This investigation is aimed to develop a model of experimental-computation determination of a support moment of a cantilever beam loaded with concentrated force at its end including the optimal choice of coordinates of deflection data points and parameters of transformation of deflection data in case of insufficient accuracy of the assignment of initial parameters (support settlement, angle of rotation of the bearing section) and cantilever beam length. The influence of distribution and characteristics of sensors on the cantilever beam on the accuracy of determining the support moment which improves in the course of transition from the uniform distribution of sensors to optimal non-uniform distribution is shown. On the basis of the theory of inverse problems the method of transformation reduction at numerical differentiation of deflection functions has been studied. For engineering evaluation formulae of uncertainty estimate to determine a support moment of a cantilever beam at predetermined uncertainty of measurements using sensors have been obtained.

In this survey, we present a modified inverse moment estimation of parameters and its applications. We use a specific model to demonstrate its principle and how to apply this method in practice. The estimation of unknown parameters is considered. A necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of maximum-likelihood estimates of the parameters is obtained for the classical maximum likelihood estimation. Inverse moment and modified inverse moment estimators are proposed and their properties are studied. Monte Carlo simulations are conducted to compare the performances of these estimators. As far as the biases and mean squared errors are concerned, modified inverse moment estimator works the best in all cases considered for estimating the unknown parameters. Its performance is followed by inverse moment estimator and maximum likelihood estimator, especially for small sample sizes.

We consider estimation of the right-tail probability in a half-triangle distribution, and also consider inference on reliability, and derive the k-th moment of ratio of two independent half-triangle distributions with different supports. As we define a skew-symmetric random variable from a symmetric triangle distribution about origin, we derive its k-th moment.

A new bivariate linear failure rate distribution is introduced through a shock model. It is proved that the marginal distributions of this new bivariate distribution are linear failure rate distributions. The joint moment generating function of the bivariate distribution is derived. Mixtures of bivariate linear failure rate distributions are also discussed. Application to a real data is given.

The moment equations of the concentration distribution for the multi-region model are derived using the method of moment. The method originally devised by Aris is to obtain the concentration moments satisfying a given PDE (Partial Differential Equation. The method of moment is used to obtain the first five moments (0th to 4to) that satisfy the model PDE. Each moment of the concentration distribution for the model equation is plotted for the dimensionless time and gave similar results except the skewness and the kurtosis. The results of the analysis show the physical meaning of each moment. The comparisons with the number of regions or the global interaction coefficient give a possibility to determine the parameters of the multi-region model with the analytical concepts.

Gamma distributions are some of the most popular models for hydrological processes. In this paper, a very flexible family which contains the gamma distribution as a particular case is introduced. Evidence of flexibility is shown by examining the shape of its pdf and the associated hazard rate function. A comprehensive treatment of the mathematical properties is provided by deriving expressions for the nth moment, moment generating function, characteristic function, Renyi entropy and the asymptotic distribution of the extreme order statistics. Estimation and simulation issues are also considered. Finally, a detailed application to drought data from the State of Nebraska is illustrated.

This paper presents a numerical study of pile force distribution in a pile group foundation subjected to vertical load and large moment. The physical modeling of a pile foundation for a wind turbine is analyzed using 3D finite element software, PLAXIS 3D. The soil profile consists of several clay layers, which are modeled as Mohr-Coulomb material in an undrained condition. The piles in the pile group foundation are modeled as special elements called embedded pile elements. To model the problem of a pile group foundation, a small gap is created between the pile cap and underlying soil. The pile cap is modeled as a rigid plate element connected to each pile by a hinge. As a result, applied vertical load and large moment are transferred only to piles without any load sharing to underlying soil. Results of the study focus on pile load distribution for the square shape of a pile group foundation. Mathematical expression is proposed to describe pile force distribution for the cases of vertical load and large moment and purely vertical load.

철근콘크리트 구조물의 사용성을 검토할 때 처짐은 가장 중요한 사항 중 하나이며, 철근콘크리트 휨 부재의 처짐은 일반적으로 유효 단면2차모멘트의 개념을 적용하여 구해진다. 기준에서 유효 단면2차모멘트는 Branson이 제안한 식을 사용하고 있지만, 이 식은 등분포하중을 전제로 제안된 식이므로 다른 하중상태에서 기준식의 정확성에 대해 검증할 필요가 있다. 따라서, 이 연구에서는 콘크리트 강도와 지점에서부터 가력점까지의 거리를 주요변수로 하여 총 6개의 철근콘크리트 보 실험체를 제작하여 구조실험을 수행하고, 실험결과를 기준식 및 다른 연구자들이 제안한 식과 비교 분석하였다. 실험결과, 보의 유효 단면2차모멘트는 모멘트 분포 형상에 따라 다소 차이가 있었으며, 일반강도 실험체보다 고강도 실험체에서 차이가 더 크게 나타났다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 모든 실험체에 대하여 이론값들이 실험으로부터 구한 유효 단면2차모멘트를 근사하게 예측할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

This paper describes strain distribution analysis of a multiple parallel plate structure for a multi-componenet force and moment sensor. A parallel plate structure which has higher rigidity than a simple beam structure are widely used for multi-component force and moment sensor. The strain distribution in the beams of a parallel plate structure should be accurately calculated to design a high precision multi-component force and moment sensor. We derived equations to calculate the strains for multiple parallel plate structure. It reveals that results from finite element analysis and experiment are in good agreement with results from the derived equations.

GEV분포는 세계 여러 나라에서 홍수와 극한강우 등의 빈도분포로 널리 활용되고 있다. L-모멘트법은 GEV분포의 매개변수 추정을 위해 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 추정법이다. 본 연구에서는 Monte Carlo 실험을 이용하여 GEV분포를 따르는 서로 다른 두 지점의 자료의 교차상관계수를 이용하여 L-모멘트 추정값인 L-변동계수와 L-왜도계수들 간의 교차상관계수를 Simple Power 함수를 이용하여 유도하였다. 실험과정에서 생성된 비현실적이며 실험결과에 큰 영향을 미치는 음수값들을 배재한 GEV+분포를 이용하였다. 결과로, Simple Power 함수가 두지점간 자료의 교차상관과 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 교차상관 계수의 관계를 잘 모사하고 있음을 확인하였다. 다양한 GEV 분포의 매개변수 조합에 대한 Simple Power 함수의 매개변수 추정값과 정확성은 표로 제시하였다. 또한 위 연구결과를 활용할 수 있는 Generalised Least Square(GLS) 지역회귀 기법에 대해 설명하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서 도출된 관계식은 향후 GLS 회귀식을 이용한 GEV 분포의 지역 매개변수를 추정하는데 있어 L-모멘트 추정값들간의 정확한 교차상관관계를 제시할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.
