On reliability analysis of consecutive k -out-of- n systems with arbitrarily dependent components

Ebrahim Salehi (2016)

Applications of Mathematics

In this paper, we consider the linear and circular consecutive k -out-of- n systems consisting of arbitrarily dependent components. Under the condition that at least n - r + 1 components ( r ≤ n ) of the system are working at time t , we study the reliability properties of the residual lifetime of such systems. Also, we present some stochastic ordering properties of residual lifetime of consecutive k -out-of- n systems. In the following, we investigate the inactivity time of the component with lifetime T r : n at the system...

On some generalization of the t-transformation

Anna Dorota Krystek (2010)

Banach Center Publications

Using the Nevanlinna representation of the reciprocal of the Cauchy transform of probability measures, we introduce a two-parameter transformation U of probability measures on the real line ℝ, which is another possible generalization of the t-transformation. Using that deformation we define a new convolution by deformation of the free convolution. The central limit measure with respect to the -deformed free convolutions is still a Kesten measure, but the Poisson limit depends on the two parameters...

On some limit distributions for geometric random sums

Marek T. Malinowski (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

We define and give the various characterizations of a new subclass of geometrically infinitely divisible random variables. This subclass, called geometrically semistable, is given as the set of all these random variables which are the limits in distribution of geometric, weighted and shifted random sums. Introduced class is the extension of, considered until now, classes of geometrically stable [5] and geometrically strictly semistable random variables [10]. All the results can be straightforward...

On some shift invariant integral operators, univariate case

George A. Anastassiou, Heinz H. Gonska (1995)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

In recent papers the authors studied global smoothness preservation by certain univariate and multivariate linear operators over compact domains. Here the domain is ℝ. A very general positive linear integral type operator is introduced through a convolution-like iteration of another general positive linear operator with a scaling type function. For it sufficient conditions are given for shift invariance, preservation of global smoothness, convergence to the unit with rates, shape preserving and...
