Abstract
A model incorporating the effect of a common environment on several components (structurally independent) of a system is developed. A multivariate generalization of the Lomax (Pareto type 2) distribution is obtained by mixing exponential variables. Its relationship to other multivariate distributions is discussed. Several properties of this distribution are reported and their usefulness in reliability theory indicated. Finally, a further generalization of this multivariate Lomax distribution is presented.
