USAGE MONITOR RELIABILITY FACTOR USING AN ADVANCED FATIGUE RELIABILITY ASSESSMENT MODEL

摘要

According to one non-limiting embodiment, a method includes accessing flight regime rates of occurrence distributions associated with one or more flight regimes for a fleet of aircraft. Using the accessed flight regime distributions, a factor for at least one of the flight regimes is determined that provides a predetermined amount of reliability for a component on each aircraft on the fleet of aircraft known to be affected through at least fatigue damage by the at least one flight regime.
