This paper describes statistical parameter estimation to calculate collision probabilities between Mokpo Harbor Bridge and passing vessels. At first, we obtained AIS (Automatic Identification System) information from passing vessels, then after, analyzed the lateral distributions of vessel tracks and estimated the mean and the standard deviation for the distance away from bridge center, the passing course and the passing speed. The analysis results of track distribution for the distance away and the passing course are shown as normal type, otherwise the speed distribution shown as two kinds of different normal type. In addition, we testified that the usefulness of estimated parameter values through the relative comparison between the track distributions and it's normal probability distributions.

Abstract In this work, we analyze the Levy mutation operations based on the Levy probability distribution in the evolutionary programming via the mean square displacement and the distinctness. The Levy probability distribution is characterized by an infinite second moment and has been widely studied in conjunction with the fractals. The Levy mutation operators not only generate small varied offspring, but are more likely to generate large varied offspring than the conventional mutation operators. Based on this fact, we prove mathematically, via the mean square displacement and the distinctness, that the Levy mutation operations can explore and exploit a search space more effectively. As a result, one can get better performance with the Levy mutation than the conventional Gaussian mutation for the multi-valued functional optimization problems.

Stream flow data was analyzed for determining the lowflow which is the standard for river maintenance flow. Lowflow quantiles were estimated based on the parametric and nonparametric methods and two methods were compared by Monte Carlo simulation study. As the results of the parametric method, three probability distributions such as gamma-2, lognormal-2 and Weibull-2, are selected as appropriate models for stream flow data of 13 stations in Han River Basins. According to simulation results, relative bias (RBIAS) and relative root mean square error (RRMSE) of the lowflow quantiles are the smallest when the applied and population models are the same. The fame statistical properties from the nonparametric models are good within the interpolation range. Among 7 bandwidth selectors used in this study, the RRMSEs of the Park and Marron method (PM) are the smallest while those of the Shoaler and Jones method (SJ) are the largest.

This paper presents the development of the probability density function applicable for wave heights (peak-to-trough excursions) in finite water depth including shallow water depth. The probability distribution applicable to wave heights of a non-Gaussian random process is derived based on the concept of the maximum entropy method. When wave heights are limited by breaking wave heights (or water depth) and only first and second moments of wave heights are given, the probability density function developed is closed form and expressed in terms of wave parameters such as $H_m$(mean wave height), $H_{rms}$(root-mean-square wave height), $H_b$(breaking wave height). When higher than third moment of wave heights are given, it is necessary to solve the system of nonlinear integral equations numerically using Newton-Raphson method to obtain the parameters of probability density function which is maximizing the entropy function. The probability density function thusly derived agrees very well with the histogram of wave heights in finite water depth obtained during storm. The probability density function of wave heights developed using maximum entropy method appears to be useful in estimating extreme values and statistical properties of wave heights for the design of coastal structures.

The formula was proposed through the examination of probability rainfall intensity formula used in Incheon based upon recent occurrences of heavy rain and extraordinary storms. Random-time maximum annual rainfalls were estimated for durations from ten minutes to twenty-four hours from the data by Korea Meteorological Administration. Eleven types of probability distribution are considered to estimate probable rainfall depths for different storm durations at Incheon city. Three goodness-of-fit tests including Chi-square, Kolmogorov-Smirmov and framer Von Misses were used to analyze the tendency of recent rainfall. Considering maximum rainfall occurred, General Extreme Value(GEV) distribution was chosen as the appropriate probability distribution. Five types of probability rainfall formulas including Talbot type, Sherman type, Japanese type, unified type I and unified type II are considered to determine the best type for rainfall intensity at Incheon. The formula was determined considering the time of concentration of sewer system and river at Incheon city. Unified type I was chosen for its accuracy and was proposed to represent rainfall intensity of Incheon district.

현재 댐 위험도 분석 등의 사용되는 Monte Carlo Simulation 방법을 이용하는데 있어서 가장 어려운 문제이면서 약점으로 지적되어 온 것이 수리 수문학적 불확실성 변수들에 대해서 정확한 확률분포를 정의할 수 없다는 것이다. 즉 기존 매개변수적 방법들은 모집단 분포의 형태를 가정하고, 분포의 매개변수에 관한 통계적 분석을 하는 방법이다. 조사대상이 되는 모집단 분포에 관한 정보가 부족하기 때문에 어떤 가정이 곤란하거나 부정확한 가정을 전제로 하지 않고, 관측자료로부터 통계량을 분석하여 통계적 추론을 하는 방법이 필요하게 되며, 이를 비매개변수적 방법(nonparametric methods)이라고 한다.

Thomas Bayes assumed uniform prior for the location $\theta$ of a billiard ball W in his historic 1764 paper. In this study, following mathematical derivation of the uniform distribution from several assumptions that are plausible on te billiard table, it is argued that the probabilistic meaning of Bayes' uniform prior (especially in Billiard Problem) is not just sujective but logical.

Brown과 Proschan의 수리모형과 이를 일반화한 Lee와 Seoh의 시스템 수리모형이 고려된다. Brown과 Proschan의 수리모형은 시스템의 고장시 완전수리가 확률 p로, 불완전수리가 확률 1-p로 이루어지는 모형이고, Lee와 Seoh의 수리모형은 시스템 고장시 완전수리와 불완전수리의 선택이 마르코프 연쇄과정에 따라 결정되는 모형이다. 본 논문에서는, 완전수리비용과 불완전수리비용을 고려한 후, 시스템의 수명분포가 지수분포, 균일분포, Weibull분포인 경우로 나누어, 위 두 시스템 수리모형에서의 최적화가 연구된다.

A numerical approach for predicting the ultimate strength of laminate composites has been studied using the Weibull distribution of the strengths of lamina plies. The probabilistic initial failure strengths of laminates were calculated using Tsai-Hill failure criterion. The ultimate strength of the laminate composites has been predicted using progressive failure analysis. The experimental results show that the strength prediction based on the Weibull distribution of ply strength reasonably agrees well with the experimentals better than equal strength assumption.
