  • Abstract
    The authors discuss the use of expert opinion in reliability assessment. They present an approach for the analysis of life-length data that can be described by a Weibull distribution. They address the problem of predicting the number of defects due to fatigue in a railroad track. In both cases, a Bayesian approach is taken and procedures are developed and implemented on a personal computer
