The linearly decreasing stress Weibull (LDSWeibull): a new Weibull-like distribution

Abstract Motivated by an engineering pullout test applied to a steel strip embedded in earth, we show how the resulting linearly decreasing force leads naturally to a new distribution, if the force under constant stress is modeled via a three-parameter Weibull. We term this the LDSWeibull distributi...
