A simple Bayes analysis of Weibull Based Accelerated Test model

Abstract

This paper considers a simple Bayes analysis of a two-parameter Weibull distribution in an accelerated test scenario when the scale parameter is regressed according to power law relationship. The analysis is done using independent, vague priors for the parameters. Experiments involving both complete and censored data sets are assumed from the model. Appropriate numerical illustrations are provided using real datasets. The results are found to be satisfactory. © 2015, The Society for Reliability Engineering, Quality and Operations Management (SREQOM), India and The Division of Operation and Maintenance, Lulea University of Technology, Sweden.
