The Weibull distribution is widely employed in several areas of engineering because it is an extremely flexible distribution with different shapes. Moreover, it can include characteristics of several other distributions. However, successful usage of Weibull distribution depends on estimation accuracy for three parameters of scale, shape and location. This issue shifts the attentions to the requ...

The typical experimental procedure for testing stress corrosion cracking initiation involves an interval-censored reliability test. Based on these test results, the parameters of a Weibull distribution, which is a widely accepted crack initiation model, can be estimated using maximum likelihood estimation or median rank regression. However, it is difficult to determine the appropriate number of...

The exponentiated -parent distribution is a generalization of the standard parent distribution. [7] introduced a simple generalization to weibull distribution namely the exponentiated weibull distribution. The new distribution was applied to analyzing bathtub failure rates lifetime data. In this paper, we consider the standard exponentiated inverted weibull distribution (EIW) that generalizes t...

92 Published By: Blue Eyes Intelligence Engineering & Sciences Publication Pvt. Ltd. Abstract— In this article, we derive Bayesian stimations of three parameters and some survival time parameters e.g. reliability and hazard functions in the modified Weibull distribution based on combined hybrid censored data. Finally, a real life data set and simulation data are used to illustrate the discussed...
