 MemberDescription
WeibullDistribution(Double, Double)
Initializes a new Weibull distribution.
Equals(Object)
Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
ExpectationValue(Function<(Of <(Double, Double>)>))
Computes the expectation value of the given function.
(Inherited from Distribution.)
Finalize()()()
Allows an Object to attempt to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetHashCode()()()
Serves as a hash function for a particular type.
(Inherited from Object.)
GetRandomValue(Random)
Returns a random value.
(Inherited from Distribution.)
GetType()()()
Gets the Type of the current instance.
(Inherited from Object.)
InverseLeftProbability(Double)
Returns the point at which the cumulative distribution function attains a given value.
(Overrides Distribution..::.InverseLeftProbability(Double).)
LeftProbability(Double)
Returns the cumulative probability to the left of (below) the given point.
(Overrides Distribution..::.LeftProbability(Double).)
Mean
Gets the mean of the distribution.
(Overrides Distribution..::.Mean.)
Median
Gets the median of the distribution.
(Overrides Distribution..::.Median.)
MemberwiseClone()()()
Creates a shallow copy of the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Moment(Int32)
Returns the given moment of the distribution.
(Overrides Distribution..::.Moment(Int32).)
MomentAboutMean(Int32)
Returns the given moment of the distribution, about the mean.
(Overrides Distribution..::.MomentAboutMean(Int32).)
ProbabilityDensity(Double)
Returns the probability density at the given point.
(Overrides Distribution..::.ProbabilityDensity(Double).)
RightProbability(Double)
Return the cumulative probability to the right of (above) the given point.
(Overrides Distribution..::.RightProbability(Double).)
Skewness
Ges the skewness of the distribution.
(Inherited from Distribution.)
StandardDeviation
Gets the standard deviation of the distribution.
(Inherited from Distribution.)
Support
Gets the interval over which the distribution is nonvanishing.
(Overrides Distribution..::.Support.)
ToString()()()
Returns a String that represents the current Object.
(Inherited from Object.)
Variance
Gets the variance of the distribution.
(Inherited from Distribution.)

Remarks

The Weibull distribution is a generalized form of the exponential distriubtion for which the decay probability is not constant, but instead increases with time (for shape parameters greater than one) or, less commonly, decreases with time (for shape parameters less than one). When the shape parameter is one, the Weibull distribution reduces to the exponential distribution.

The Weibull distribution is commonly used in engineering applications to model the time-to-failure of industrial componets.
