Figures 1.10-1.12 are the plots of statistical estimates Q ( t ).
The rules for constructing graphs are clear from the above calculation
formulas. Each of the graphs has its scale.
Calculation of statistical estimates of numerical characteristics.
The statistical estimates of numerical characteristics can be calculated
using the data of the generated statistical series.
Estimates of the characteristics are defined as follows:
- estimate of mean operating time to failure ( statistical mean operating
time ):
