An exact asymptotic formula for the tail probability of a multivariate normal distribution is derived. This formula is applied to establish two asymptotic results for the maximum deviation from the mean: the weak convergence to the Gumbel distribution of a normalized maximum deviation and the precis

For high reliability devices or structures it is not uncommon that the probabilities to be estimated are lower than 10 -6 . In such cases the standard methods of the empirical fit approach and the counting approach may become impractical. In this paper the estimation problem is handled by extrapolat
