Reason: a rigorous system of continuous inspection he calls, simply, "our operating system".
(3) The strategies of performance inspection for the test unit, which include continuous inspection and periodic inspection.
There are several reasons for this: biological materials are subject to continuous inspection and repair; they are constructed in more optimal ways, especially in respect to fibre orientations, and they are allowed to operate at higher failure rates.
Accordingly, they proposed a "chord method" for planning the V-optimal CSALT with time censoring and continuous inspection.
Although HD is suggested to promote Cs-137 excretion, continuous inspection of locally grown produce together with WBC screening for radiocontamination should be continued for patients with ESRD regularly taking HD.
The proportional hazard assumption was tested by including a time-dependent interaction term in the model (likelihood ratio test) for continuous variables and by inspection of log-minus-log plots for categorical covariates.
Among the studies mentioned above, the most widely used and researched ALT plan is the V-optimal continuous-inspection type-I censoring CSALT plan for statistical models with location-scale distribution and linear stress-life relationship.
For continuous variables (age, CRP, procalcitonin), we used visual inspection to assess whether the inclusion of a non-linear component showed a clear deviation from a linear association in a graph.
The inspection department is able to forecast its potential failure, root causes and impacts on the safe operation of the considered production system, based on a reliable inventory of existing situations and review options for continuous improvement in maintenance management.
Truncation to the 99.5th centile or where the data density ends will be considered for continuous risk factors with highly skewed distributions (eg, smoking pack-years, diet, alcohol consumption, physical activity) based on inspection of histograms and boxplots.
