Abstract
- In this paper we study the properties of total time on test transforms of order n and examine their applications in reliability analysis. It is shown that the successive transforms produce either distributions with increasing or bathtub-shaped failure rates or distributions with decreasing or upside bathtub-shaped failure rates. The ageing properties of the baseline distribution is compared with those of transformed distributions, and a partial order based on nth-order transforms and their implications are discussed.
