Abstract In this paper, we propose a flexible extended quadratic hazard rate (EQHR) distribution with increasing, decreasing, bathtub and upside-down bathtub hazard rate function. The EQHR density is arc, right-skewed and symmetrical shaped. This distribution is also obtained from compounding...

Abstract Extropy was introduced as a dual complement of the Shannon entropy. In this investigation, we consider failure extropy and its dynamic version. Various basic properties of these measures are presented. It is shown that the dynamic failure extropy characterizes the distribution function...
