Fatigue Test by Staircase Method with Small Samples (2nd Report)

Structural Equation Modeling with Small Samples: Test Statistics.

Structural equation modeling is a well-known technique for studying relationships among multivariate data. In practice, high dimensional nonnormal data with small to medium sample sizes are very common, and large sample theory, on which almost all modeling statistics are based, cannot be invoked for model evaluation with test statistics. The most natural method for nonnormal data, the asymptoti...

A simulation-based investigation of the staircase method for fatigue strength testing

A critical evaluation of the statistics of the fatigue strength distribution as determined by the staircase (or up-and-down) method is presented. The effects of test parameters (namely, step size and sample size) were analyzed using numerical simulation to determine the accuracy of fatigue strength standard deviation calculations using traditional staircase statistics, resulting in a quantifica...

Segmental volvulus of small intestine: report of a case with an innovative method of surgery

  Absract   Intestinal malrotation is a general term used for any deviation from normal embryonic GI tract rotations. This abnormality, denotes a spectrum of conditions (non rotation, incomplete rotation) that according to the severity of anatomic consequence, can result in complications found in infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood or old age. This article, reports another case of intest...
