A new class of life distributions, namely new better than used in convex ordering (NBUC), and its dual, new worse than used in convex ordering (NWUC), are introduced. Their relations to other classes of life distributions, closure properties under three reliability operations, and heritage properties under shock model and Laplace-Stieltjes transform are discussed.

Recently Li and Yam (2005) studied which ageing properties for series and parallel systems are inherited for the components. In this paper we provide new results for the increasing convex and concave orders, the increasing mean residual life (IMRL), decreasing failure rate (DFR), the new worse than used in expectation (NWUE), the increasing failure rate in average (IFRA), the decreasing failure rate in average (DFRA), and the new better than used in the convex order (NBUC) ageing classes.
