2010 ITE Winter Annual Convention

ASCE 1994 Annual Convention & Exposition

The Miami Conservancy District built five flood control dams after the catastrophic flood of 1913 in Dayton, Ohio. Lockington Dam was one of these five hydraulic fill structures. The Ohio State Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) issued new regulations in 1981 requiring that design flood for class I dams be considered equal to the Probable Maximum Flood (PMF). Flood routing studies performed...

Additive Combinatorics ( Winter 2010 )

For A,B subsets of an additive group Z, we define A + B to be the sumset {a + b : a ∈ A, b ∈ B}, and kA to be the k-fold sum A + A + · · · + A of A. We also let A−B = {a−b : a ∈ A, b ∈ B} and b+A = {b}+A for a single element set {b}, a translate of A. Note that A − A is not 0 unless |A| = 1. We let k ¦ A = {ka : a ∈ A}, a dilate of A. There are many obvious properties of “+” that can be checked...

Annual Report 4 , Winter 2013

We study eective inference strategies for monotone trend functions in the presence of short range and long range dependence. Isotonic regression, which does not require specication of tuning parameters, is invoked to estimate the monotone trend. The problem of constructing reliable condence intervals for the trend function is addressed via the use of appropriate discrepancy statistics which ari...
