摘要：

In this presentation, we first go through some of the actual industrial projects related to reliability that we have been involved with over the past 30 years to highlight the gaps between practice and theory in reliability engineering. This is followed by elucidating the development of various approaches in bridging these gaps. In particular, we discuss the gaps between research and applications in accelerated testing and degradation modeling, and listed some of the associated results over the years. We also point out some of the directions for future research in response to some of the problems faced by in degradation and repairable systems.
