Exposure variable

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The exposure variable, in reliability theory, is the discrete or continuous variable which differentiates distinct failure events. It is usually time, espeically the time to failure of a device, or the time to death of a person. Time can be considered loosely as a hazard to which the device or person is exposed.
