Abstract

Let x1, x2,…, xm be a random sample of m failure times under normal conditions with the underlying distribution function F(x) and Y1, Y2,…, Yn be a random sample on n failure times under accelerated conditions with the underlying distribution function G(x):

G(x)=f(F(x))

Where f(x) is the acceleration function.

In this dissertation we propose several estimators for the acceleration function f(x) and investigate their properties.
