چکیده

Mean residual life and failure rate functions are ubiquitously employed in reliability analysis. The term of useful period of lifetime distributions of bathtub-shaped failure rate functions is referred to the flat rigion of this function and has attracted authors and researchers in reliability, actuary, and survival analysis. In recent years, considering the change points of mean residual life and failure rate functions has been extensively utelized in determining the optimum burn-in time. In this paper we investigate the difference between the change points of failure rate and mean residual life functions of some generalized gamma type distributions due to the capability of these distributions in modeling various bathtub-shaped failure rate functions.

On changing points of mean residual life and failure rate function for some generalized Weibull distributions

The failure rate function and mean residual life function are two important characteristics in reliability analysis. Although many papers have studied distributions with bathtub-shaped failure rate and their properties, few have focused on the underlying associations between the mean residual life and failure rate function of these distributions, especially with respect to their changing points...

Generalized Birnbaum-Saunders Distribution

The two-parameter Birnbaum–Saunders (BS) distribution was originally proposed as a failure time distribution for fatigue failure caused under cyclic loading. BS model is a positively skewed statistical distribution which has received great attention in recent decades. Several extensions of this distribution with various degrees of skewness, kurtosis and modality are considered. In particular, a...

The behavior of the reliability functions and stochastic orders in family of the Kumaraswamy-G distributions

The Kumaraswamy distribution is a two-parameter distribution on the interval (0,1) that is very similar to beta distribution. This distribution is applicable to many natural phenomena whose outcomes have lower and upper bounds, such as the proportion of people from society who consume certain products in a given interval.  In this paper, we introduce the family of Kumaraswamy-G distribution, an...

BATHTUB HAZARD RATE DISTRIBUTIONS AND FUZZY LIFE TIMES

The development of life time analysis started back in the $20^{textit{th}}$ century and since then comprehensive developments have been made to model life time data efficiently. Recent development in measurements shows that all continuous measurements can not be measured as precise numbers but they are more or less fuzzy. Life time is also a continuous phenomenon, and has already been shown tha...

On Multivariate Likelihood Ratio Ordering among Generalized Order Statistics and their Spacings

The most of the results obtained about stochastic properties of generalized order statistics and their spacings in the literature are based on equal model parameters. In this paper, with less restrictive conditions on the model parameters, we prove some new multivariate likelihood ratio ordering results between two sub-vectors of GOS's as well as two sub-vectors of $p$-spacings based on two con...
