Time to failure under normal stress conditions may take a long period of time and statistical inferences under this condition is more serious. Then, the experiment is loaded under stress higher than normal one which is defined as accelerated life tests. This problem in this paper is discussed in the form of partially step-stress accelerated life test model when the lifetime of the product has Gompertz lifetime distribution and unites are fails under the two independent risks. The maximum likelihood method under type-II censoring scheme is used to formulate the point and asymptotic confidence interval estimators of model parameters. The two boot?strap methods are also used to formulate the point and approximate interval estimators. The numerical results are adopted in the form of Monte Carlo studying to illustrate, assess and compare all of the theoretical results. Finally, results are discussed in points to clarify results validity.

Abstract The experiment design may need a stress level higher than use condition which is called accelerate life tests (ALTs). One of the most ALTs appears in different applications in the life testes experiment is partially step stress ALTs. Also, the experiment items is failure with several fatal risk factors, the only one is caused to failure which called competing risk model. In this paper, the partially step-stress ALTs based on Type-II censoring scheme is adopted under the different risk factors belong to Chen lifetime distributions. Under this assumption, we will estimate the model parameters of the different causes with the maximum likelihood method. The two, asymptotic distributions and the parametric bootstrap will be used to build each confidence interval of the model parameters. The precision results will be assessed through Monte Carlo simulation study.

This paper investigates the design of accelerated life test (ALT) sampling plans under progressive Type II interval censoring with random removals. For ALT sampling plans with two over-stress levels, the optimal stress levels and the allocation proportions to them are obtained by minimizing the asymptotic generalized variance of the maximum likelihood estimation of model parameters. The required sample size and the acceptability constant which satisfy given levels of producer’s risk and consumer’s risk are found. ALT sampling plans with three over-stress levels are also considered under some specific settings. The properties of the derived ALT sampling plans under different parameter values are investigated by a numerical study. Some interesting patterns, which can provide useful insight to practitioners in related areas, are found. The true acceptance probabilities are computed using a Monte Carlo simulation and the results show that the accuracy of the derived ALT sampling plans is satisfactory. A numerical example is also provided for illustrative purpose.

Consider estimating data of failure times under step-stress partially accelerated life tests based on adaptive Type-I hybrid censoring. The mathematical model related to the lifetime of the test units is assumed to follow Rayleigh distribution. The point and interval maximum-likelihood estimations are obtained for distribution parameter and tampering coefficient. Also, the work is conducted under a traditional Type-I hybrid censoring plan (scheme). A Monte Carlo simulation algorithm is used to evaluate and compare the performances of the estimators of the tempering coefficient and model parameters under both progressively hybrid censoring plans. The comparison is carried out on the basis of mean squared errors and bias.
