Abstract

In this paper, a Bayesian accelerated life testing model is presented. The Weibull distribution is used as the life distribution and the generalised Eyring model as the time transformation function. This is a model that allows for the use of more than one stressor, whereas other commonly used acceleration models, such as the Arrhenius and power law models, allow for only one stressor. The generalised Eyring-Weibull model is used in an application, where MCMC methods are utilised to generate samples for posterior inference.
