Abstract

Recently, proportional mean residual life model has received a lot of attention after the importance of the model was discussed by Zahedi [17]. In this paper, we define dynamic proportional mean residual life model and study its properties for different aging classes. The closure of this model under different stochastic orders is also discussed. Many examples are presented to illustrate different properties of the model.
