In a previous study, multiple regression techniques were applied to Flight Operations Quality Assurance-derived data to develop parsimonious model(s) for fuel consumption on the Boeing 757 airplane. The present study examined several data mining algorithms, including neural networks, on the fuel consumption problem and compared them to the multiple regression results obtained earlier. Using reg...

To more accurately predict the fatigue life of components under action random loads, it is necessary to explore influence interaction between load sequence and on prediction. Based Manson-Halford method Corten-Dolan model, this paper establishes a cumulative damage model that takes into account both order also loads near limit. The mechanical parts can be calculated through which provides theor...

Amyloid disease is rare as a complication of ankylosing spondylitis. The autopsies of Teilum and Lindahl (1954) included two such cases but no clinical details were given. A third case, in which the final histological diagnosis was also made at autopsy, was reported by Halford and Clark (1957). The aim of this paper is to report three cases of ankylosing spondylitis in which the presence of amy...

To meet the needs of all couples, marriage educators and practitioners must understand diversity in regard to family development and composition. This includes the recognition and consideration of developmental and couple dynamic differences between couples in first marriages and those who marry and have children from a previous relationship (Halford et al. 2003). An understanding of the unique...

bite in which the results were satisfactory. This mode of treating poisoning not only by snake-bites but by chloroform, hydrocyanic acid, and other toxic agents, among which pyaemia is mentioned, and cholera suggested, has evidently been received with much confidence in Australia, and the matter is fully and ably discussed in the paper in question. The subject also of the structural changes in ...
