A fatigue test is performed on 69 rotating specimens made of 5160H steel. The measured number of cycles to failure (L in kcycles) is given below, where f is frequency. Assuming a normal distribution, how many specimens are predicted to fail at less than 115 cycles? L 60 70 80 90 100 110 120 130 140 150 160 170 180 190 200 210 f 2 1 3 5 8 12 6 10 8 5 2 3 2 1 0 1 a. Estimate the mean and standard deviation of the life for the population b. Assume the distribution is normal. Predict the number of failed specimens at less than 115 k cycles. c. Assume the distribution of failures remains the same size (that is the standard deviation does not change). What should the mean value of the life expectancy be to ensure approximately 99% of the samples survive at 115 k cycles?

(a) Mean = 122.9, σ = 30.071

(b) No. of failed specimens at less than 115k cycles are 27.

(c) μ = 39.07

Explanation:

We are given:

L  60  70  80  90  100  110  120  130  140  150  160  170  180  190  200  210

f    2     1    3     5     8     12     6     10     8     5     2      3      2      1       0      1

(a) First we need to calculate the mean and standard deviation. The formula for calculating mean is:

Mean = ∑fx/∑f

And for standard deviation we have:

S.D. = √Var

Var = ∑fx²/∑f - (Mean)²

∑fx = (2*60) + (1*70) + (3*80) + (5*90) + (8*100) + (12*110) + (6*120) + (10*130) + (8*140) + (5*150) + (2*160) + (3*170) + (2*180) + (1*190) + (0*200) + (1*210)

         = 120 + 70 + 240 + 450 + 800 + 1320 + 720 + 1300 + 1120 + 750 + 320 + 510 + 360 + 190 + 0 + 210

∑fx = 8480

Mean = ∑fx/∑f

          = 8480/69

Mean = 122.9  

∑fx² = (2*60²) + (1*70²) + (3*80²) + (5*90²) + (8*100²) + (12*110²) + (6*120²) + (10*130²) + (8*140²) + (5*150²) + (2*160²) + (3*170²) + (2*180²) + (1*190²) + (0*200²) + (1*210²)

   =7200+4900+19200+40500+80000+145200+86400+169000+156800+112500+51200+86700+64800+36100+0+44100

∑fx² = 1104600

Var = ∑fx²/∑f - (Mean)²

     = 1104600/69 - (122.9)²

     = 16008.69565 - 15104.41

Var = 904.2856

S.D = √Var

σ = √904.2856

σ = 30.071

(b) Let X be the number of failed specimen.

We will use the z-score to calculate the probability. The formula for z-score is:

z = (X-μ)/σ

P(X<115) = P(z<(115-122.9)/30.071)

              = P(z<-0.26)

Using the normal distribution probability table, we can compute the value of  P(z<-0.26).

P(X<115) = 0.3974

So, no. of failed specimens at less than 115k cycles are: 0.3974*69 = 27 specimens

(c) σ = 30.071

P(x<115) = 0.99

P(z<(115-μ)/30.071) = 0.99

From the normal distribution table we find that 0.99 lies between the z values 2.52 and 2.33. Hence, we get 2.525 as the z-value at which the probability is 0.99.

z = (x-μ)/σ

2.525 = (115 - μ)/30.071

75.93 = 115 - μ

μ = 115 - 75.93

μ = 39.07
