Test-Fix-Test Data Reference Example

This example compares the results for test-fix-test data (time terminated).

Crow, L.H., Confidence Interval Procedures for the Weibull Process with Applications to Reliability Growth, U.S. Army Material Systems Analysis Activity, 1981.

Beta = 0.413, Lambda = 1.769

DMTBF = 52.7

Confidence Bounds on DMTBF (CL = 80%) = (35.6, 82.9)


 * $$\begin{align}

\hat{\beta }=&\frac{N}{{N\ln T^{*}}-\sum_{i=1}^{N}T_{i}}\\ \\ =&\frac{23}{{23\cdot \ln \left ( 500 \right )}-87.2106}\\ \\ =&0.4127 \end{align}\,\!$$


 * $$\begin{align}

\hat{\lambda }=&\frac{N}{T^{*\beta }}\\ \\ =&\frac{23}{500^{0.4127}}\\ \\ =&1.7691 \end{align}\,\!$$
