In accelerated lifetime testing (ALT) the assumption of stress-independent spread in life is commonly used and accepted because the resulting models are typically easier to use and data or past experience suggest that such a constrain is sometimes valid. However in many situations and with a variety of products the spread in life does depend on stress, i.e., the failure mechanism is not the same for all stress levels. In this paper the assessment of product time to failure at service conditions from ALT with stress-dependent spread is addressed by formulating a Bayesian framework where the time to failure follows a Weibull distribution, scale parameter dependency on stress is given by the Power Law, and two cases for the dependency between shape parameter and stress are discussed: linear relationship and, in order to allow a comparative analysis, stress-independent shape parameter. A previously published dataset is used to illustrate the procedure.

With the purpose of understanding differing shapes of sales curve (unimodal and bimodal) this paper discusses a naive way for viewing the diffusion process for consumer durables. In this paper, a step functional model involving two-step Weibull distribution with four unknown parameters is characterized wherein the shape of the density function of the models depends upon the shape and scale parameter of Weibull distribution. Empirical analysis on real life sales datasets indicates that the Weibull step function model is more flexible and fits better than the other models.

In order to make statistic analysis on lifetime data for web game, the two-parameter Weibull distribution was applied to describe its distribution. The shape parameter and the scale parameter were given by maximum likelihood estimation. When a web game followed Weibull distribution, the lifetime parameters are calculated via Matlab. The results show that the proposed model is appropriate to estimate the web game lifetime.

In this paper, we developed linear exponential (LINEX) loss function by emerging weights to produce weighted linear exponential (WLINEX) loss function. Then we utilized WLINEX to derive scale parameter and reliability function of the Weibull distribution based on record values when the shape parameter is known. After, we estimated scale parameter and reliability function of Weibull distribution by using maximum likelihood (ML) estimation and by several Bayes estimations.  The Bayes estimates were obtained with respect to symmetric loss function (squared error loss (SEL)), asymmetric loss function (LINEX) and asymmetric loss function (WLINEX). The ML and the different Bayes estimates are compared via a Monte Carlo simulation study. The result of simulation mentioned that the proposed WLINEX loss function is promising and can be used in real environment especially at the case of underestimate where it revealed better performance than LINEX loss function for estimating scale parameter.
