In this paper, we propose a new parametric distribution which called as the Beta Modified Weibull Power Series (BMWPS) distribution. This distribution is obtained by compounding Beta Modified Weibull (BMW) and power series distributions. BMWPS distribution contains, as special sub-models, such as Beta Modified Weibull Poisson (BMWP) distribution, Beta Modified Weibull Geometric (BMWG) distribut...

in this research paper, a 10 minute period measured wind speed data at 10 m, 30 m, and 40 m heights are presented for one of the major provinces of iran. four stations in khuzestan- abadan, hosseyneh, mahshahr, and shushtar- are analyzed to determine the potential of wind power generation in this province. from the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the weibull funct...

The Weibull distribution has been widely used in survival and engineering reliability analysis. In life testing experiments is fairly common practice to terminate the experiment before all the items have failed, that means the data are censored. Thus, the main objective of this paper is to estimate the reliability function of the Weibull distribution with uncensored and censored data by using B...

 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.

in this paper, the 10-minutes period measured wind speed data at different heights (10 m, 30 m, and 40 m) are presented for khvaf, which is one of the major counties with high wind potential in khorasan provinces in iran. to the author’s knowledge, there hasn’t been any assessment works in the mentioned site. from the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the weibull fu...

the data set employed in this study was comprised of a number of 6,800 records of lamb’s longevity and their survival rate, collected from 1989 through 2009, from the lori-bakhtiari experimental flock at the shooli station in shahrekord, iran. the data were analyzed using linear models and proportional hazard models with weibull function. these models included fixed factors and direct additive ...

We propose the Weibull negative binomial distribution that is a quite flexible model to analyze positive data, and includes as special submodels the Weibull, Weibull Poisson and Weibull geometric distributions. Some of its structural properties follow from the fact that its density function can be expressed as a mixture of Weibull densities. We provide explicit expressions for moments, generati...

It is extremely difficult to predict the initiation time of cracking due to a large time spread in most cracking experiments. Thus, probabilistic models, such as the Weibull distribution, are usually employed to model the initiation time of cracking. Therefore, the parameters of the Weibull distribution are estimated from data collected from a cracking test. However, although the development of...

We exhibit a new stability property of Weibull tail-distributions. It is shown that the power of a random variable with a Weibull tail-distribution still has a Weibull tail-distribution and the associated Weibull tail-coefficient is exhibited. Weibull tail-distributions are defined through their distribution function by:
