Theil, Basmann, and Sargan are often credited with the development of the two-stage least squares (TSLS) estimator of the coefficients of one structural equation in a simultaneous equations model. However, Anderson and Rubin had earlier derived the asymptotic distribution of the limited information maximum likelihood (LIML) estimator by finding the asymptotic distribution of what is essentially...

This paper describes the design of a 12-story apartment building on a single story basement, which has wood floor diaphragms, and structural steel gravity and lateral load resisting systems. The design objective was to develop the most cost-effective structural system while meeting building functionality goals and adhering to code requirements. The main structural and non-structural design issu...

When an econometric structural equation includes two endogenous variables and their coefficients are normalized so that their sum of squares is 1, it is natural to express them as the sine and cosine of an angle. The Limited Information Maximum Likelihood (LIML) estimator of this angle when the error covariance matrix is known has constant variance. Of all estimators with constant variance the ...

Abstract A priori bounds were derived for the flow in a bounded domain viscous-porous interfacing fluids. We assumed that viscous fluid was slow $\Omega _{1}$ Ω 1 , which governed by Boussinesq equations. For porous medium _{2}$ 2 we supposed satisfied ...

This paper considers issues related to estimation, inference and computation with multiple structural changes occurring at unknown dates in a system of equations. Changes can occur in the regression coefficients and/or the covariance matrix of the errors. We also allow arbitrary restrictions on these parameters, which permits the analysis of partial structural change models, common breaks occur...

Fluid–structure interaction (FSI) can be simulated in a monolithic way by solving the flow and structural equations simultaneously and in a partitioned way with separate solvers for the flow equations and the structural equations. A partitioned quasi-Newton technique which solves the coupled problem through nonlinear equations corresponding to the interface position is presented and its perform...

This article deals with the free in-plane vibration analysis of a frame with four arbitrary inclined members by differential transform method. Based on four differential equations and sixteen boundary and compatibility conditions, the related structural eigenvalue problem will be analytically formulated. The frequency parameters and mode shapes of the frame will be calculated for various values...

S vector autoregressions have become one of the major ways of extracting information about the macro economy. One might cite three major uses of them in macroeconometric research: for quantifying impulse responses to macroeconomic shocks; for measuring the degree of uncertainty about the impulse responses or other quantities formed from them; and for deciding on the contribution of different sh...
