...Narasi Sridhar Modern society relies heavily on complex, intertwined, physical infrastructures for their smooth functioning. Aging of the materials in the physical infrastructures is not necessarily related to service life, but to the increasing probability of failure—the hazard rate. This paper...

... by a normal distribution. This provides the basis for a review of probability theory that may be used for dealing with systems of highly dependent events. It is then applied to the probabilistic modeling of maximum pit depths. The implications for extrapolation of maximum pit depth are illustrated...

... was developed. In this model, the pit generation process is represented by the Poisson process, and the pit depth growth process is modeled by the Markov process. The probability distribution of corrosion pit depth and the probability of time-to-failure are derived based upon the combined stochastic processes...

... of a CERT; this information is expressed by the crack trace depth distribution determined on a longitudinal section of the specimen. It is shown that this information can be deconvoluted to give access to crack initiation probability and crack growth rate data. Further developments lead to the calculation...
