K1 Marshall-Olkin procedure
AB This paper presents a three-parameter family of distributions which includes the commonexponential and the Marshall–Olkin exponential as special cases. This distribution exhibits amonotone failure rate function, which makes it appealing for practitioners interested in reliability,and means it can be included in the catalogue of appropriate non-symmetric distributions tomodel these issues, such as the gamma and Weibull three-parameter families. Given the lack ofsymmetry of this kind of distribution, various statistical and reliability properties of this model areexamined. Numerical examples based on real data reflect the suitable behaviour of this distributionfor modelling purposes.
