Probability Of Discrete Failures, Weibull Distribution, Mary Jo Hansen May 1989

Probability Of Discrete Failures, Weibull Distribution, Mary Jo Hansen

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The intent of this research and these is to describe the development of a series of charts and tables that provide the individual and cumulative probabilities of failure applying to the Weibull statistical distribution. The mathematical relationships are developed and the computer programs are described for deterministic and Monte Carlo models that compute and verify the results. Charts and tables reflecting the probabilities of failure for a selected set of parameters of the Weibull distribution functions are provided.
