Abstract:

In economic statistical design of a control chart, the economic-loss function is minimized subject to a constrained minimum value of power, maximum value of probability of false alarms and average time to signal an expected shift. This paper is concerned with the optimum economic statistical design of the X bar chart when quality characteristic has non-normal symmetric distribution. We considered three types of distributions: Student distribution, standard Laplace distribution and logistic distribution. For each of these distributions, we calculated theoretical distribution of standardized sam

Abstract:

A bivariate diameter and height distribution yields a unified model of a forest stand. The bivariate Johnson system bounded distribution and the bivariate power-normal distribution are explored. The power-normal distribution originates from the well-known Box–Cox transformation. As evaluated by the bivariate Kolmogorov–Smirnov distance, the bivariate power-normal distribution seems to be superior to the bivariate Johnson system bounded distribution. The conditional median height given the diameter is a possible height curve and is compared with a simple hyperbolic height curve. Evaluated by th

Abstract:

Polymeric material such as low density polyethylene (LDPE) has been used for decades as insulating material. Any polymeric material will experience degradation after prolonged application of high electrical stresses. Deeper understanding of the long term electrical degradation of the insulating material is necessary to predict the life of high voltage cable. Electroluminescence method (EL) is used to detect the breakdown voltages of thin film LDPE. This method utilizes a Peltier cooled electron multiplying charge coupled device (EMCCD) camera to detect the breakdown of the sample. Statistical

Abstract:

The empirical distribution of common stock returns is a subject of interest to many researchers, as it often determines the validity of theoretical models proposed in the economics and finance studies. This paper brings to the attention the availability of two flexible systems of distributions for fitting data: the Johnson system of distributions and the Tadikamalla–Johnson system of distributions. We explore the feasibility of fitting the empirical distributions of several financial series to these two systems of distributions. Both systems of distributions are highly flexible and capable of

This article examines the flexibility of the Johnson system of distributions by assessing its performance in terms of modeling crop yields for the purpose of setting actuarially fair crop insurance premiums. Using data from corn farms in Illinois coupled with Monte Carlo simulation procedures, we found that average crop insurance premiums computed on the basis of the Johnson system provide reasonably accurate estimates even when the data are normal or come from a non-normal distribution other than the Johnson system (i.e., a beta).

The aim of this diploma thesis is to analyze ways of Value at Risk calculation. Its core is to get a suitable model that could most appropriately reflect the probability distribution of returns of the Czech stock portfolio that we have generated. In this thesis we find out that the returns follow unbounded distribution which was first described by Johnson (1949). Since we detect that returns are correlated we have to apply appropriate autoregressive process that removes this dependency. In the empirical part we discover an inability of models based on assumptions of normality, to correctly pre

Abstract:

Chapter 3 posits that the overriding objective of the Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon administrations was to avoid containment failure in the Middle East. Thwarting the Israeli nuclear weapons program was a secondary objective. As Soviet arms sales to Egypt and Syria accelerated in the mid-1960s, the regional power distribution became unfavorable and the time horizons of threats to US interests grew shorter. The Johnson administration abandoned Kennedy’s demands for inspections of the Dimona reactor and instead sold M-48 tanks, A-4 Skyhawks, and later F-12 Phantoms to bolster Israel’s defenses. Congress, however, made it difficult for the Johnson and the Nixon administrations to link arms transfers to Israeli concessions on the nuclear issue. Chapter 3 examines the evolution of the US-Israeli strategic relationship against the backdrop of the Cold War from Kennedy’s demands for inspections in 1961 through the October 1973 Middle East War.

Abstract:

Dermatology can be a challenging subject in emergency medicine. While most dermatologic complaints are benign, the clinician must be able to distinguish them from life-threatening conditions. This chapter reviews some of the most common skin disorders seen in the emergency department (ED), including adult and pediatric pathology. Patients typically present to the ED with a rash. Visual cues and the patient history are helpful in leading to the diagnosis. Knowing the distribution of common rashes and the age groups in which they typically occur can help the clinician reach the correct answer. These conditions range from an inconvenience, such as dermatitis, to the severe in the case of Stevens-Johnson syndrome.

Abstract:

Low quantities of soil nitrogen limit plant growth in the Chihuahuan Desert (Ettershank et al. 1978; Fisher et al. 1988; Lajtha and Whitford 1989; Mun and Whitford 1989) and in other deserts of the world (Wallace et al. 1980; Breman and de Wit 1983; Sharifi et al. 1988; Link et al. 1995). Indeed, although deserts are often regarded as water-limited systems, colimitation by water and N may be the more general rule (Hooper and Johnson 1999; Austin and Sala 2002). In a broad survey of desert ecosystems, Hooper and Johnson (1999) found evidence for colimitation by water and N even at the lowest levels of rainfall. In arid ecosystems, water is delivered in discrete events separated by drier periods, which restrict biological activity and uncouple plant uptake of nutrients from decomposition. Local variations in net primary production in arid and semiarid ecosystems are largely determined by processes that control the redistribution of water and soil nutrients across the landscape (Noy-Meir 1985; Schlesinger and Jones 1984; Wainwright et al. 2002; see also chapter 11). In this chapter we focus on the N cycle in different plant communities of the Jornada Basin with the recognition that after water, N is the most likely resource to determine the plant productivity of this ecosystem. Where arid environments are dominated by shrubby vegetation, the distribution of soil properties is markedly patchy with strong accumulations of plant nutrients under shrubs and relatively infertile soils in the intershrub spaces (Noy-Meir 1985). These islands of fertility are particularly well described in the Chihuahuan Desert and other areas of the American Southwest. Local accumulations of nutrients under vegetation are also documented for desert habitats on other continents, including Europe (Gallardo et al. 2000), Africa (Gerakis and Tsangarakis 1970; Belsky et al. 1989; Wezel et al. 2000), Australia (Tongway and Ludwig 1994; Facelli and Brock 2000), and South America (Rostagno et al. 1991; Mazzarino et al. 1991, 1998; Gutierrez et al. 1993). In the Jornada Basin, Schlesinger et al. (1996) used geostatistics to compare the scale of soil heterogeneity in arid habitats dominated by shrubs and in adjacent areas of arid grassland.

<em>Abstract.</em>—We reexamined a local population of Guadalupe Bass <em>Micropterus treculii </em>after cessation of a stocking program that significantly reduced the number of individuals that were hybridized with Smallmouth Bass <em>M. dolomie</em> u. Analysis of five years of post-stocking fish collection data show that the percentage of hybrids has increased in all four study sections of the upper Guadalupe River since stocking stopped. We found that hybridization had increased from 0.0% to 9.9% in Johnson Creek, 19.8% to 28.8% in North Fork Guadalupe River, 5.6% to 12.0% in South Fork Guadalupe River, and 24.2% to 26.5% in Guadalupe River main stem sections. This represents an average increase of 6.8% for all streams combined (range = 2.2–9.9%) from the last year of stocking. We also examined hybridization levels in individual stream fragments created by instream barriers (<em>n </em>= 76) to assess spatial variability along tributary and main stem corridors. Although hybridization appears to be increasing on a stream-wide basis, finer scale analysis show that hybrid distribution was spatially complex and there was a substantial portion of the study area with little or no hybridization. There were gradients of decreasing hybridization in an upstream direction in each of the tributaries and marked break points upstream of which hybridization was considerably lower (<10%). We also found that hybridization was highly variable among individual stream fragments (range 0%–71.4%) including those immediately adjacent to one another. These findings suggest that instream barriers may restrict genetic mixing throughout the system and contribute to partial isolation of populations within stream fragments. As such, further targeted intervention efforts are likely necessary to further reduce hybridization in fragments that still contain high proportions of hybrids. The patchy distribution that we observed may be a critical component to consider in assessment and restoration efforts; not only for Guadalupe Bass but also in other endemic black basses threatened by hybridization.

Abstract:

There are many relationships between ecosystem properties and species (Jones and Lawton, 1995) with the potential links described by five hypotheses: 1. The null hypothesis claims that there is no effect of species diversity on ecosystem processes. The following hypotheses imply biological mechanisms. 2. The diversity–stability hypothesis predicts that ecosystem productivity and recovery increase as the number of species increases (Johnson et al. 1996). 3. The rivet hypothesis predicts a threshold in species richness, below which ecosystem function declines steadily and above which changes in species richness are not reflected by changes in ecosystem function (Ehrlich and Ehrlich 1981; Vitousek and Hooper 1993). 4. The redundant species hypothesis states that species loss has little effect on ecosystem processes if the losses are within the same functional group (Walker 1992) 5. The idiosyncratic response hypothesis suggests that as diversity changes so do ecocosystem processes (Lawton 1994, Lawton and Brown 1994). There have been both field and laboratory attempts to test these hypotheses, (Naeem and Li 1998), however, the interpretation and the generality of the results remain contentious (Tilman 1999). A fundamental reason for such uncertainty is that the hypotheses are not driven by a comprehensive theory of the relationship between species properties and ecosystem processes (Tilman et al., 1997). We propose that the foundations for the necessary theory are in models of the distribution of resources and their utilization by organisms. This is because ecosystem processes such as primary production, decomposition, mineralization, and evapotranspiration are dependent on the processing of resources by the species that are producers, consumers, and decomposers. A theory that links the direct participation of species in ecosystem processes may resolve differences among the various hypotheses or identify how they complement each other. From a community perspective, a theory of resource utilization is based on two alternative assumptions: 1. The rate of ecosystem processes is determined by the few species that are most efficient in using and converting resources. For example, in a desert system, dominant species are those that are proficient in using water for biomass production or in converting inorganic matter into organic materials.

Abstract:

This chapter reviews the geological context of Florida’s springs and the St. Johns River valley. This provides a basis for understanding the abundance of springs in Florida and the forces that drive their geographic distribution and hydrology. The chapter begins with a sketch of the geologic history of the Florida Platform and the formation of the karst Floridan Aquifer system, with emphasis on those events and processes relevant to springs. This is followed by a discussion of the environmental factors affecting spring flow and how these were impacted by global and regional climatic changes during the late Pleistocene and Holocene. Finally, it discusses the geomorphology of the St. Johns River valley and the springs that feed into it.

Abstract:

The interfacial relationship between a glass fiber bundle and epoxy resin is investigated both experimentally and computationally. A cylindrical notched specimen with a single bundle of fibers along the axis is created to observe debonding behavior. All specimens reached a critical stress value and exhibited debonding to some degree. All material properties are obtained experimentally. The Johnson-Cook failure model is used to simulate the experimental results. The computational model exhibits realistic stress distribution as well as calculates element deletion to simulate interfacial debondin

Abstract:

To analyze AISI 52100 steel response in hard turning under pre-stressed conditions, an explicit dynamic thermo-mechanical finite element model (FEM) has been developed. The FEM adopts Johnson-Cook constitutive model to describe the workpiece material property; and Johnson-Cook failure model as chip separation criterion; a modified coulomb’s friction law determines the friction behavior at the tool/chip interface. 500MPa of tensile and compressive pre-stress are imposed on the workpiece to simulate the pre-tension-stress and pre-compression-stress conditions respectively in hard turning.

Abstract:

Abstract The aim of the present work is to extend the applicability of Oxley’s analysis of machining to a broader class of materials beyond the hot rolled low-carbon steel used by Oxley and coworkers. The Johnson-Cook material model has been chosen to represent the mechanical properties of the material being machined as a function of strain, strain rate and temperature. Necessary changes have been made to Oxley’s analysis to make it self-consistent for this material model. A new approach has been introduced to calculate the pressure variation along the beta slip lines in the primary shear zone

Abstract:

Optimal transport has received much attention during the past few years to deal with domain adaptation tasks. The goal is to transfer knowledge from a source domain to a target domain by finding a transportation of minimal cost moving the source distribution to the target one. In this paper, we address the challenging task of privacy preserving domain adaptation by optimal transport. Using the Johnson-Lindenstrauss transform together with some noise, we present the first differentially private optimal transport model and show how it can be directly applied on both unsupervised and semi-supervi

Abstract:

A numerical, two-dimensional hydrodynamic model of the Mississippi River, from Thebes, IL, to Tiptonville, TN (128 miles/206 km), was developed using the Adaptive Hydraulics model. The study objective assessed current patterns and flow distributions and their possible impacts on navigation due to Birds Point New Madrid Floodway (BPNMF) operations and the Len Small (LS) levee break. The model was calibrated to stage, discharge, and velocity data for the 2011, 2015–2016, and 2017 floods. The calibrated model was used to run four scenarios, with the BPNMF and the LS breach alternately active/open
