• Asymptotic behavior of a general class of mixture failure rates (2006, background): “If the support excludes 0, the situation changes significantly and we observe the well-known principle that the mixture failure rate tends to the failure rate of the strongest population (Block and Joe (1997), Block et al. (2003), Finkelstein and Esaulova (2001a)).”
• Properties of Coherent Systems with Dependent Components (2007, background): “Recently, some authors have started to study systems with dependence structures (see, for example, Baggs and Nagaraja, 1996; Block et al., 2003; Gupta, 2001; Gupta and Gupta, 2001).”
• Hazard rate ordering of order statistics and systems (2006, background): “The minimal signature of a coherent system can be obtained also from Equation (3.1) of Block et al. (2003).”
