Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a novel single acceptance sampling plan for truncated life tests.
- To utilize the Tsallis q-exponential distribution for quality characteristics.
- To evaluate the performance and applicability of the new plan.
Main Methods:
- Development of a single acceptance sampling plan based on truncated life tests.
- Derivation of the operation characteristics function.
- Calculation of optimal sample size and producer's risk.
- Comparative analysis with existing sampling plans.
Main Results:
- The proposed sampling plan's performance was evaluated using specific parameter values.
- The new plan demonstrated benefits when compared to other existing sampling plans.
- Real-world data analysis confirmed the practical utility of the proposed plan in industrial settings.
Conclusions:
- The developed single acceptance sampling plan is effective for truncated life tests under the Tsallis q-exponential distribution.
- The plan provides a valuable tool for quality assurance and reliability assessment in industry.
