Further Results Involving the Mit Order and the Imit Class

Abstract: The purpose of this article is to study several preservation properties of the mean inactivity time order under the reliability operations of convolution, mixture, and shock models. In that context, the increasing mean inactivity time class of lifetime distributions is characterized by means of right spread order and increasing convex order. Some applications in reliability theory are described. Finally, a new test of such a class is discussed.

“…When H 0 is rejected, and thus F is DRHR, estimating F as well as other related functions, such as the mean inactivity time (MIT), is an interesting and open problem. Also, it would be interesting to study a similar approach to the increasing mean inactivity time (IMIT) class [19][20][21], and other related classes.…”

“…In particular, if r = 1, thenm 1 (t) represents a function called the mean idle time or inactivity time (MIT) or reversed residual life (MRRL) function that indicates the expected inactive life length for a unit which is first observed down at age t. The properties of MIT function have been explored by Ahmad et al (2005) and Kayid and Ahmad (2004).…”

“…The MRRL of X can be obtained by setting n = 1 in the above equation. The properties of the mean inactivity time have been considered by many authors, see e.g., Kayid and Ahmad (2004) and Ahmad et al (2005).…”
