摘要
Since the turn of the century, several papers have appeared in reliability journals (including the IEEE Transactions on Reliability) which claim to have proposed new modifications of the traditional Weibull distribution. It is pointed out here that the proposed distributions are either not new, or arise from a representation suggested by Gurvich et al. [1]. A modification is suggested that contains all of the proposed distributions as particular cases.
