Adds failure times to the data set, using the time at which the units failed, the number of failures at that time and the associated stress level.
Syntax
- AddFailure( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress() As Object ) Adds failure times to the data set, using the specified time, the number of failures at that time and an array of stress values/profiles for all the stresses.
- AddFailure( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress1 As Object ) Adds failure times to the data set, using the specified time, the number of failures at that time and a single stress value/profile.
- AddFailure( Value As Double , NumberInGroup As Integer , Stress1 As Object , Stress2 As Object ) Adds failure times to the data set, using the specified time, the number of failures at that time and two stress values/profiles.
Parameters
- Value: The exact time of failure.
- NumberInGroup: The number of units that failed at the Value time.
- Stress(): An array containing numeric stress values or references to added ALTAStressProfiles.
- Stress1: A numeric stress value or reference to an added ALTAStressProfile.
- Stress2: A numeric stress value or reference to an added ALTAStressProfile.
