Abstract In this article, the length-biased power hazard rate distribution has introduced and investigated several statistical properties. This reports an extension of probability distributions, namely: exponential, Rayleigh, Weibull, linear rate. The procedure maximum likelihood estimation is taken for parameters. Finally, applicability model explored by three real data sets. To examine, perfo...

In this article, we consider the problem of estimating the stress-strength reliability $Pr (X > Y)$ based on upper record values when $X$ and $Y$ are two independent but not identically distributed random variables from the power hazard rate distribution with common scale parameter $k$. When the parameter $k$ is known, the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE), the approximate Bayes estimator and ...

A new parametric (3-parameter) survival distribution, the lognormal-power function distribution, with flexible behaviour is introduced. Its hazard rate function can be either unimodal, monotonically decreasing or can exhibit a bathtub shape. Special cases include the lognormal distribution and the power function distribution, with finite support. Regions of parameter space where the various for...

electric power industry have always try to provide reliable electricity to customers and at the same time decrease system costs. high voltage circuit-breakers are an essential part of the power network. this study has developed a maintenance and replacement scheduling model for high voltage circuit- breakers that minimize maintenance costs while maintaining the acceptable reliability. this mode...

In many pharmaceutical studies, non-inferiority clinical trials are usually conducted because of the difficulty of finding a therapy that has more superior efficacy than a recognized effective one. When planning the non-inferiority clinical trials with a time-to-event endpoint, the calculation of sample size is one of the most fundamental steps. A proper sample size provides reasonable power to...
