Abstract
Monte Carlo simulation studies have been conducted to provide improved techniques for fatigue data analysis with the Weibull equation. Three methods of estimating the Weibull parameters were evaluated by empirically measuring the bias associated with each method when used on data from small samples. Various methods of treating suspended data were similarly compared. Confidence bands were then developed on the basis of empirical measurements of the random dispersion of sample data from simulated Weibull populations. The results of the studies, examples of the confidence bands, and an example of their use is presented. Contributed by the ASLE Technical Committee on Bearings and Bearing Lubrication and presented at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Lubrication Engineers held in Pittsburgh, Pa., May 3–5, 1966.
