Abstract

This paper applies approximation of the renewal function for Hjorth model and Dhillon model which show the trend change in its aging properties. We obtain the renewal function for Hjorth model and Dhillon model by a numerical solution of an approximate integral. We observe the influence of each parameter in these models. The results of the computation are described and their corresponding graphs are provided.
