TLDR
In this article, the effect of changes in the scale parameters (λ 1, λ 2, λ n ) on the magnitude of X n:n λ according to reverse hazard rate and likelihood ratio orderings was investigated.
Abstract
Let X λ1 , X λ2 , …, X λ n be independent Weibull random variables with X λ i ∼ W(α, λ i ), where λ i > 0 for i = 1, …, n. Let X n:n λ denote the lifetime of the parallel system formed from X λ1 , X λ2 , …, X λ n . We investigate the effect of the changes in the scale parameters (λ1, …, λ n ) on the magnitude of X n:n λ according to reverse hazard rate and likelihood ratio orderings.

Stochastic comparisons on sample extremes of dependent and heterogenous observations

TL;DR: In this article, the ordering properties of order statistics from dependent observations are investigated and the usual stochastic order for sample minimums and the second smallest order statistic, the dispersive order and the star order for minimums of samples having proportional hazards and Archimedean survival copulas are derived.

Ordering properties of order statistics from heterogeneous exponentiated Weibull models

TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared two parallel systems with heterogeneous exponentiated Weibull components with respect to reversed hazard rate ordering and likelihood ratio ordering, and made similar comparisons for two systems with component lives following multiple outlier exponentiated weibull model.

Stochastic comparisons of parallel and series systems with heterogeneous resilience-scaled components

TL;DR: By adding a resilience parameter to the scale model, a general distribution family called resilience-scale model is introduced in this paper, including exponential, Weibull, generalized exponential, exponentiated, etc.

Stochastic comparisons of parallel systems of heterogeneous exponential components

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the reverse hazard rate of Xn:n is Schur convex in λ, which is the same as the Schur-convexity of the survival function.

Some new results on stochastic comparisons of parallel systems

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the hazard rate of a random sample of size n from an exponential distribution with common hazard rate λ ˜ = ( ni = 1 λ i ) 1 /n, the geometric mean of the λ I s s is greater than that of an independent exponential random variable X n : n.
