Result
The book has the following results:
- Beta = 0.753, Lambda = 1.53
- [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\chi ^{2} }[/math] = 5.5, critical value = 7.8 (Assume significance level = 0.1. Since [math]\displaystyle{ \,\!\chi ^{2} }[/math] < critical value can fail to reject hypothesis that the Crow-AMSAA model fits the data).
Results in RGA
In RGA, the Crow-AMSAA (NHPP) model with the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) method was used to calculate the results.
- The model parameters are:
- The chi-squared goodness-of-fit test results:
- Failure intensity vs. time plot:
