Abstract
The stress-strength reliability (SSRe) model is widely investigated in reliability engineering to determine the probability of the strength component overcomes the stress imposed on it. In this paper, we studied the estimation of SSRe model based on the Burr III distribution under the improved adaptive progressive type-II censoring scheme (IAPrgCS-II). Estimation methods of the SSRe parameters are developed using frequentist and Bayesian approaches. The point and interval estimations using the maximum likelihood are considered to estimate the parameters. Two approximations are applied to compute the Bayes estimates. A simulation study is conducted for the comparison of the methods of estimation. Also, parallel to the development of reliability studies, it is necessary to study its application in different sciences such as engineering. Therefore, the droplet splashing (DrS) data under two wettabilities are proposed as an application of the considered SSRe model and methods. The results show us that the reliability model can be used to amend the quality of coatings.
