In this paper, we introduce and study a class of distributions with bilinear hazard quantile function. Various distributional properties of the class of distributions are studied. We also discuss the reliability characteristics of the class of distributions. The estimators of the parameters of...

The right truncated Gini index and mean difference are useful tools in the analysis of incomes and the left truncated versions of these functions can be employed in reliability modelling. In this paper we identify the distributions characterized by simple functional forms of these measures and...
