A class of generalized bivariate Marshall-Olkin distributions, which includes as special cases the Marshall-Olkin bivariate exponential distribution and the Marshall-Olkin type distribution due to Muliere and Scarsini (1987) [19] are examined in this paper. Stochastic comparison results are...

We study here extremes of residuals of the bivariate lifetime and the residual of extremes of the two lifetimes. In the case of generalized Marshall–Olkin model and the total time transformed exponential model, we first present some sufficient conditions for the extremes of residuals to be...

Intuitively, activating the standby of a k-out-of-n:G system to the working state at the last moment fully utilizes the redundancy and hence would result in a more reliable system; however, this is not always true as shown in a counterexample. This paper presents several scenarios under which,...

Ordering properties on order statistics from heterogeneous observations have been paid lots of attention. This article devotes to investigating the ordering properties on order statistics from statistically dependent observations. We build the likelihood ratio order and the (reversed) hazard...

For heterogeneous Weibull samples with a common shape parameter and weakly majorized scale parameters, we study the likelihood ratio order and the stochastic order between minimums of independent and dependent samples, respectively. Also, an application in fabric strength is presented.
