Abstract

AbstractThe preservation of stochastic orders by distortion functions has become a topic of increasing interest in the reliability analysis of coherent systems. The reason of this interest is that the reliability function of a coherent system with identically distributed components can be represented as a distortion function of the common reliability function of the components. In this framework, we study the preservation of the excess wealth order, the total time on test transform order, the decreasing mean residual live order, and the quantile mean inactivity time order by distortion functions. The results are applied to study the preservation of these stochastic orders under the formation of coherent systems with exchangeable components.
