The component cause of failure for the Weibull series distribution.

The component cause of failure for the Weibull series distribution.

wei_series_cause(k, shapes, scales, t = NA, mc = FALSE, n = 10000L)

Arguments

k

component index

shapes

shape parameters for Weibull component lifetimes

scales

scale parameters for Weibull component lifetimes

t

lifetime of system, NA if unconditional distribution of Ki

mc

logical, if TRUE, use monte carlo integration instead, which may be more robust for some parameters, particularly small shape parameters

Value

the probability that component k is the cause of failure, for the unconditional random variable Ki
