Abstract :A new four-parameter probability model, referred to the exponentiated Weibull Rayleigh (EWR) distribution, is introduced. Essential statistical properties of the distribution are considered. The maximum likelihood estimators of population parameters are given in case of complete sample. Simulation study is carried out to estimate the model parameters of EWR distribution. Additionally, parameter estimators are given in case of Type II censored samples. We come up with two applications to confirm the usefulness of the proposed distribution.Keywords : Exponentiated Weibull-G family of distributions, Maximum likelihood estimation, Moments, Order statistics, Rayleigh distribution, Characterizations.
