Bivariate Nonlinear Diffusion Degradation Process Modeling via Copula and MCMC

A novel reliability assessment method for degradation product with two dependent performance characteristics (PCs) is proposed, which is different from existing work that only utilized one dimensional degradation data. In this model, the dependence of two PCs is described by the Frank copula functio...
