This paper and presentation details the underlying algorithms used in data mining of ship tank and void coating system inspection data as found in the CCIMS database. The techniques involve combine Turbull Censoring Survival estimation methods with Weibull Forecasting Analysis to predict the life of the coating system. Coating breakdown and deterioration predictions are presented for various tank types and coating systems. | ||
