Abstract
This article explains the underlying complexities and misconceptions of mean time between failure index (MTBF) and the methods available for estimating it. MTBF is largely based on assumptions and definition of failure and attention to these details are paramount to proper interpretation. MTBF is a reliability term used loosely throughout many industries and has become widely abused in some. Over the years the original meaning of this term has been altered which has led to confusion
