Statistical modeling is a crucial phase for decision-making and predicting future events. Data arising from engineering-related fields have most often complex structures whose failure rate possesses mixed state behaviors (i.e., non-monotonic shapes). For the data sets whose failure rates are in the mixed state, the utilization of the traditional probability models is not a suitable choice. Therefore, searching for more flexible probability models that are capable of adequately describing the mixed state failure data sets is an interesting research topic for researchers. In this paper, we propose and study a new statistical model to achieve the above goal. The proposed model is called a new beta power very flexible Weibull distribution and is capable of capturing five different patterns of the failure rate such as uni-modal, decreasing-increasing-decreasing, bathtub, decreasing, increasing-decreasing-increasing shapes. The estimators of the new beta power very flexible Weibull distribution are obtained using the maximum likelihood method. The evaluation of the estimators is assessed by conducting a simulation study. Finally, the usefulness and applicability of the new beta power very flexible Weibull distribution are shown by analyzing two engineering data sets. Using four information criteria, it is observed that the new beta power very flexible Weibull distribution is the best-suited model for dealing with failure times data sets.

The word extreme events refer to unnatural or undesirable events. Due to the general destructive effects on society and scientific problems in various applied fields, the study of extreme events is an important subject for researchers. Many real-life phenomena exhibit clusters of extreme observations that cannot be adequately predicted and modeled by the traditional distributions. Therefore, we need new flexible probability distributions that are useful in modeling extreme-value data in various fields such as the financial sector, telecommunications, hydrology, engineering, and meteorology. In this piece of research work, a new flexible probability distribution is introduced, which is attained by joining together the flexible Weibull distribution with the weighted T-X strategy. The new model is named a new flexible Weibull extension distribution. The distributional properties of the new model are derived. Furthermore, some frequently implemented estimation approaches are considered to obtain the estimators of the new flexible Weibull extension model. Finally, we demonstrate the utility of the new flexible Weibull extension distribution by analyzing an extreme value data set.

In this paper, we propose a useful method without adding any extra parameters to obtain new probability distributions. The proposed family is a combination of the two existing families of distributions and is called a weighted sine-G family. A two-parameter special member of the weighted sine-G family, using the Weibull distribution as a baseline model, is considered and investigated in detail. Some distributional properties of the weighted sine-G family are derived. Different estimation methods are considered to estimate the parameters of the special model of the weighted sine-G family. Furthermore, simulation studies based on these different methods are also provided. Finally, the applicability and usefulness of the weighted sine-G family are demonstrated by analyzing two data sets taken from the engineering sector.

It is proven evidently that probability distributions have a significant role in data modeling for decision-making. Due to the indispensable role of probability distributions for data modeling in applied fields, a series of probability distributions have been introduced and implemented. However, most newly developed probability distributions involve between one and eight additional parameters. Sometimes the additional parameters lead to re-parametrization problems. Therefore, the development of new probability distributions without additional parameters is an interesting research topic. In this paper, we study a new probabilistic method without incorporating any additional parameters. The proposed approach is based on a tangent function and may be called a new tangent-G (NT-G) family of distributions. Certain properties of the NT-G distributions are derived. Based on the NT-G method, a new flexible probability distribution called a new tangent flexible Weibull (NTF-Weibull) distribution is studied. The parameters of the NTF-Weibull distribution are estimated using seven different estimation methods. Based on these eight estimations, a brief simulation of the NTF-Weibull distribution is also provided. Finally, we prove the applicability of the NTF-Weibull distribution by analyzing two waiting-time data sets taken from the reliability sector. We consider three statistical tests with a p-value to evaluate the performance and goodness of fit of the NTF-Weibull distribution.

We hope to assess the different processing methodologies or the effectiveness of the devices or systems applied in this nonparametric statistical test by observing the failure behavior of the recorded survival data. The proposed second-order approach of new better than used (NBU 2) will be employed, which requires that the test data behaves either like NBU 2 property or exponentially. If the survival data is NBU 2, the proposed treatment method is likely to be beneficial. If the data are exponential, on the other hand, the recommended treatment method has no positive or negative influence on patients, as shown in the application section. To establish the validity of the test, we calculated the power of the proposed test and efficiency on both complete and censored data, compared the results to those of existing tests, and then applied the test to a range of real-world data.

The purpose of the nonparametric statistical test used in this study is to compare different treatment options by looking at failure behavior in recorded survival data. Patients survival times are documented after using the proposed approach. The observed datas behavior was assumed to be based on used better than aged in the moment generating function order (UBAmgf) characteristic or a constant failure rate in this study (exponential scenario). Suppose that the survival data is UBAmgf, then the treatment or the machine or system in use produces a better or a higher expected total present value than an older machine governed by an exponential survival function; if the data is exponential, the suggested treatment strategy is ineffective (the recommended treatment approach has neither positive or negative effects on the patients). To guarantee that the suggested statistical test is used correctly, the efficiency and critical values are calculated and compared to those of other tests, and the technique is then applied to medical data.
