Abstract (sommario):

Abstract: Nested balanced incomplete block (NBIB) designs are useful when the experiments are conducted to deal with experimental situations when one nuisance factor is nested within the blocking factor. Similar to block designs, trend may exist in experimental units within sub‐blocks or within blocks in NBIB designs over time or space. A necessary and sufficient condition, for a nested block design to be trend‐free at sub‐block level, is derived. Families and catalogues of NBIB designs that can be converted into trend‐free NBIB designs at sub‐block and block levels have been obtained. A NBIB design with sub‐block size 2 has a one to one correspondence with designs for diallel crosses experiments. Therefore, optimal block designs for dialled cross experiments have been identified to check if these can be converted in to trend‐free optimal block designs for diallel cross experiments. A catalogue of such designs is also obtained. Trend‐free design is illustrated with example for a NBIB design and a design for diallel crosses experiments.

Abstract (sommario):

Abstract Complete replicate block designs are fully efficient for treatment effects and are the designs of choice for many agricultural field experiments. For experiments with a large number of treatments, however, they may not provide good control of variability over the whole experimental area. Nested incomplete block designs with a single level of nesting can then improve ‘within-block’ homogeneity for moderate sized experiments. For very large designs, however, a single level of nesting may not be adequate and this paper discusses multi-level nesting with hierarchies of nested blocks. Multi-level nested block designs provide a range of block sizes which can improve ‘within-block’ homogeneity over a range of scales of measurement. We discuss design and analysis of multi-level block designs for hierarchies of nested blocks including designs with crossed block factors. We describe an R language package for multi-level block design and we exemplify the design and analysis of multi-level block designs by a simulation study of block designs for cereal variety trials in the UK. Finally, we re-analyse a single large row-and-column field trial for 272 spring barley varieties in 16 rows and 34 columns assuming an additional set of multi-level nested column blocks superimposed on the existing design. For each example, a multi-level mixed blocks analysis is compared with a spatial analysis based on hierarchical generalized additive (HGAM) models. We discuss the combined analysis of random blocks and HGAM smoothers in the same model.

Abstract (sommario):

The increasing shortage and costs of natural materials in certain geographical areas has resulted in recent years, inter alia, in the rapid development of artificial (concrete) block revetments. In general, two main types of revetments can be distinguished: permeable (stone pitching, placed relatively open block-mats) and (relatively-) impermeable (closed blocks, concrete slabs). Regarding the shape and/or placing technique a distinction can be made between: a) free (mostly rectangular-) blocks and b) interlocking blocks of different design (tongue-and-groove connection, ship- lap, cabling, blocks connected to geotextile by pins etc.). In all these cases the type of sublayer (permeable/impermeable) and the grade of permeability of the toplayer are very important factors in the stability of these revetments. The design also needs to be made (executed) and maintained. Both aspects must therefore already be taken along within the stadium of designing. At the moment there is a large variety of types of revetment-blocks and other defence systems (i.e. block-mats), see Fig. 1. Until recently no objective design-criteria were available for most types/systems of blocks. The choice (type and size) of the revetments built sofar is only based on experience and on personal points of view, sometimes supported by small-scale model investigations. In the light of new (stricter) rules regarding the safety of the Dutch dikes, as they have been drawn up by the Delta-Commission, the need for proper design-criteria for the revetments of dikes has evidently grown. Because of the complexity of the problem no simply, generally valid mathematical model for the stability of the revetment are available yet. For restricted areas of application however, fairly reliable criteria (often supported by large-scale tests) have been developed in the Netherlands not only for the kind of revetment, but also for conditions of loads. This new approach is discussed in (Klein Breteler, 1988). This paper presents a short state-of-the-art review of existing knowledge on the designing of different types of revetments and, where ever possible, the available stability criteria are mentioned. There is also given some comparison of the different types of revetments with their advantages and disadvantages and suggestions regarding their practical application.

Abstract (sommario):

Companies are conducting more and longer surveys than ever before. Massive questionnaires are pervasive in marketing practice. As an alternative to the heuristic methods that are currently used to split questionnaires, this study develops a methodology to design the split questionnaire in a way that minimizes information loss. Using estimates from a first wave or pilot study, the authors apply the modified Fedorov algorithm using the Kullback–Leibler distance as a design criterion to find the optimal splits. Their design criterion is based on a general mixed data model that accommodates continuous, rank-ordered, and discrete measurement scales. The optimal construction of the split questionnaire design is easy and fast. The authors use Markov chain Monte Carlo procedures to impute missing values that result from the design. They generate split questionnaire designs by selecting either entire blocks of questions (between-block design) or sets of questions in each block (within-block design). They compare the efficiency of split questionnaires generated with the proposed method with multiple matrix sampling designs, incomplete block designs, and a heuristic procedure, using synthetic and empirical Web survey data. The authors illustrate in a field study that as a result of reduced respondent burden, the quality of data using split questionnaire designs improves.

Abstract (sommario):

Fractal theory has been widely applied in the filed of image compression due to the advantage of resolution independence, fast decoding, and high compression ratio. However, it has a fatal shortcoming of intolerant encoding time because that every range block is need to find its corresponding best matched domain block in the full image. Therefore, it has not been widely applied as other coding schemes in the field of image compression. In this paper, an algorithm is proposed to improve this time-consuming encoding drawback by the adaptive searching window, partial distortion elimination and characteristic exclusion algorithms. Proposed can efficient decrease the encoding time significantly. In addition, the compression ratio is also raised due to the reduced searching window. Conventional fractal encoding for a 512 by 512 image need search 247009 domain blocks for every range block. Experimental results show that our proposed method only search 120 domain blocks which is only 0.04858% compared to conventional fractal encoder for every range block to encode Lena 512 by 512 8-bit gray image at the bit rate of 0.2706 bits per pixel (bpp) while maintaining almost the same decoded quality as conventional fractal encoder does. This paper contributes to the research of encoder of fast image communication system.

Abstract (sommario):

As with conventional mechanisms, the conceptual design of compliant mechanisms is a blend of art and science. It is generally performed using one of two methods: topology optimization or the pseudo-rigid-body model. In this paper, we present a new conceptual design methodology which utilizes a building block approach for compliant mechanisms performing displacement amplification/attenuation. This approach provides an interactive, intuitive, and systematic methodology for generating initial compliant mechanism designs. The instant center is used as a tool to construct the building blocks. The compliant four-bar building block and the compliant dyad building block are presented as base mechanisms for the conceptual design. It is found that it is always possible to obtain a solution for the geometric advantage problem with an appropriate combination of these building blocks. In a building block synthesis, a problem is first evaluated to determine if any known building blocks can satisfy the design specifications. If there are none, the problem is decomposed to a number of sub-problems which may be solved with the building blocks. In this paper, the problem is decomposed by selecting a point in the design space where the output of the first building block coincides with the second building block. Two quantities are presented as tools to aid in the determination of the mechanism's geometry – (i) an index relating the geometric advantage of individual building blocks to the target geometric advantage and (ii) the error in the geometric advantage predicted by instant centers compared to the calculated value from FEA. These quantities guide the user in the selection of the location of nodes of the mechanism. Determination of specific cross-sectional size is reserved for subsequent optimization. An example problem is provided to demonstrate the methodology's capacity to obtain good initial designs in a straightforward manner. A size and geometry optimization is performed to demonstrate the viability of the design.

Abstract (sommario):

Single-site clonal trials were simulated with a total of 256 clones "planted" in single-tree plots with three different environmental patterns: only patches (PATCH), only gradients (GRAD), and both components (ALL). Several simulated experimental designs were analyzed (a randomized complete block design; incomplete block designs with 4, 8, 16, and 32 incomplete blocks; and a row-column design) and compared with post hoc blocking of the same designs over a randomized complete block. Additionally, two more incomplete block designs (64 and 128 blocks) were superimposed after the fact to examine extremely small blocks. To select the best fit, the performance of the log-likelihood and mean standard error of the difference (SED) were studied and compared with mean individual broad-sense heritability. Improvement in statistical efficiency (or precision) were obtained with little effort using post hoc blocking. The results from post hoc blocking were promising with negligible differences compared with predesigned local control. The post hoc best designs were row-column (for ALL and PATCH) and incomplete block with eight blocks (for GRAD). Also, mean correlation between the true and predicted values (CORR) showed a reduction in efficiency for extremely small blocks, but no reduction in the genetic variance was noted as the size of the block decreased. Both of the criteria for model selection (log-likelihood and SED) showed similar trend to mean CORR, and their use is recommended.

Late twentieth-century housing, formed by economic and internally generated functional problems rather than by limitations imposed by traditional street pattern and block size, is fundamentally anti-urban. Modern American housing of the post-World War II era, like any complex social phenomenon, was influenced by multiple forces. Among the most salient are single proprietary control of large parcels of urban land and pre-World War II stylistic trends / social ideals, both of which were reinforced by revisions to zoning regulations. The traditional relationship of the individual dwelling to the block and the street (as well as the individual to the community, as represented by a parallel, formal urban organization) is altered as a result of a changed urban housing configuration. Although the urban characteristics of traditional eighteenth- and nineteenth-century housing blocks remain viable, the dwellings of which they were composed were products of an economic and social structure whose housing requirements are no longer appropriate in contemporary culture. Modem housing, not limited by normative street and block configuration fulfills some of the economic and programmatic requirements of contemporary society, but because it is inherently anti-urban its presence is ultimately destructive of civic life. Analysis of traditional residential urban blocks in terms of quantifiable urban characteristics provides a tool with which to measure and generate programatically modern housing determined by traditional urban constraints.

This thesis develops a 3-degree of freedom submarine drydock blocking system computer aided design package. Differential equations of motion are developed to take into account high blocking systems, wale shores, and side block cap angles. The computer program is verified by a case study involving the earthquake sliding failure of the USS Leahy (CG-16). A parametric study is conducted to determine the effects of wale shores, isolators, and block stiffness and geometry variations on system survivability. The effects of using earthquake acceleration time histories with differing frequency spectrums on system survivability is studied. None of eleven submarine drydock blocking systems studied survive to dry dock failure (0.26 g's) or even meet the Navy's current 0.2 g survival requirement. This shows that current Navy submarine drydock blocking systems are inadequate to survive expected earthquakes. Two design solutions are found that meet the dry dock failure requirements. The low stiffness solution uses dynamic isolators and rubber caps, and the high stiffness solution uses wale shores and rubber caps. The wale shore solution virtually prevents the submarine from moving horizontally relative to the dock floor. The isolator solution allows relatively large horizontal displacements to occur. Using the wale shore solution, the submarine experiences forces which are an order of magnitude higher than these seen by the isolator solution. Both design solutions can be constructed; however, there are cost and production interference concerns. Theses. (edc)

Abstract (sommario):

Design optimality for treatment comparison experiments has been intensively studied by numerous researchers, employing a variety of statistically sound criteria. Their general formulation is based on the idea that optimality functions of the treatment information matrix are invariant to treatment permutation. This implies equal interest in all treatments. In practice, however, there are many experiments where not all treatments are equally important. When selecting a design for such an experiment, it would be better to weight the information gathered on different treatments according to their relative importance and/or interest. This dissertation develops a general theory of weighted design optimality, with special attention to the block design problem. Among others, this study develops and justifies weighted versions of the popular A, E and MV optimality criteria. These are based on the weighted information matrix, also introduced here. Sufficient conditions are derived for block designs to be weighted A, E and MV-optimal for situations where treatments fall into two groups according to two distinct levels of interest, these being important special cases of the "2-weight optimality" problem. Particularly, optimal designs are developed for experiments where one of the treatments is a control. The concept of efficiency balance is also studied in this dissertation. One view of efficiency balance and its generalizations is that unequal treatment replications are chosen to reflect unequal treatment interest. It is revealed that efficiency balance is closely related to the weighted-E approach to design selection. Functions of the canonical efficiency factors may be interpreted as weighted optimality criteria for comparison of designs with the same replication numbers.

Abstract (sommario):

Nonparametric tests are used to test hypotheses when the data at hand violate one or more of the assumptions for parametric tests procedures. The test is an ordered alternative (nondecreasing) when there is prior information about the data. It assumes that the underlying distributions are of the same type and therefore differ in location. For example, in dose-response studies, animals are assigned to k groups corresponding to k doses of an experimental drug. The effect of the drug on the animals is likely to increase or decrease with increasing doses. In this case, the ordered alternative is appropriate for the study. In this paper, we propose eight new nonparametric tests useful for testing against nondecreasing order alternatives for a mixed design involving randomized complete block and balanced incomplete block design. These tests involve various modifications of the Jonckheere-Terpstra test (Jonckheere(1952), Terpstra(1954)) and Alvo and Cabilio’s test (1995). Three, four and five treatments were considered with different location parameters under different scenarios. For three and four treatments, 6,12, and 18 blocks were used for the simulation, while 10, 20, and 30 blocks were used for five treatments. Different tests performed best under different block combinations, but overall the standardized last for Alvo outperformed the other test when the number of treatments and number of missing observations per block increases. A simulation study was conducted comparing the powers of the various modification of Jonckheere-Terpstra (Jonckheere(1952), Terpstra(1954)) and Alvo and Cabilio’s (1995) tests under different scenarios. Recommendations are made.

The tendency of block copolymers (BCP's) to microphase separate at the molecular level, producing a wide array of ordered nanostructures, is of particular interest from an engineering standpoint due to the unique mechanical, optical or electrical properties that ensue. Upon considering the potential applications of these materials, however, one limitation arises from the lack of control over bulk thermodynamics and the appearance of order/disorder (solid-like/liquid-like) transitions in these materials. To address this problem, this thesis aims to, firstly, develop a more quantifiable understanding of the molecular factors governing BCP phase behavior, and, secondly, use that knowledge to molecularly engineer new BCP's with enhanced processibility. While most BCP's microphase separate upon cooling through an upper disorder-to-order transition (UDOT), polystyrene-block-poly n-butyl methacrylate, PS-b-PBMA, undergoes ordering upon heating through a lower disorder-to-order transition (LDOT). Preliminary studies on this material revealed a unique pressure sensitivity of this ordering transition. By applying pressure, this material could be forced into the segmentally mixed liquid state, implying "baroplasticity", a highly attractive property from a processing standpoint. To better understand the molecular origin of this behavior, the bulk thermodynamics of a family of BCPs formed from styrene and a homologous series of n-alkyl methacrylates (PS-b-PnAMA, n ranging from 1 to 12) was investigated, both as a function of pressure and temperature. The results of this study reveal an unexpected, though systematic, dependence of the phase behavior of these BCP's on monomer architecture. In short, over a certain range of alkyl side chain length, PS-b-PnAMA block copolymers are marginally compatible and exhibit unexpectedly large pressure coefficients for the ordering transition, ranging from 60 to 150°C/kbar. In an attempt to identify molecular parameters responsible for these thermodynamic trends, as well as those displayed by other systems reported in the literature, combined group contribution/lattice fluid model calculations of the cohesive properties of the corresponding homopolymers are performed. Based on this analysis, the homopolymer mass density is proposed as a macroscopic parameter that appears to govern phase behavior in weakly interacting block copolymers or polymer blends. Using this new criterion, a simple tool for the molecular design of phase behavior into weakly interacting BCP's is identified, which is successfully used to engineer "baroplastic" behavior into several new systems of commercial relevance, including elastomers and adhesives based on styrene and low Tg acrylates. In light of the improved understanding of BCP phase behavior emerging from these studies, a simple phenomenological free energy expression is proposed for compressible polymer mixtures, that can be extended to block copolymers. Its ability to predict qualitative phase diagrams for the systems investigated in this thesis as well as many other polymer pairs is demonstrated. Using this expression, basic principles regarding polymer thermodynamics are outlined.

Abstract (sommario):

The ship design process is complex and strongly influenced by both the inherent technical complexity and interactions of subsystems. These arise from within ships and from external influences, such as the design environment and the capabilities provided by the available tools. These difficulties are particularly found in the design of service vessels, such as warships. Both requirements and performance of the ship are multi-faceted and some aspects may not be readily amenable to numerical description and assessment, particularly in the eady stages of the design process. Preliminary ship design is characterised by exploration of options and the investigation of design drivers and relationships, with great variability in the design definition adopted by designers. This provides significant potential for investigation of alternative and innovative design solutions. A wide range of broad approaches and detail procedures for the application of computers to preliminary ship design have been proposed, including an architecturally centred approach to preliminary ship design. The latter has been previously proposed as a method for the integration of the technical and stylistic aspects. The most recent implementation of the Design Building Block approach is as a module within the PARAMARINE ship design software, known as SURFCON. This research commenced with evaluating and demonstrating this implementation fit for use in preliminary ship design by modelling of a conventional vessel. A detailed procedure for using the tool was developed and this procedure was demonstrated by the development of a similar design. The Design Building Block approach was subsequently applied to a range of innovative preliminary ship design studies. These covered a range of vessel types and also differed in their overall objectives, including the assessment of the feasibility of a new concept and the evaluation of the impact of specific capabilities on the overall ship design. The research confirmed that the use of the integrated spatial and numerical model, with an interactive graphical display, increased transparency in modelling and analysis, while greatly enhancing the designer's understanding of the design drivers. The flexibility and relative ease with which major features of the design could be modified, encouraged the exploration of alternatives and led to a ship design process akin to the sketching processes in product and architectural design. Further research is proposed in the areas of interface design to support innovate design, incorporation of further simulation and numerical approaches, together with the integration of systems engineering aspects into innovative preliminary ship design.

Abstract (sommario):

Small volume and high product-mix contribute greatly to the complexity of job shop operations. In addition, shop floor uncertainty or fluctuation is another issue regularly challenging manufacturing companies, including job delay, urgent job insertion, fixture shortage, missing tool, and even machine breakdown. Targeting the uncertainty, we propose a function block based approach to generating adaptive process plans. Enabled by the function blocks, a so-generated process plan is responsive and tolerant to an unpredictable change. This paper presents in detail how a function block is designed and what it can do during process plan execution. It is expected that this new approach can largely enhance the dynamism of fluctuating job shop operations.

Abstract (sommario):

In this paper, we investigate a methodology for the conceptual synthesis of compliance at a single point based on a building block approach. The methodology lays the foundation for more general compliant mechanism synthesis problems involving multiple points of interest (i.e. inputs and outputs). In the building block synthesis, the problem specifications are decomposed into related sub-problems if a single building block cannot perform the desired task. The sub-problems are tested against the library of building blocks until a suitable building block is determined. The synthesized design is composed of an assembly of the building blocks to provide the desired functionality. The building block approach is intuitive and provides key insight into how individual building blocks contribute to the overall function. We investigate the basic kinematic behavior of individual building blocks and relate this to the behavior of a design composed of building blocks. This serves to not only generate viable solutions but also to augment the understanding of the designer. Once a feasible concept is thus generated, known methods for size and geometry optimization may be employed to fine tune performance. The key enabler of the building block synthesis is the method of capturing kinematic behavior using Compliance Ellipsoids. The mathematical model of the compliance ellipsoids facilitates the characterization of the building blocks, transformation of problem specifications, decomposition into sub-problems, and the ability to search for alternate solutions. The compliance ellipsoids also give insight into how individual building blocks contribute to the overall kinematic function. The effectiveness and generality of the methodology are demonstrated through a synthesis example. Using only a limited set of building blocks, the methodology is capable of addressing generic kinematic problem specifications.

Abstract (sommario):

The conceptual design of compliant mechanisms is generally performed using one of two methods: topology optimization or the Pseudo-Rigid-Body Model. In this paper, we present a conceptual design methodology which utilizes a building block approach. The concept of the instant center is developed for compliant mechanisms and is used to characterize the building blocks. The building block characterization is used in guiding the problem decomposition. The compliant four-bar building block is presented as a base mechanism for the conceptual design. The geometric advantage is used as a quantitative measure to guide the designer in determining the shape of the building block. An example problem demonstrates the methodology’s capacity to obtain viable conceptual designs in a straightforward manner. Resulting mechanisms satisfy initial kinematic requirements and are ready for further refinement using size and geometry optimization.
