RISRobustifying Conventional Outlier Detection Procedures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The conventional outlier detection procedures, such as the methods of Baarda and Pope or the t-testing procedure, determine only one outlier reliably. The approach to robustifying these procedures is as follows: (1) To ...
Application of Equiredundancy Design to M-Estimation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new method of weighting that realizes equiredundancy design is introduced, and its convergence is better than the method introduced by Koch. However, if Koch's method is modified, it gives the best results compared to ...
Finite Sample Breakdown Points of Outlier Detection Procedures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The conventional iterative outlier detection procedures (CIODP), such as the Baarda-, Pope-, or t-testing procedure, based on the least-squares estimation (LSE) are used to detect the outliers in geodesy. Since the finite ...
Reliabilities of χ<sup>2</sup>- and F Tests in Gauss-Markov Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Power and level breakdown points are used in robust statistics to determine the global reliability of a test. A method for calculating the finite-sample versions of these for tests such as χ
Acoustic Emission Based Monitoring of the Microdamage Evolution During Fatigue of Human Cortical Bone
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Stress fractures are frequently observed in physically active populations, and they are believed to be associated with microcrack accumulation. There are not many tools for realtime monitoring of microdamage formation ...
New Median Approach to Define Configuration Weakness of Deformation Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main problem in conventional deformation analysis (CDA) is that if there is more than one displaced point in a given monitoring network, the least-squares estimation (LSE) smears the disturbing effects of the displaced ...
Elastic Metasurfaces for Full Wavefront Control and Low-Frequency Energy Harvesting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Controlling and manipulating elastic/acoustic waves via artificially structured metamaterials, phononic crystals, and metasurfaces have gained an increasing research interest in the last decades. Unlike others, a metasurface ...
New Method for Outlier Diagnostics in Linear Regression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The detection of the discordant points, i.e., outliers, in linear regression models is a problem, which has been studied extensively. Huber’s
Interaction of Vibrations of Road and Rail Traffic with Buildings and Surrounding Environment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper analyzes measured triaxial vibrations of road and rail traffic on and around a typical residential masonry building in İstanbul and its response to adjacent ground-born vibrations through numerical modeling. ...
A Theoretical Investigation on the Performance and Combustion Parameters in an Spark Ignition Engine Fueled With Different Shale Gas Mixtures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a zero-dimensional (0D) single-zone combustion model was applied for predicting combustion and indicated engine parameters in a spark ignition (SI) engine. Three different shale gas mixtures, methane, and ...
