Hot duplication versus survivor equivalence in Gamma-Weibull distribution
نویسنده
چکیده
The reliability of composite system (series, parallel) is improved by (i) reduction method, and by (ii) hot duplication, considering the systems survivor function. Related survivor equivalence functions and pointwise survivor equivalence factors are derived in all cases when the components lifetime distribution follow the gamma–Weibull distribution introduced recently by Leipnik and Pearce.

Reliability Equivalence Factors in Exponentiated Exponential Distribution
The reliability equivalence factors of parallel system with n independent and identical components will be discussed. The failure rates of the system components are functions of time and follow the exponentiated exponential distribution. We shall introduce two different methods to improve the system designs. The first is the reduction method and the second is called redundancy method which is c...
متن کاملModeling heterogeneity for bivariate survival data by shared gamma frailty regression model
In the analysis of survival data with parametric models, it is well known that the Weibull model is not suitable for modeling survival data where the hazard rate is non-monotonic. For such cases, where hazard rates are bathtub-shaped or unimodal (or hump-shaped), log-logistic, lognormal, Birnbaun-Saunders, and inverse Gaussian models are used for the computational simplicity and popularity amon...
متن کاملProbability Distribution Fitting to Maternal Mortality in Nigeria.
The consequences of Maternal Mortality (MM) cannot be overemphasized. It inhibits population growth resulting into loss of lives among others. This work tends to obtain the maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Nigeria, identify some fitted distributions to MMR and determine which of the distributions best fits the data. A comprehensive Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA) was carried on MM and the MMRs...

Abstract Employees always concern about losing their job, or in other word, losing their income resources. For this purpose, governments require strong protection system for covering these concerns. The Unemployment Insurance (UI) program’s can be used for achieving this goal. Based on article five of Iranian unemployment Insurance law, premium is four percent of employee’s salary while emplo...
متن کاملAvailability Equivalence Analysis of a Repairable Series-Parallel System
This paper studies the availability equivalence of different designs of a repairable series-parallel system. Under the assumption that the system components have constant failure rates and repair rates, we derive the availability of the original and improved systems according to reduction, increase, hot duplication, warm duplication and cold duplication methods, respectively. The availability e...
