In this article, we present a new imprecise statistical inference method for accelerated life testing data, where nonparametric predictive inferences at normal stress levels are integrated with a parametric Arrhenius-Weibull model. The method includes imprecision based on the likelihood ratio test which provides robustness with regard to the model assumptions. We use the likelihood ratio test to obtain an interval for the parameter of the Arrhenius link function providing imprecision into the method. The imprecision leads to observations at increased stress levels being transformed into interval-valued observations at the normal stress level, where the width of an interval is larger for observations from higher stress levels. If the model fits well, our method has relatively little imprecision. However, if the model fits poorly, it leads to more imprecision. Simulation studies are presented to investigate the performance of the proposed method.

The model silicon pressure sensor was taken as the object; in this paper, we built failure physics equation of sensor under the vibration stress based on the failure modes and failure mechanism of pressure sensor, and using vibration stress as the acceleration factor to process accelerated life testing under invariableness stress. The results show that failure physics equation of sensor yields the inverse power law relationship. The estimated value of reliability character and accelerated life equation of sensor under the vibration stress was attained through analyzing testing data and the average life and reliable life of sensor has been attained through reliability evaluation.
