摘要

In this paper, we develop a double acceptance sampling plan for half exponential power distribution when the lifetime experiment is truncated at a prefixed time. The zero and one failure schemes are considered. We obtain the minimum sample sizes of the first and second samples necessary to ensure the specified mean life at the given consumer's confidence level. The operating characteristic values and the minimum ratios of the mean life to the specified life are also analyzed. Numerical example is provided to illustrate the double acceptance sampling plan.
