The model ca be cosidered as aother useful 3-parameter distributio. Model characterizatio is studied, we derive the cumulative distributio ad hazard fuctios, the desity of the order statistics ad calculate expressios for its momets ad for the momets of the order statistics. Mixture model of two Iverse Weibull-Geometric distributios is ivestigated. Estimates of parameters usig method of maximum likelihood have bee obtaied through simulatios. Two real life example are provided oe for complete data aother for cesored data to show the flexibility ad potetiality of the proposed distributio ad compariso with Iverse Weibull distributio, Iverse Expoetial Geometric distributio, Iverse Expoetial distributio ad Iverse Rayleigh distributio is also discussed.

Itroductio The iverse Weibull distributio is oe of the most commoly used lifetime distributio which ca be used i the reliability egieerig disciplie. The Iverse Weibull distributio is used to model a

I literature various other distributios have bee proposed to model lifetime model. Adamidis ad Loukas [] proposed the two-parameter expoetial-geometric distributio with decreasig failure rate. Kus [13] itroduced the expoetial-poisso distributio with decreasig failure rate ad discussed several of its properties. Adamidis, Dimitrakopoulou ad Loukas [1] proposed the exteded expoetialgeometric distributio which geeralizes the expoetial-geometric distributio. The hazard fuctio of the exteded expoetial-geometric distributio ca be mootoe decreasig, icreasig or costat ad they discussed several reliability features ad its properties. Wager, Alice ad Gauss [4] proposed the Weibull-Geometric distributio which geeralizes the expoetial-geometric distributio proposed by Adamidis, Dimitrakopoulou ad Loukas. The hazard fuctio of Weibull-Geometric distributio takes more geeral forms. The Weibull-Geometric distributio is useful for modelig uimodal failure rates. Wag ad Elbatal [0] proposed a modified Weibull geometric distributio which have mootoically icreasig, decreasig, bathtub-shaped, ad upside-dow bathtub-shaped hazard rate fuctios. Saboor, Kamal ad Ahmad [18] proposed a trasmuted expoetial Weibull distributio which have a bathtubshaped ad upside-dow bathtub-shaped hazard rate fuctios. Kacha, Neetu ad Suresh Kumar [10] proposed Geeralized Iverse Geeralized Weibull (GIGW distributios ad discussed some mathematical properties of the distributio with a real life example. Iverse distributios, amely, Iverse Gamma, Iverse Geeralized Gamma, Iverse Weibull [17], ad Iverse Rayleigh [19], have also bee studied i literature [6, 7, 9]. Kha ad Ja [11, 1] worked o mixture models ad discussed the stress-stregth problem of the systems, where the stregth follows fiite mixture of two parameter Lidley distributio ad stress follows expoetial, Lidley distributio ad mixture of two parameter Lidley distributio ad obtaied geeral expressios for the reliabilities of a system. I this paper, we itroduced a three parameter cotiuous distributio model, the Iverse Weibull Geometric Distributio (IWGD. It is the distributio of reciprocal of a variable distributed accordig to the geeralized Weibull distributio. A comprehesive descriptio of some mathematical properties of the IWGD are discussed with the hope that it will attract wider applicatios i reliability, egieerig ad other areas of research..

At a certai poit i time, 30 uits were istalled i ormal service coditios. Two causes of failure were observed for each uit that failed: the failure caused by ormal product wear ad failure caused by a accumulatio of radomly occurrig damage from power-lie voltage spikes durig electric storms. The times are:.75, 0.13, 1.47, 0.3, 1.81, 0.30, 0.65, 0.10, 3.00, 1.73, 1.06, 3.00, 3.00,.1, 3.00, 3.00, 3.00, 0.0,.61,.93, 0.88,.47, 0.8, 1.43, 3.00, 0.3, 3.00, 0.80,.45,.66. I order to compare the distributio models, we cosider criteria like log(l, AIC (Akaike Iformatio Criterio, BIC (Bayesia Iformatio Criterio, CAIC (Cosistat Akaike Iformatio Criterio ad HQIC (Haa-Qui Iformatio Criterio for the data set.
