background: combination of cyromazine as an insect growth regulator (igr) and nasonia vitripennis (hymenop tera: pteromalidae) a parasitic wasp may be an effective tool for reducing the house-fly populations in poultry houses and livestock farms. this study was conducted to assess the side effects of the igr cyromazine on the level of parasit ism and numbers and the longevity of emerged n. vitr...

• In many applications of lifetime data analysis, it is important to perform inferences about the change-point of the hazard function. The change-point could be a maximum for unimodal hazard functions or a minimum for bathtub forms of hazard functions and is usually of great interest in medical or industrial applications. For lifetime distributions where this change-point of the hazard function...

This paper introduces a new distribution named Exponential Modified Weibull logistic distribution. generalizes the following distributions: (1) Linear Failure Rate Logistic Distribution, (2) (3) Rayleigh (4) where failure rate, Weibull, and exponential distributions are most used for analyzing lifetime data. The properties of derived that include expressions rthmoment, characteristic function q...

Iran is a country completely dependent on fossil fuel resources. In order to obtain a diversity of energy sources, it requires other resources, especially renewable energy. Utilization of wind energy appears to be one of the most efficient ways of achieving sustainable development. The quantification of wind potential is a pivotal and essential initial step while developing strategies for the de...

The objective of this study was to examine the properties of Bayes estimators of the parameter, reliability function and hazard rate under the symmetric and asymmetric loss functions for the inverted exponential model. The Bayes predictive interval and the Bayes estimate of shift point are also determined. A simulation study was carried out to study the properties of the Bayes estimators. Intro...

The present article considers a new function to propose a new lifetime distribution. The new distribution is introduced by mixing up a linear system of the two logarithms of cumulative hazard functions. The proposed model is called new extended flexible Weibull distribution and is able to model lifetime with bathtub shaped failure rates and offers greater flexibility. Therefore, it can be quite...

The Weibull distribution is a very popular distribution. It is called after Waladdi Weibull, a Swedish physicist. He used it in 1939 to analyze the breaking strength of materials. Since then it has been widely used for modelling phenomena with monotone failure rates. It is not useful for modelling phenomena with non monotone failure rates. The Weibull distribution has been shown to be useful fo...

background: in survival studies when the event times are dependent, performing of the analysis by using of methods based on independent assumption, leads to biased. in this paper, using copula function and considering the dependence structure between the event times, a parametric joint distribution has made fitting to the events, and the effective factors on each of these events would be determ...

The theoretical study of the effect of Corticosterone release scores was determined. Formulae of fuzzy two parameter Weibull distribution, fuzzy Survival and fuzzy hazard rate function and its α-cut sets were presented. Using fuzzy survival and hazard rate model based on two parameter Weibull distributions, we showed that in the test termination, if the fuzzy Survival value increases then the f...
