A Sensitivity Analysis Workflow for Power Series Compounded Lifetime Models: Evidence From Weibull Power Series Fits

open access: yesQuality and Reliability Engineering International, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a practical procedure to quantify the time varying influence of parameters on hazard functions for power series compounded lifetime models. The procedure combines likelihood based fitting with a two stage sensitivity analysis and applies to a range of baselines and compounding laws.

Seismic risk of structures

open access: yes, 2018
From the perspective of disasters, risk has been defined in order to carry out its management, as well as to control the possible economic, social and environmental consequences that may occur in a specific area and time. This means that to estimate the risk it is necessary to take into account, from a multidisciplinary point of view, not only the ...
