TOTAL TIME ON TEST TRANSFORMS OF ORDER nAND THEIR IMPLICATIONS IN RELIABILITY ANALYSIS
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paperwe study the properties of total time on test transforms of ordern and examine their applications in reliability analysis. It is shown that the successive transforms produce either distributions with increasing or bathtub-shaped failure rates or distributions with decreasing or upside bathtub-shaped failure rates. The ageing properties of the baseline distribution is compared with those of transformed distributions, and a partial order based on nth-order transforms and their implications are discussed.

Interpreting the Validity of a High-Stakes Test in Light of the Argument-Based Framework: Implications for Test Improvement
The validity of large-scale assessments may be compromised, partly due to their content inappropriateness or construct underrepresentation. Few validity studies have focused on such assessments within an argument-based framework. This study analyzed the domain description and evaluation inference of the Ph.D. Entrance Exam of ELT (PEEE) sat by Ph.D. examinees (n = 999) in 2014 in Iran....
متن کاملPsychometric Characteristics of a Rating Scale for Assessing Interactional Competence in Paired-Speaking Tasks at Micro-level
Developing rating scales for assessing interactional performance is demanding since it is a relatively complicated procedure. The present study investigated the psychometric characteristics of the CAP rating scale (Wang, 2015) for assessing interactional competence at micro-level. To this end, 160 Iranian intermediate EFL learners were selected based on their performance on TOEFL iBT test from ...

Background and Objectives: Recently, photonic crystals have been considered as the basic structures for the realization of various optical devices for high speed optical communication. Methods: In this research, two dimensional photonic crystals are used for designing all optical logic gates. A photonic crystal structure with a triangular lattice is proposed for making NAND, XNOR, and OR optica...
متن کاملEstimation of reliability-based maintenance time intervals of Load-Haul-Dumper in an underground coal mine
Reliability estimation plays a significant role in the performance assessment of mining equipment, and aids in designing efficient and effective preventive maintenance strategies. Continuous and random/irregular occurrence of failures in a system could be the main cause for performance drop of machinery. The accomplishment of a projected level of production is possible only by an efficient oper...
