In reliability analysis, it is preferable to complete an experiment of data collection in a short time due to constraints concerning energy, money or other resources. In this paper we propose a relative measure called relative expected experimental time (REET) for a life testing experiment when...

This paper deals with the log-logistic distribution as a life time model. Control charts and the corresponding control limits are developed analogous to Shewhart-charts for the process mean and process range. The proposed control limits are compared with those of Shewhart in detecting out of...

In this article, acceptance sampling plans are developed for the log-logistic distribution percentiles when the life test is truncated at a pre-specified time. The minimum sample size necessary to ensure the specified life percentile is obtained under a given customer's risk. The operating...

In this paper, a group acceptance sampling plan is developed based on truncated lifetimes when the lifetime of an item follows a generalized exponential distribution. For a given group size, the minimum number of groups and the acceptance number required are determined for specified consumer's...

In this article , acceptance sampling plans are developed for the Linear Failure Rate Distribution percentiles when the life test is truncated at a pre-specified time. The minimum sample size necessary to ensure the specified life percentile is obtained under a given consumerś risk. The...

The well known inverse Rayleigh distribution is considered as a model for a life time random variable. The problem of acceptance sampling when the life test is truncated at a pre-assigned time is discussed. For various acceptance numbers, various confidence levels and various values of the ratio...

A generalization of the log-logistic distribution called exponentiated log-logistic distribution (in lines of exponentiated Weibull distribution suggested by Mudholkar and Srivastava [Technometrics 37: 436-445, 1995]) is considered. In this paper the operating characteristic for a sampling plan...

Moments of order statistics and an ordered sample are used to define a test statistic for the null hypothesis that the considered random variable has half logistic distribution. The percentiles of the test statistic are evaluated and the power of the test is computed. The developed statistic is...
