biaxial: Brown and Miller's biaxial fatigue data

In santosneto/RBS: Regression models for Birnbaum-Saunders distributions

Description

Several data sets related to the BS distribution are available in the RBS package, which have been taken from the literature on this topic.

Usage

data(biaxial)

Format

A vector containing 46 observations.

Details

Rieck and Nedelman (1991) reported a data set from Brown and Miller (1978). These data represent results of fatigue tests on 1 \% Cr-Mo-V steel. Cylindrical specimens were subjected to combined torsional and axial loads over constant-amplitude cycles until failure.
