Shifted stochastic orders are a useful tool for establishing interesting inequalities. Two such stochastic orders are the up hazard rate order and the up likelihood ratio order. In this article, we give some results on the preservation of the above orderings between the components under the formation of coherent systems with different structures. Both the cases when components either identically distributed or not necessary identically distributed are discussed. Finally, we provide some applications to Poisson and non-homogeneous Poisson shock models.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
