Since Klefsj6 (1983) defined and investigated the 55-class of life distributions, this class has attracted a great deal of attention. In this paper, we first clarify the existing characterizations of the 55-class. Then we apply these results to estimate the moments of distributions in 55 and to char
The concepts of pure-tail orderings as defined by sq-and Dorderings are shown to order the family of reliability life distributions which age smoothly in a natural way. This ordering extends to comparisons regarding the limiting behavior of the residual life, mean residual life, sojourn time between
A direct approach to measure uncertainty in the residual life time distribution has been initiated by Ebrahimi (1996, Sankhya Ser. A 58, 48-57) and explored further by Ebrahimi and Pellerey (1995) and Ebrahimi and Kirmani (1996). In this paper, some new properties of the proposed measure in connecti
