Power-Law Adjusted Failure-Time Models

نویسنده

  • William J. Reed
چکیده

A simple adjustment to parametric failure-time distributions, which allows for much greater flexibility in the shape of the hazard-rate function, is considered. Analytical expressions for the distributions of the power-law adjusted Weibull, gamma, log-gamma, generalized gamma, lognormal and Pareto distributions are given. Most of these allow for bathtub shaped and other multi-modal forms of the hazard rate. The new distributions are fitted to real failure-time data which exhibit a multi-modal hazard-rate function and the fits are compared.

Power-law Adjusted Survival Models

A simple adjustment to parametric failure-time distributions, which allows for much greater flexibility in the shape of the hazard-rate function, is considered. Closed-form expressions for the distributions of the power-law adjusted Weibull, gamma, log-gamma, generalized gamma, lognormal and Pareto distributions are given. Most of these allow for bathtub shaped and other multi-modal forms of th...

Effect of six non-Newtonian viscosity models on hemodynamic parameters of pulsatile blood flow in stenosed artery

A numerical study of hemodynamic parameters of pulsatile blood flow is presented in a stenotic artery with A numerical study of hemodynamic parameters of pulsatile blood flow is presented in a stenotic artery with non-Newtonian models using ADINA. Blood flow was considered laminar, and the arterial wall was considered rigid. Studied stenosis severities were 30, 50, and 70% of the cross-section...

Optimal Modeling and Forecasting of Equipment Failure Rate for the Electricity Distribution Network

In order to gain a deep understanding of planned maintenance, check the weaknesses of distribution network and detect unusual events, the network outage should be traced and monitored. On the other hand, the most important task of electric power distribution companies is to supply reliable and stable electricity with the minimum outage and standard voltage. This research intends to use time ser...

کاربرد الگوریتم ژنتیک و ماشین بردار پشتیبان در جستجوی پارامترهای نانوشراره‌های تاج خورشید

  Nanoflares are the small impulsive sudden energy releases, due to the explosion of solar background. Thus, determination of their energies and distributions is important . Recent observations and simulation models have shown that the frequency of their energies follows power-law. According to Parker hypothesis, if these exponents are greater than critical value 2, the contributions of nanofla...

Extraction Kinetics and Physicochemical Studies of Terminalia catappa L Kernel Oil Utilization Potential

Kinetics and selected variables (temperature, particle size and time) for extraction of Terminalia Catappa L Kernel Oil (TCKO) were investigated using solvent extraction. Kinetic models studied were: parabolic diffusion, power law, hyperbolic, Elovich and pseudo-second-order. In ascending order, the best-fitted models at the optimum temperature and oil yield were Elovich’s model, hyperbolic...
