Abstract
A new multivariate generalization of the increasing failure rate average (IFRA) class which can be intutively supported in terms of some averaging of the component failure rates is proposed. A piecewise approximability of the class in the bivariate case and an inequality characterizing the proposed class have been established. It has been further shown that the proposed class possesses some desirable properties which should hold for any multivariate ageing class.
