On Estimation of the Stress – Strength Reliability Based on Lomax Distribution

Abstract

The present paper concerns with the problem of estimating the reliability system in the stress ? strength model under the consideration non identical and independent of stress and strength and follows Lomax Distribution. Various shrinkage estimation methods were employed in this context depend on Maximum likelihood, Moment Method and shrinkage weight factors based on Monte Carlo Simulation. Comparisons among the suggested estimation methods have been made using the mean absolute percentage error criteria depend on MATLAB program.
