The following data are taken from Lawless (1982, p.193) and represent the number of days it took rats painted with a carcinogen to develop carcinoma. The last 2 observations are censored data from a ...

This example compares the use of three-parameter and two-parameter Weibull Q-Q plots for the failure times in months for 48 integrated circuits. The times are assumed to follow a Weibull distribution.

Assume that a (possibly censored) sample is available from a population having a Weibull or extreme value distribution, and that a single future observation is to be obtained from the same population.

Here’s a way to calculate the reliability for designs with several subsystems. • Weibull plots fit a curve through data, not data to a predetermined distribution’s curve. • After evaluating subsystems ...

The Rasch-Weibull process--a non-homogeneous Poisson process with intensity $\lambda \gamma t^{\gamma -1}$--is introduced, and it is shown that the process has a number of qualities which make a ...
