Abstract: | We present a construction and basic properties of a class of continuous distributions of an arbitrary form defined on a compact
(bounded) set by concatenating in a continuous manner three probability density functions with bounded support using a modified
mixture technique. These three distributions may represent growth, stability and decline stages of a physical or mental phenomenon.
