In this paper we discuss one parameter Lindley distribution. It is suggested that it may serve as a useful reliability model. The model properties and reliability measures are derived and studied in detail. For the estimation purposes of the parameter and other reliability characteristics...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to consider a General System Configuration (GSC), whose particular cases are all the popular system configurations. In reliability engineering one comes across various system configurations, for example, series, parallel and k‐out of‐m system models,...

Purpose – This paper seeks to focus on the study and estimation of reliability characteristics of Maxwell distribution under Type‐II censoring scheme. Design/methodology/approach – Maximum likelihood estimation and Bayes estimation methods have been used for the estimation of reliability...
