Proof load designs for estimation of dependence in a bivariate Weibull model. (English) Zbl 1373.62498

Summary: A proof load design is useful for estimation of the dependence between two strength properties of a unit when either property can only be measured by loading to failure. Here we extend the application of the proof load design to estimate the parameters of a bivariate Weibull distribution. An example concerning the bending and tensile strengths lumber is presented.
