Abstract
The authors deal with a reliability demonstration test with type-I censoring and present a formulation based on fuzzy-set theory. Acceptable and rejectable MTBFs are presented in terms of a fuzzy concept, and the Bayes theorem plays an important role in the formulation. The proposed life test is useful when it is difficult to specify acceptable and rejectable MTBFs strictly
