Weibull distribution  

Definition

  • In probability theory and statistics, the Weibull distribution is a continuous probability distribution. It is named after Swedish mathematician Waloddi Weibull, who described it in detail in 1951, although it was first identified by Maurice René Fréchet and first applied by Rosin & Rammler (1933) to describe a particle size distribution.
