  • Abstract
    In this article, the theoretical considerations that have to be taken into account when using statistical failure analyses of service-aged components are discussed. Furthermore, two case studies in which statistical failure analysis is used to predict future failures and to see in what way strategies can influence this prediction are included. Then, conclusions are drawn based on the analysis of the two case studies
