Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2011 in the subject Veterinary medicine, grade: none, course: Health Science, language: English, abstract: Poultry provide globally important sources of animal protein and are amongst the most intensively reared of all livestock species. Diseases of poultry are therefore of major concern, both locally and on an international scale. Poultry production have been brought to the edge, because of the large numbers of infectious diseases outbreaks; that strikes the poultry farms from time to time in the absence of good hygiene. It is also important to...

Models with bathtub-shaped failure rate function are useful in reliability analysis and particularly in reliability related decision making and cost analysis. A modified Weibull distribution (MWD) was recently proposed by Lai et al.(2003) as a generalization of the two-parameter Weibull distribution. This distribution has both the two-parameter Weibull and the type I extreme value distributions as special cases. This lifetime distribution is able to model data with bathtub-shaped hazard rate, which is an important feature for engineering reliability analysis. Parameter estimation is...
