Reliability Estimation in Multicomponent Stress-Strength Based on Inverse Weibull Distribution
A. I. Shawky, Khushnoor Khan
Abstract
The present study focuses on the multi-component stress-strength (MCSS) model based on inverse Weibull distribution (IWD). Both stress and strength are assumed to follow IWD with a common shape parameter. In such a system, reliability is obtained by the maximum likelihood (ML) method. The results are extracted using Monte Carlo simulation for comparing the performance of the reliability component Rs,k using different sample sizes and different combinations of the parameters (s,k). The procedure is further illustrated through a real data set to show how the proposed technique may be employed to study the strength and stress of multicomponent model.
