| === The One-Parameter Weibull Distribution ===
| |
| | |
| The one-parameter Weibull ''pdf'' is obtained by again setting
| |
| <math>\gamma=0 \,\!</math> and assuming <math>\beta=C=Constant \,\!</math> assumed value or:
| |
| | |
| ::<math> f(T)={ \frac{C}{\eta }}\left( {\frac{T}{\eta }}\right) ^{C-1}e^{-\left( {\frac{T}{ \eta }}\right) ^{C}} \,\!</math>
| |
| | |
| where the only unknown parameter is the scale parameter, <math>\eta\,\!</math>.
| |
| | |
| Note that in the formulation of the one-parameter Weibull, we assume that the shape parameter <math>\beta \,\!</math> is known ''a priori'' from past experience on identical or similar products. The advantage of doing this is that data sets with few or no failures can be analyzed.
