Time to failure is a poisson distribution, not a step distribution.
- hessenwolf 14y agoTime to failure is an exponential distribution, whereas number of failures in a given time frame is a Poisson distribution, if and only if the hazard rate is constant, which it typically is not, due to wearing of certain components. It's usually a bathtub curve. (your friendly ex-statistics lecture adding some precision)
