Abstract

A convolution method is used to solve a tolerance stack-up problem. The input random variables can be of any form. A complete frequency distribution of the possible outcomes is generated in the process of obtaining the desired probability of exceeding the permissible tolerance. (This method has also proved valuable in the actuarial field; for example, in determining the probability that total insurance claims will not exceed a given level.)
