One of the main concerns for power electronic engineers regarding capacitors is to predict their remaining lifetime in order to anticipate costly failures or system unavailability. This may be achieved using a Weibull statistical law combined with acceleration factors for the temperature, the voltage, and the humidity. This paper discusses the different capacitor failure modes and their effects...

The weibull distribution is mostly used in reliability analysis life data due to its versatility. Depending on the values of parameters, can be model a variety behaviors. three parameter estimate probability null wind speed and gives greater weight low speeds. We also discuss least square method estimation problems hypothesis testing issues, with emphasis graphical methods some software are pro...

in this research, the effect of friction between the liquid metal and the sand mould wall and the effect of passage of liquid through a vertical bend and through a ceramic filter on the fluid flow and the melt velocity has been studied by measuring the velocity of the melt and direct observation of the liquid flow through the different parts of a naturally-pressurized running system. the fricti...

Weibull distribution has been used widely by many researches around the world especially in the analysis of high voltage experimental data. Unfortunately, the statistical techniques used to analyse the high voltage experimental data are not highly accurate. In view of the foregoing, this paper presents a new statistical approach to analyze the tree inception voltage of silicone rubber and epoxy...

The present article considers a new function to propose a new lifetime distribution. The new distribution is introduced by mixing up a linear system of the two logarithms of cumulative hazard functions. The proposed model is called new extended flexible Weibull distribution and is able to model lifetime with bathtub shaped failure rates and offers greater flexibility. Therefore, it can be quite...
