Toeplitz Jacobian Matrix for Nonlinear Periodic Vibration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The main difference between a linear system and a nonlinear system is in the non-uniqueness of solutions manifested by the singular Jacobian matrix. It is important to be able to express the ...
Internal Combustion Engine Noise Analysis With Time-Frequency Distribution
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analysis procedure, using the time-frequency distribution, has been developed for the analysis of internal combustion engine noise signals. It provides an approach making use of advantages of ...
Entropic Risk Analysis by a High Level Decision Support System for Construction SMEs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The method of entropy has been useful in evaluating inconsistency on human judgments. This paper illustrates an entropy-based decision support system called e-FDSS to the solution of multicriterion risk and decision analysis ...
Building Maintenance and Repair: Determining the Workforce Demand and Supply for a Mandatory Building-Inspection Scheme
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Prediction of Pollutant Levels in Causeway Bay Area of Hong Kong Using an Improved Neural Network Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The prediction of air quality parameters is of great interest in environmental studies today due to the health impact caused by airborne pollutants [e.g., sulfur dioxide
