Abstract Reliability sampling plans are used for determining the acceptability of any product. In this paper, reliability sampling plans for acceptance or rejection of a lot of products submitted for inspection are developed when the lifetimes follow the Gumbel-uniform distribution. The sampling...

Reliability sampling plans are used to take decisions on the disposition of lots based on life testing of products. Such plans are developed taking into the consideration of relevant probability distributions of the lifetimes of the products under testing. When the quality of products varies...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is the determination of reliability sampling plans in the Bayesian approach assuming that the lifetime distribution is exponential. Design/methodology/approach – Sampling plans are used in manufacturing companies as a tool for carrying out sampling...
