Abstract
Open-access reader
Weibull distribution is very flexible in fitting empirical data, such as strength or time to failure. Several methods for the determination of parameters are described, including direct fitting using solvers available in universal programs. Also finding of parameters of exponential distribution is described. The use of Weibull distribution is illustrated on examples.
