The Lindley and Weibull are the two most commonly used distributions for analyzing lifetime data. These distributions have several desirable properties and nice physical interpretations. This paper introduces a new ...
In this paper, increasing convex (concave)Total Time on Test (TTT) transform of a lifetime
random variable is considered.In order to identify the failure rate model of functions of random variables, the TTT of transformed ...
Lifetime distributions for many components usually have a bathtub shape for its failure rate function in practice. However, there are a very few distribution have bathtub shaped failure rate function.Models with bathtub-shaped ...
A new upside-down bathtub shaped failure rate distribution, DUS Inverse Weibull (DUS-IW) distribution is proposed and its properties are studied. The DUS-IW distribution has upsidedown bathtub shaped and decreasing failure ...
Usually, systems and components are described as being in one of two modes, “on”or “off.” Such systems are described using binary structure functions. In multistatesystems (MSS), components can be in more than two states—for ...
In this paper we model an open queueing network of cardiac treatment section in medical sector. Assume arrival of patients follows Poisson and service times at stations have exponential distribution. The performance measures ...
In this paper, mixture of Exponential and Weibull distributions is considered for modelling real lifetime data. The basic mathematical properties including moments, generating functions, order statistics etc are derived. ...
Most real life system exhibit bathtub shapes for their failure rate functions.
Generalized Lindley, Generalized Gamma, Exponentiated Weibull and xExponential distributions are proposed for modeling lifetime data having ...
