The Weibull Reliability Function

The equation for the three-parameter Weibull cumulative density function, cdf, is given by:

[math]\displaystyle{ F(t)=1-e^{-\left( \frac{t-\gamma }{\eta }\right) ^{\beta }} }[/math].

This is also referred to as Unreliability and deignated as [math]\displaystyle{ Q(t) \,\! }[/math] by some authors.


Recalling that the reliability function of a distribution is simply one minus the cdf, the reliability function for the three-parameter Weibull distribution is then given by:

[math]\displaystyle{ R(t)=e^{-\left( { \frac{t-\gamma }{\eta }}\right) ^{\beta }} }[/math]
