Abstract:

Hierarchical Bayesian method for estimating the failure probability under Data Only One Failure by taking the s-quasi-Beta distribution as the prior distribution is proposed in this paper. The weighted Least Squares Estimate method was used to obtain the formula for computing reliability distribution parameters under Data Only One Failure. Taking one type of electrical connectors as an example, the estimator of reliability characteristic values was obtained using the above method. Finally the feasibility of the above mentioned method was verified.
