The uniformly minimum variance unbiased (UMVU), maximum likelihood, percentile (PC), least squares (LS) and weighted least squares (WLS) estimators of the probability density function (pdf) and cumulative distribution function are derived for the generalized Rayleigh distribution. This model can be used quite effectively in modelling strength data and also modeling general lifetime data. It has...

although there exist advanced models which predict beach profile for natural beaches, the behavior of the beaches in front of seawalls still suffers from the lack of appropriate theoretical models and sufficient measured data. in this paper, following the results obtained from the measurements, a beach profile evolution model is developed, using the measured probability distribution of the near...

We consider a sequence of independent and identicaly distributed (iid) random variables with absolutely continuous distribution function F(x) and probability density function (pdf) f(x). Let Rnl be the largest observation after observing nth record and R(ns) be the smallest observation after observing the nth record. Then we say Wnr = Rnl− R(ns), n > 1, as the nth record range. We will c...

Tthe Zografos–Balakrishnan-log-logistic (ZBLL) distribution is a new distribution of three parameters that has been introduced by Ramos et el. [1], and They presented some properties of the new distribution such as its probability density function, The cumulative distribution function, The  moment generating function, its hazard (failure) rate function, quantiles and moments, Rényi and Shannon ...

In this paper, the nonlinear transient vibration of a cylindrical shallow panel under lateral white noise excitation is studied. The panel is in contact with a non aging viscoelastic medium. Since the external load is a time varying random wide band process, deterministic and conventional approaches cannot be used. Instead, the evolution of the probability density function of the response is in...

This paper deals with the Legendre wavelet (LW) collocation method for the numerical solution of the radial Schrodinger equation for hydrogen atom. Energy eigenvalues for the hydrogen bound system is derived -13.6 eV. Numerical results of the ground state modes of wave function for the hydrogen R(r) or the electron probability density function, has been presented. The numerical results ha...

Order statistics arising from exponentiated gamma (EG) distribution are considered. Closed from expressions for the single and double moments of order statistics are derived. Measures of skewness and kurtosis of the probability density function of the rth order statistic for different choices of r, n and /theta are presented. Recurrence relations between single and double moments of r...

we propose a wavelet based regression function estimator for the estimation of the regression function for a sequence of ?-missing random variables with a common one-dimensional probability density function. some asymptotic properties of the proposed estimator based on block thresholding are investigated. it is found that the estimators achieve optimal minimax convergence rates over large class...
