We focus on estimating the stress-strength reliability model when the strength variable is subjected to the step-stress partially
accelerated life test. Based on the assumption that both stress and strength random variables follow Weibull distribution with a
common first shape parameter, the inferences for this reliability system are constructed. e maximum likelihood, two parametric
bootstraps, and Bayes estimates are obtained. Moreover, approximate confidence intervals, asymptotic variance-covariance
matrix, and highest posterior density credible intervals are derived. A simulation study and application to real-life data are
conducted to compare the proposed estimation methods developed here and also check the accuracy of the results.
1.Introduction
Stress-strength models have attracted many statisticians for
many years due to their applicability in different and diverse
areas such as engineering, economics, and quality control,
and, in the last years, there have been numerous applications
to medical and engineering problems.
In the last ten years, many authors have been interested
in studying the application of the simple stress-strength
reliability model, which is more handled theoretically and
at the same time is more simple and applicable to im-
plement in practice. is model of reliability contains a
strength variable X and a stress variable Y, which is ex-
posed to it. Such a system will properly function when X
exceeds Y; namely, R � P(X > Y) denotes the reliability
system. Many estimation studies of reliability system are
considered by several statistician researchers under both
complete and censored samples from different models, for
example, exponential distribution under progressive type-
II censoring by Saraço˘ glu et al. [1], Weibull distribution
under complete samples by Kundu and Gupta [2],
Kumaraswamy distribution under upper record values by
Nadar and Kızılaslan [3], Kumaraswamy distribution
under progressive type-II censoring by Nadar et al. [4],
Lomax distribution under record values by Mahmoud et al.
[5], Burr X distribution under complete samples by Surles
and Padgett [6], inverse Lindley distribution under com-
plete samples by Sharma et al. [7], exponential and Weibull
by Kumar and Siju [8], Weibull-Gamma distribution under
progressively type-II censored samples by Mahmoud et al.
[9], general exponential form distribution under complete
samples by Mokhlis et al. [10], Rayleigh distribution under
complete samples by Afshin [11], modified Weibull model
under progressively type-II censored samples by Soliman
et al. [12], Lindley distribution using progressively first-
failure censoring by Kumar et al. [13], generalized inverted
exponential distribution under progressively first-failure
censoring by Krishna et al. [14], Kumaraswamy expo-
nential distribution under progressively type-II censored
samples by El-Sagheer and Mansour [15], Burr XII dis-
tribution under progressively first-failure censored sam-
ples by Saini et al. [16], and generalized Maxwell failure
distribution under progressive first-failure censoring by
Saini et al. [17].
