A Simple Normal Approximation for Weibull Distribution with Application to Estimation of Upper Prediction Limit

We propose a simple close-to-normal approximation to a Weibull random variable (r.v.) and consider the problem of estimation of upper prediction limit (UPL) that includes at least l out of m future observations from a Weibull distribution at each of r locations, based on the proposed approximation a...
