What is FR(N)? How is it calculated? How are FR(N) and MTBF related?
MTBF
Mean Time Between Failures, a measure of reliability for a system, indicating the average time between failures.
- Evaluate the Failure Rate (FR), Failure Rate Normalized (FR(N)), and Mean Interval Between Failures (MTBF).
- Describe the importance of standard deviation in assessing the reliability of a product, machine, or process.
