Two devices are subjected to common shocks arriving according to two identical counting processes. Let and denote the probability of surviving k shocks for the first and the second device, respectively. We find conditions on the discrete distributions and in order to obtain the failure rate order (FR), the likelihood ratio order (LR) and the mean residual order (MR) between the random lifetimes of the two devices. We also obtain sufficient conditions under which the above mentioned relations between the discrete distributions are verified in some cumulative damage shock models.

A single device shock model is studied. The device is subject to some damage process. Under the assumption that as the cumulative damage increases, the probability that any additional damage will cause failure increases, we find sufficient conditions on the shocking process so that the life distribution will be increasing failure rate.

In this paper we study reliability properties of consecutive-k-out-of-n systems with exchangeable components. For 2k ≦ n, we show that the reliability functions of these systems can be written as negative mixtures (i.e. mixtures with some negative weights) of two series (or parallel) systems. Some monotonicity and asymptotic properties for the mean residual lifetime function are obtained and some ordering properties between these systems are established. We prove that, under some assumptions, the mean residual lifetime function of the consecutive-k-out-of-n: G system (i.e. a system that functions if and only if at least k consecutive components function) is asymptotically equivalent to that of a series system with k components. When the components are independent and identically distributed, we show that consecutive-k-out-of-n systems are ordered in the likelihood ratio order and, hence, in the mean residual lifetime order, for 2k ≦ n. However, we show that this is not necessarily true when the components are dependent.

In this paper we focus on providing sufficient conditions for some well-known stochastic orders in reliability but dealing with the discrete versions of them, filling a gap in the literature. In particular, we find conditions based on the unimodality of the likelihood ratio for the comparison in some stochastic orders of two discrete random variables. These results have interest in comparing discrete random variables because the sufficient conditions are easy to check when there are no closed expressions for the survival functions, which occurs in many cases. In addition, the results are applied to compare several parametric families of discrete distributions.

Predator Prey Models

In this paper we study the global dynamics of stochastic predator-prey models with non constant mortality rate and Holling type II response. Concretely, we establish sufficient conditions for the extinction and persistence in the mean of autonomous stochastic model and obtain a critical value between them. Then by constructing appropriate Lyapunov functions, we prove that there is a nontrivial positive periodic solution to the non-autonomous stochastic model. Finally, numerical examples are introduced to illustrate the results developed.

Abstract We propose and study a stochastic delay single-species population system in polluted environment with psychological effect and pulse toxicant input. We establish sufficient conditions for the extinction, nonpersistence in the mean, weak persistence, and strong persistence of the single-species population and obtain the threshold value between extinction and weak persistence. Finally, we confirm the efficiency of the main results by numerical simulations.
