✦ Synopsis

In this paper we use the total time on test transformation to establish a method for construction of parametric models of lifetime distributions having bathtub-shaped failure rate. We study a particular model which is simple compared to the other existing models. We derive expressions for moments and quantiles and treat estimation methods. Particularly, the maximum likelihood method is studied. Consistency proofs are given.

A new model is presented for the distribution of solar (and stellar) flare energies. Flares are assumed to result from energy release in multiple reconnecting current sheets (RCSs) in the solar corona. The model takes into account both the dynamical evolution of separate RCSs and their interaction b
