Sequential Tests Under Weibull Distribution.
Abstract
The objective of this paper is to develop acceptance procedures based on a sequential probability ratio test when the system failures follow Weibull probability distribution. The acceptance procedures in both Military Handbook 108 and Mil-Std-781C are based on exponential distribution of failures. Exponential distribution implies a constant hazard rate. The Weibull distribution is much more comprehensive and, with suitable choice of parameters, can describe constant, increasing or decreasing hazard rates.
