Plotting on Weibull Paper
نویسنده
چکیده
This report explains Weibull plotting and its rationale. It shows how the two Weibull parameter estimates are easily read off from the Weibull plot. The use of Weibull plotting is introduced first in the context of complete samples and then extended to two common forms of censoring: type I or multiple censoring and type II censoring. Two blank Weibull plotting templates are provided, one for a two cycle log10 scale and the other for three cycle log10 scale on the abscissa. The use of a Weibull plot as a diagnostic tool for checking the Weibull assumption underlying the sample is examined critically. For small sample sizes, answers, if obtained via this tool, should be taken with caution, since the variability of such Weibull samples is still substantial.

A Note on the Plotting Position Controversy and a New Distribution-free Formula
The recent work “Bringing closure to the plotting position controversy” (Makkonen, 2008a) states the impossibility of a different solution from the classical plotting position proposed by Weibull (1939) and promoted by Gumbel (1958). In this paper, a new and better distribution-free solution is obtained via axiomatic approach. The applicative implications of a comparative study, carried out by ...
متن کاملProbability Plotting for the Weibull Distribution
One method of calculating the parameters of the Weibull distribution is by using probability plotting. To better illustrate this procedure, consider the following example from Kececioglu [18]. Example 1 Assume that six identical units are being reliability tested at the same application and operation stress levels. All of these units fail during the test after operating the following number of ...
متن کاملChoosing an optimal model for failure data analysis by graphical approach
Many models involving combination of multiple Weibull distributions, modification of Weibull distribution or extension of its modified ones, etc. have been developed to model a given set of failure data. The application of these models to modeling a given data set can be based on plotting the data on Weibull probability paper (WPP). Of them, two or more models are appropriate to model one typic...

This paper introduces a new simulator to investigate the statistical characteristics of dielectric breakdown of silicon dioxide thin films in MOSFETs. Breakdown phenomena are well simulated using the percolation concept. Simulations are carried out taking account of various effects which are physically probable, and statistical properties of simulated breakdown phenomena are studied applying We...
متن کاملSome Statistical Inferences on the Parameters of Records Weibull Distribution Using Entropy
In this paper, we discuss different estimators of the records Weibull distribution parameters and also we apply the Kullback-Leibler divergence of survival function method to estimate record Weibull parameters. Finally, these estimators have been compared using Monte Carlo simulation and suggested good estimators.
