This paper introduces a new method, named E-Bayesian estimation method, to estimate failure rate in zero-failure data. The definition of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure rate is given, based on the definition, the formulas of E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation of the failure rate were provided, and properties of the E-Bayesian estimation, i. e. relations between E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation, was discussed. Calculations were performed on practical problems, showing that the proposed new method is feasible and easy to operate.

This paper introduces a new method, named E-Bayesian estimation method, to estimate failure probability. In the case of zero-failure data, the definition of E-Bayesian estimation of failure probability is provided; moreover, the formulas of E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation and the property of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure probability are also provided. For the estimate failure probability, in the following sections we will see simple the E-Bayesian estimation method is method than hierarchical Bayesian estimation method. Finally, the calculated results of bearing show that the proposed method is feasible and convenient in engineering application.

Since Lindley and Smith introduced the idea of hierarchical prior distribution, some results have been obtained on hierarchical Bayesian method to deal with lifetime data. But all those results obtained by means of hierarchical Bayesian methods involve complicated integration compute. Though some computing methods such as Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) are available, doing integration is still very inconvenient for practical problems. This paper introduces a new method, named E-Bayesian estimation method, to estimate failure probability. In the case of one hyperparameter, the definition of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure probability is provided; moreover, the formulas of E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation and the property of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure probability are also provided. Finally, calculation on practical problems shows that the provided method is feasible and easy to perform.
