Abstract

A reliability model using Weibull analysis is proposed to analyze data of time to wear/failure of aircraft brake assemblies. The resulting model can be used to schedule a preventive policy for Boeing 737 brake assembly replacement corresponding to an optimal level of brake assembly reliability, to determine logistical support for a specified planning horizon. With this, one can determine the brake assemblies required and can comparatively assess the quality ans performance of the brake assemblies of different manufacturers.
