In this paper, we introduce a new four-parameter distribution called the transmuted Weibull power function (TWPF) distribution which e5xtends the transmuted family proposed by Shaw and Buckley [1]. The hazard rate function of the TWPF distribution can be constant, increasing, decreasing, unimodal, upside down bathtub shaped or bathtub shape. Some mathematical properties are derived including quantile functions, expansion of density function, moments, moment generating function, residual life function, reversed residual life function, mean deviation, inequality measures. The estimation of the model parameters is carried out using the maximum likelihood method. The importance and flexibility of the proposed model are proved empirically using real data sets.

We propose a new generator of continuous distributions, so called the transmuted generalized odd generalized exponential-G family, which extends the generalized odd generalized exponential-G family introduced by Alizadeh et al. (2017). Some statistical properties of the new family such as; raw and incomplete moments, moment generating function, Lorenz and Bonferroni curves, probability weighted moments, Rényi entropy, stress strength model and order statistics are investigated. The parameters of the new family are estimated by using the method of maximum likelihood. Two real applications are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the suggested family.
