abstract profile monitoring in statistical quality control has attracted attention of many researchers recently. a profile is a function between response variables and one or more independent variables. there have been only a limited number of researches on monitoring multivariate profiles. indeed, monitoring correlated multivariate profiles is a new subject in the fileld of statistical process...

small area estimation is a technique used to estimate parameters of subpopulations with small sample sizes.  small area estimation is needed  in obtaining information on a small area, such as sub-district or village.  generally, in some cases, small area estimation uses parametric modeling.  but in fact, a lot of models have no linear relationship between the small area average and the covariat...

Based on a hierarchical modular modeling the large nonlinear systems of differential algebraic equations arising from industrial applications in electric circuit simulation or in dynamic process simulation of chemical plants can be structured into subsystems. Parallelized numerical methods for solving such systems are considered at the level of nonlinear and linear equations. Merging subsystems...

Linear model based predictive control (MBPC) has many advantages but also drawbacks over nonlinear MBPC. In this paper a possibility of using Linear MBPC to control nonlinear systems is investigated. Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy models are chosen as the model structure. Local linear models can be derived from the linear rule consequents in a straightforward way. Each sample time a local linear model is ...

the purpose of this paper is to studying nonlinear k-ε turbulence models and its advantages in internal combustion engines, since the standard k-ε model is incapable of representing the anisotropy of turbulence intensities and fails to express the reynolds stresses adequately in rotating flows. therefore, this model is not only incapable of expressing the anisotropy of turbulence in an engine c...

This paper describes an approach to transform a Structural Operational Semantics given as a set of deduction rules to a Linear Process Specification. The transformation is provided for deduction rules in De Simone format, including predicates. The Linear Process Specifications are specified in the syntax of the mCRL2 language, that, with help of the underlying (higher-order) re-writer/tool-set,...

Friction welding is widely used in various industries. In friction welding, heat is generated by conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy at the interface the work pieces during pin rotation under pressure. A three-dimensional thermo mechanical simulation of friction stir welding (FSW) processes is carried out for Aluminium Alloys of 6061and 7050 where the simulation results are comp...

the purpose of this paper is to study the strong convergence of an implicit iteration process with errors to a common fixed point for a finite family of asymptotically pseudocontractive mappings and nonexpansive mappings in normed linear spaces. the results in this paper improve and extend the corresponding results of xu and ori, zhou and chang, sun, yang and yu in some aspects.
