Abstract Theoretical research done for the development of a methodology for designing specified reliabilities into rotating mechanical components is referenced to prior reports submitted to NASA on this research. Experimentally determined distributional cycles-to-failure versus maximum alternating nominal strength (S-N) diagrams, and distributional mean nominal strength versus maximum alternating nominal strength (Goodman) diagrams are presented. These distributional S-N and Goodman diagrams are for AISI 4340 steel, R 35/4' hardness, round, cylindrical specimens 0.735 in. in diameter and 6 in. long with a circumferential groove 0.145 in. radius for a theoretical stress concentration K = 1.42 for Phase I research and 0.034 in. radius for a K =2.34 for Phase II research. The specimens are subjected to reversed bending and steady torque in specially built, three complex-fatigue research machines. Based on these results,the effects on the distributional S-N and Goodman diagrams and on service life of superimposing steady torque on reversed bending are established, as well as the effect of various stress concentrations. In addition a computer program for determining the three-parameter Weibull distribution representing the cycles-to-failure data, and two methods for calculating the reliability of components subjected to cumulative fatigue loads are given. 17.

    International Journal of Applied Science and Research FLOOD FREQUENCY ANALYSIS USING GUMBEL DISTRIBUTION EQUATION IN PART OF PORT HARCOURT METROPOLIS Eke, Stanley N. & Hart, Lawrence Department of Surveying and Geomatics, Rivers State University, Port Harcourt, Nigeria IJASR 2020 VOLUME 3 ISSUE 3 MAY – JUNE ISSN: 2581-7876 Abstract – The adequacy of the Gumbel distribution equation for hydrological extremes, with regards to rainfall extreme, is very paramount in hydrologic studies and infrastructural development of any region. This study investigates how the Gumbel distribution equation model and rainfall data set can be used to analyse flood frequency and flood extreme ratio of any given spatial domain and underscore its significance in the application of the model in geo-analysis of varying environmental phenomena. The classical approach of periodic observation of flood heights was deployed over a consistent number of rainfall days in addition to the determination of rainfall intensity and flow rate using relevant hydrological models over a period of time from available rainfall information. The geospatial height data of the western part of the Port Harcourt city metropolis being the study area was also provided. The result showed that a flood peak of 82cm was determined to have a sample mode of 0.532 in relation to sample size of 30 with an associated standard deviation of 1.1124. The result showed that from the frequency curve, the occurrence of smaller floods with a flood peak height of 90cm will be symmetrical and skewed. We assert that the Gumbel distribution equation model serves as a veritable tool for quick and efficient flood analysis and prediction for the study area.

In order to estimate the spate water flow distribution probability, data on water flow were collected during the period from 1948 to 2008. Seven probability distributions, namely, Gamma, Weibull, Pearson 6, Rayleigh, Beta, Kumaraswamy and Exponential distributions were tested to model the distribution of the Wadi Bana flows and Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Anderson-Darling and Chi- Squared goodness-of-fit tests were used to evaluate the best fit at 5 % level of significance. It suggests that the best frequency distribution obtained for the Wadi Bana flows in the Abyan Delta of Yemen is Gamma followed by weibull distribution for both summer and autumn seasons.

  • Logistic Distribution Becomes Skew to the Right and When P>1 It Becomes Skew to the Left
    FITTING THE VERSATILE LINEARIZED, COMPOSITE, AND GENERALIZED LOGISTIC PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION TO A DATA SET R.J. Oosterbaan, 06-08-2019. On www.waterlog.info public domain. Abstract The logistic probability distribution can be linearized for easy fitting to a data set using a linear regression to determine the parameters. The logistic probability distribution can also be generalized by raising the data values to the power P that is to be optimized by an iterative method based on the minimization of the squares of the deviations of calculated and observed data values (the least squares or LS method). This enhances its applicability. When P<1 the logistic distribution becomes skew to the right and when P>1 it becomes skew to the left. When P=1, the distribution is symmetrical and quite like the normal probability distribution. In addition, the logistic distribution can be made composite, that is: split into two parts with different parameters. Composite distributions can be used favorably when the data set is obtained under different external conditions influencing its probability characteristics. Contents 1.

  • An R Package for the Optimization of Stratified Sampling
    JSS Journal of Statistical Software October 2014, Volume 61, Issue 4. http://www.jstatsoft.org/ SamplingStrata: An R Package for the Optimization of Stratified Sampling Giulio Barcaroli Italian National Institute of Statistics (Istat) Abstract When designing a sampling survey, usually constraints are set on the desired precision levels regarding one or more target estimates (the Y 's). If a sampling frame is available, containing auxiliary information related to each unit (the X's), it is possible to adopt a stratified sample design. For any given stratification of the frame, in the multivariate case it is possible to solve the problem of the best allocation of units in strata, by minimizing a cost function subject to precision constraints (or, conversely, by maximizing the precision of the estimates under a given budget). The problem is to determine the best stratification in the frame, i.e., the one that ensures the overall minimal cost of the sample necessary to satisfy precision constraints. The X's can be categorical or continuous; continuous ones can be transformed into categorical ones. The most detailed stratification is given by the Cartesian product of the X's (the atomic strata). A way to determine the best stratification is to explore exhaustively the set of all possible partitions derivable by the set of atomic strata, evaluating each one by calculating the corresponding cost in terms of the sample required to satisfy precision constraints. This is unaffordable in practical situations, where the dimension of the space of the partitions can be very high. Another possible way is to explore the space of partitions with an algorithm that is particularly suitable in such situations: the genetic algorithm.

  • A Neural Networks Approach for Improving the Accuracy of Multi-Criteria Recommender Systems
    Article A Neural Networks Approach for Improving the Accuracy of Multi-Criteria Recommender Systems Mohammed Hassan *,† and Mohamed Hamada † Software Engineering Lab, Graduate School of Computer Science and Engineering, University of Aizu, Aizuwakamatsu-city 965-8580, Japan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] † These authors contributed equally to this work. Received: 28 July 2017; Accepted: 16 August 2017; Published: 25 August 2017 Abstract: Accuracy improvement has been one of the most outstanding issues in the recommender systems research community. Recently, multi-criteria recommender systems that use multiple criteria ratings to estimate overall rating have been receiving considerable attention within the recommender systems research domain. This paper proposes a neural network model for improving the prediction accuracy of multi-criteria recommender systems. The neural network was trained using simulated annealing algorithms and integrated with two samples of single-rating recommender systems. The paper presents the experimental results for each of the two single-rating techniques together with their corresponding neural network-based models. To analyze the performance of the approach, we carried out a comparative analysis of the performance of each single rating-based technique and the proposed multi-criteria model. The experimental findings revealed that the proposed models have by far outperformed the existing techniques. Keywords: recommender systems; artificial neural network; simulated annealing; slope one algorithm; singular value decomposition 1. Introduction Recommender systems (RSs) are software tools that have been widely used to predict users’ preferences and recommend useful items that might be interesting to them. The rapid growth of online services such as e-commerce, e-learning, e-government, along with others, in conjunction with the large volume of items in their databases makes RSs become important instruments for recommending interesting items that are not yet seen by users.

I was looking for a programming language which is open source, and can combine many codes/modules/software. I came across Python and Perl, though there might be many more options available. I googled the use of Python and Perl in the field of general scientific usage, hydrology, Geographic Information System (GIS), statistics, and somehow found Python to be the language of my need. I do not know if my conclusions about the Python versus Perl were true or not? But I feel happy for Python being my choice, and it is fulfilling my requirements. After using Python for two-three months, I become fond of open source, and started using only open source software, I said good-bye to Windows, ArcGis, MATLAB.
