Creating a Weibull Data Set from FRACAS Data
You can create a Weibull Life Data Set from your FRACAS Incident data. This allows you to further analyze your field data by using Weibull techniques to provide more insight into trends and future forecasting.
To create a Weibull Life Data Set from your FRACAS data, go to the FRACAS Incident Table. In the toolbar, click the Weibull button.
The Create Weibull Life Data Set dialog appears.
Enter a Name for your new Weibull Life Data Set.
Select the Failure Time Field from your FRACAS data that you want to use to create the failure time points in your Weibull Life Data Points Table. The list includes all available Number fields you are capturing in your FRACAS Incident data.
Answer the question Does this data set contain Suspensions? If Yes, specify the field used to identify Suspensions.
Click Next.
Next, you can choose which Incidents to Include when creating the Weibull Life Data Set. You can select from either All Incidents, Incidents associated with the selected Subsystem, or Incidents associated with the selected Subsystem and all children. The selected Subsystem is the Subsystem that is currently highlighted in the Analysis Tree pane.
Additionally, choose whether you want to Include only Closed Incidents.
Click Next.
Next, you can set the details for Date Filtering. You can choose to Include all Incidents or Filter Incidents by Date. If you choose to filter Incidents by date, choose the appropriate Incident Date Field, Start Date, and End Date.
Once you have completed entering the Weibull Life Data Set information, click Create to create your Weibull Life Data Set.
When the Weibull Life Data Set generation has completed, the Create Weibull Life Data Set dialog appears with an indication of the number of data points in your new Weibull Life Data Set.
To view the newly created Weibull Life Data Set, you can click the Click here to go to <Data Set Name> link. Otherwise, click Close.
