Abstract
The failure rate r(t) is assumed to have the shape of the "first"part of the"bathtub" model, i.e.r(t) is non-increasing for t<r and is constant for t>r. Asymptotic distribution of one of the estimates proposed earlier has been investigated in this paper. This leads to a test for the hypothesis HQ r<r0 vs H :r>r (where TQ > 0). Asymptotic expression for the power of this test under Pitman alternatives is derived. Some simulations are reported.
