Content SummaryWe develop a first exit time methodology to model the life time process of a complicated system. We assume that the functionality level of a complicated system follows a stochastic process during time and the end of the functionality of the system comes when the functionality function reaches a zero level. After solving several technical details including the Fokker-Planck equation for the appropriate boundary conditions we estimate the transition probability density function and then the first exit time probability density of the functionality of the system reaching a barrier during time. The formula we arrive is essential for complicated system forms. A simpler case has the form called as Inverse Gaussian and was first proposed independently by Schrödinger and Smoluchowsky in the same journal issue (1915) to express the probability density of a simple first exit time process hitting a linear barrier. Applications to the health state of biological systems (the human population and the Mediterranean flies) and to the functionality life time of cars are done.en
