Comparisons of Coherent Systems' Lifetimes in the Increasing Convex Order
Stochastic orders have been widely used in reliability literature to compare the performances of coherent systems, and various criteria have been provided on this purpose. In particular, sufficient conditions have been found for the lifetime of a system to be stochastically larger than that of another system having the same components with identically distributed lifetimes but a different structure function. Known results of this kind concern some of the most relevant stochastic orders, but in the literature no conditions have been provided for the well-known increasing convex order (icx). Here we describe conditions such that two lifetimes of coherent systems are comparable in this stochastic sense when conditions for other stronger orders do not apply. Illustrative examples are also given.
期刊介绍:
ASMBI - Applied Stochastic Models in Business and Industry (formerly Applied Stochastic Models and Data Analysis) was first published in 1985, publishing contributions in the interface between stochastic modelling, data analysis and their applications in business, finance, insurance, management and production. In 2007 ASMBI became the official journal of the International Society for Business and Industrial Statistics (www.isbis.org). The main objective is to publish papers, both technical and practical, presenting new results which solve real-life problems or have great potential in doing so. Mathematical rigour, innovative stochastic modelling and sound applications are the key ingredients of papers to be published, after a very selective review process.
The journal is very open to new ideas, like Data Science and Big Data stemming from problems in business and industry or uncertainty quantification in engineering, as well as more traditional ones, like reliability, quality control, design of experiments, managerial processes, supply chains and inventories, insurance, econometrics, financial modelling (provided the papers are related to real problems). The journal is interested also in papers addressing the effects of business and industrial decisions on the environment, healthcare, social life. State-of-the art computational methods are very welcome as well, when combined with sound applications and innovative models.
