Hierarchical Bayes Estimation of Reliability Indexes of Cold Standby Series System under General Progressive Type II Censoring Scheme

摘要

In this paper, hierarchical Bayes approach is presented for estimation and prediction of reliability indexes and remaining lifetimes of a cold standby series system under general progressive Type II censoring scheme. A simulation study has been carried out for comparison purpose. The study will help reliability engineers in various industrial series system setups.
