A SkSP-R Plan under the Assumption of Gompertz Distribution

Abstract

In this study, we designed a time-truncated SkSP-R sampling plan when the lifetime of units follows a Gompertz distribution (GmzD). The GmzD is briefly discussed. All of the plan parameters were obtained using a two-point approach, which is based on limiting quality level (LQL) and acceptable quality level (AQL). Moreover, operating characteristic (OC) values were calculated for the determined value of the plan parameters by using the OC function of the SkSP-R. Applications of two real life situations in engineering were presented to illustrate the applicability of the offered sampling inspection plan. It was found that the new SkSP-R sampling inspection plan can be used efficiently in the field.
