정했다. 가속 조건은 일정 기간 동안 노화된 시편을 오븐에서 꺼내어 24시간 상온에서 방치한 후, 시험편을 KS M 6518에 명시된 기준에 따라 아령형 3호 시편을 제작하여 가속수명 평가의 한 요소인 인장강도를 측정하였다. 아레니우스 모델을 이용하여 얻어진 활성화 에너지 값은 0.895임을 알 수 있고, 형상모수는 1.152이었으며, 20℃에서 항공용 오일에 침지한 HNBR 시편의 인장강도로부터 얻어진 특성수명은 272,256시간, 평균수명(MTTF)는 258,965시간, B10 수명은 38,624시간이었다.

Heavy duty coating are required to have minimum durable period of 15 years under average usage environment because these paints are coated with purpose of anti-corrosion, antifouling, plastering etc. Onto steel structures constructed upon land and sea and other ferrous structures of electric power generation plants, electricity transmission towers, large structures of various plants, etc. Therefore we tried to estimate heavy duty coating longevity through reliability evaluation method and used combined cyclic anti-conrrosion test method composed of drying, moisturizing and salt spray as for accelerated life test to estimate longevity. Accelerated life test hours to heavy duty coating of first grade (with longevity not less than 15 years) specification may be obtained from troubleless test hours $t_n=\frac{B_p}{n^{1/\beta}}\left[\frac{1n(1-CL)}{1n(1-p)} \right]^{1/\beta}=19.671$ (yr) where shape parameter $\beta=1.1$, confidence level CL=80 %, warranty life $B_{10}=15$ yr and sampling size n=10 (2 sets). Because acceleration factor {AF} found by accelerated test is 41.7, accelerated life test hours required may be represented about 4,132 hr so that if this amount of hours is converted to number of cycles(6 hr/cycle) of complex cycle corrosion resistance test then the amount is tantamount about 690 cycles. That means if there does not occur trouble failure (with defect factor sum not more than 20) during when there is performed 690 cycles of combined cyclic anti-corrosion test to heavy duty coating specimen then it signifies that there can be warranted longevity $B_{10}$ of 15 yr under condition of confidence level CL=80 %.

본 연구에서는 접힘홈이 형성된 띠형 섬유보강재를 대상으로, 보강재 종류 및 크리프시험 방법에 따른 크리프특성을 분석하고 크리프 감소계수를 평가하기 위하여 인장강도가 다른 6종류의 띠형 섬유보강재(인장강도 15kN, 25kN, 35kN, 50kN, 70kN, 90kN)에 대한 가속 크리프시험(SIM)을 수행하였다. 또한, 특히 활용 빈도가 높은 인장강도 25kN인 띠형 섬유보강재에 대해서는 장기 크리프시험을 동시에 수행하여 가속 크리프시험 결과와 비교, 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 보강재의 설계수명이 증가할수록 크리프 감소계수가 증가하고, 동일한 소재와 제조방법을 사용한 띠형 섬유보강재는 인장강도가 서로 다르더라도 설계수명에 따라 거의 유사한 크리프 감소계수값을 보여주며, 장기 및 가속 크리프시험 데이터를 모두 사용한 경우의 크리프 감소계수는 장기 크리프시험 데이터만 사용한 경우보다 설계수명 50년~100년을 고려하면 크리프 감소계수가 5.9%~7.1% 정도 작게 평가됨을 알 수 있었다.

Accelerated aging tests were conducted under laboratory conditions on two generator stator bars. Electrical stress is applied in No. 1 model stator bar. Electrical and thermal stresses are applied in No. 2 model stator bar. As aging times increased from 0 to 11460h, dissipation factor($tan{\delta}$) test was performed on No. 1 and No.2 model stator bars. The ${\Delta}tan{\delta}$ of No. 1 and No. 2 stator bars increased with increased in aging time.

This paper presents an accelerated life test to estimate the lifetime of thermoelectric module for home water purifier. Clamping force and thermal cycle are selected as accelerating variables through the technical review about failure mechanism. It is assumed that its lifetime follows weibull distribution. The relationship, acceleration factor, and BP life at design condition are estimated by analyzing the accelerated life test data.

In this paper we consider optimal designs of partially accelerated life testing which is devised for multi-component mixed systems with the considerably long lifetime. Test items are run at both use condition and accelerated condition until a specified censoring time. The optimal criterion for the sample-proportion allocated to accelerated condition is to minimize asymptotic variance of the maximum likelihood estimators of the acceleration factor and hazard rates.
