ExponentialReliabilityFunction (jreliability v2.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.jreliability.function.SequentialFunction
- - org.jreliability.function.common.ExponentialReliabilityFunction

All Implemented Interfaces:

Function, ReliabilityFunction

Direct Known Subclasses:

ExponentialFailureFunction
```
public class ExponentialReliabilityFunction
extends SequentialFunction
implements ReliabilityFunction
```
The ExponentialReliabilityFunction represents the exponential ReliabilityFunction
R(x) = 1 - F(x) = e^-(alpha * x)
with alpha > 0.
Typical for this ReliabilityFunction is the constant failure-rate lambda that equals the parameter alpha.
