Focus on solving the life and reliability problems of long-life and high reliability products, a method of modeling and parameter estimation on reliability evaluation and life prediction with accelerated degradation data was proposed in this paper. In the first, three statistical methods of degradation test were analyzed, then according to the features of accelerated degradation data, the statistical model of degradation data based on pseudo-life was established. This method can effectively utilize the horizontal information of degradation data of product under different accelerated stress level, and integrate the advantage that continuous-time function model fits the degradation curve of product strongly, and improve the accuracy of reliability assessment and life prediction of product.

Abstract Accelerated life testing (ALT) has been a common choice to study the effects of environmental stresses on flexible hybrid electronics (FHE), a promising technology to produce flexible electronic devices. Nevertheless, accelerated degradation testing (ADT) has proven to be a more effective approach, which does not require failure occurrences, allowing shorter testing times. Since FHE devices are expected to be highly reliable, ADT provides useful information in the form of degradation data for further analysis without actual failure data. In this paper, we present the design and experimental setup of ADT for FHE considering two stress factors simultaneously. We use daisy-chain resistance as a measurable degradation characteristic to periodically monitor the degradation of FHE products under accelerated stress conditions. Two stress factors, temperature and humidity, are considered and ADT was carried out considering four combinations of temperature and humidity simultaneously. Failure analysis was performed on failed units to investigate the failure process and location of the failure. The ADT data was used to fit in the appropriate mathematical degradation model representing the failure process. The data analysis showed faster degradation paths for higher stress combinations. Finally, we present insights and further research opportunities to expand the work.

Remaining useful life (RUL) prediction in real operating environment (ROE) plays an important role in condition-based maintenance. However, the life information in ROE is limited, especially for some long-life products. In such cases, accelerated degradation test (ADT) is an effective method to collect data and then the accelerated degradation data are converted to normal level of accelerated stresses through acceleration factors. However, the stresses in ROE are different from normal stresses since there are some other stresses except normal stresses, which cannot be accelerated, but still have impact on the degradation. To predict the RUL in ROE, a nonlinear Wiener degradation model is proposed based on failure mechanism invariant principle which is the precondition and requirement of an ADT and a calibration factor is introduced to calibrate the difference between ROE and normal stresses. Moreover, the unit-to-unit variability is considered in the concern model. Based upon the proposed approach, the RUL distribution is derived in closed form. The unknown parameters in the model are obtained by a new two-step method through fuzing converted degradation data in normal stresses and degradation data in ROE. Finally, the validity of the proposed model is demonstrated through several simulation data and a case study.
