The root cause for this behavior was identified as the sensitivit… Show more

“…Traditional EM analysis with two-parameter lognormal fitting leads to unacceptably short lifetime projections for such failure distributions. As discussed by the current authors [5], a more appropriate three-parameter lognormal distribution model can better fit the data and produce more reasonable projections. In this paper, we discuss the application of a three-parameter lognormal model in EM data analysis.…”

“…In what follows we will denote by T the random variable representing the failure time distributed in accordance with (1). The major visual difference between a two-parameter and a three-parameter lognormal distribution is a straight line vs. a downward bending curve at the early fail portion (for a positive X 0 ) in the normal probability plot for logarithms of failure times [5,9]. The difference between these two distributions depends heavily on the shape factor, r, and the difference between t 50 and X 0 .…”
