Comparison of Coherent Systems with Dependent Components Based on ‌‎the ‎Reversed Mean Residual Life Order

In this paper, a new representation of the mean inactivity time of a coherent system with dependent identically distributed (DID) components is obtained. This representation compares the mean inactivity times of two coherent systems. Some sufficient conditions such that one coherent system dominates another system concerning ageing faster order in the reversed mean and variance residual life order are also discussed. These results are derived based on a representation of the system reliability function as a distorted function of the common reliability function of the components. Some examples are given to explain the results.
