Abstract:
An analytical investigation of dynamic compressor characteristics was conducted with the goal to make fundamental improvements in the modeling of dynamic compressor stage characteristics. It was determined that present state-of-the-art in modeling dynamic compressor stage characteristics is the use of steady-state characteristics derived from flow model calculations, with first-order time lag response functions applied to account for dynamic departures from the steady and quasi-steady performance predictions. This investigation developed a blade frequency response function (FRF) method for

Epidemiological data with disease characteristic information can be modelled in several ways. One way is taking each disease characteristic as a response and constructing binary or polytomous logistic regression model. Second way is using a new response which consists of disease subtypes created by cross-classification of disease characteristic levels, and then constructing polytomous logistic regression model. The former may be disadvantageous since any possible covariation between disease characteristics is neglected, whereas the latter can capture that covariation behaviour. However, cross
