TY - JOUR PY - 1986// TI - Applications of concepts of ageing in reliability data analysis JO - Reliability engineering A1 - Newby, Martin SP - 291 EP - 308 VL - 14 IS - 4 N2 - Some simple properties of the mean residual life are developed, and the effect of truncating the range of random variables on their life expectancy is demonstrated. Graphical methods of interpreting the empirical mean residual life are illustrated and shown to help in model selection.
