A new modified Weibull distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
We introduce a new lifetime distribution by considering a serial system with one component following a Weibull distribution and another following a modified Weibull distribution. We study its mathematical properties including moments and order statistics. The estimation of parameters by maximum likelihood is discussed. We demonstrate that the proposed distribution fits two well-known data sets better than other modified Weibull distributions including the latest beta modified Weibull distribution. The model can be simplified by fixing one of the parameters and it still provides a better fit than existing models. & 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

A New Lifetime Distribution: The Beta Modified Weibull Power Series Distribution
In this paper, we propose a new parametric distribution which called as the Beta Modified Weibull Power Series (BMWPS) distribution. This distribution is obtained by compounding Beta Modified Weibull (BMW) and power series distributions. BMWPS distribution contains, as special sub-models, such as Beta Modified Weibull Poisson (BMWP) distribution, Beta Modified Weibull Geometric (BMWG) distribut...
متن کاملCharacterizations of New Modified Weibull Distribution
Several characterizations of a New Modified Weibull distribution, introduced by Doostmoradi et al. (2014), are presented. These characterizations are based on: (i) truncated moment of a function of the random variable (ii) the hazard function (iii) a single function of the random variable (iv) truncated moment of certain function of the 1st order statistic.
متن کاملA New Modified Weibull Distribution and Its Applications
In this paper we introduce a four-parameter generalized Weibull distribution. This new distribution has a more general form of failure rate function. It is more general for modeling than six ageing classes of life distributions with appropriate choices of parameter values, so it can display decreasing, increasing, bathtub shaped, unimodal, increasing-decreasing increasing and decreasing-increas...
متن کاملModified Progressive Type-II Censoring Procedure in Life-Testing under the Weibull Model
In this paper we introduce a new scheme of censoring and study it under the Weibull distribution. This scheme is a mixture of progressive Type II censoring and self relocating design which was first introduced by Srivastava [8]. We show the superiority of this censoring scheme (PSRD) relative to the classical schemes with respect to “asymptotic variance”. Comparisons are also made with respect ...
متن کاملTransmuted Exponentiated Modified Weibull Distribution
A generalization of the exponentiated modified Weibull distribution so-called the transmuted exponentiated modified Weibull distribution is proposed and studied. Various structural properties including explicit expressions for the moments, quantiles, and moment generating function of the new distribution are derived. The estimation of the model parameters is performed by least square method. We...
