Probability of failure from a particular cause. Suppose that a series system can fail from one of K independent competing causes with cumulative life distributions F,(y), . . . , F,( y j.
(a) Derive an expression for the proportion PA( v) of the population that fail from cause k by age y.
(b) Show P,(yj+ ... +P,(y)=F(y), the cumulative distribution of time to failure when all causes act.
(c) Give the special result from (a) when the distributions are all exponential with means O,, k= I,. . ., K.
(d) For (c), what proportion of the failures by age y have come from cause k?
(e) Give the special result from (a) when all distributions are Weibull distributions with differing scale parameters and a common shape parameter
(f) For (ej, what proportion of the failures by agey have come from cause k

Analyses indicate the potential improvement in life
: Metal fatigue. A low-cycle fatigue test of 384 specimens of a superalloy at a particular strain range and high temperature yielded the following data. Data are grouped by the log (base 10) of the number of cycles to failure into intervals of 0.05.
