In engineering design, the traditional “deterministic” modelling approach assumes fixed values for loads, material properties, geometry, etc. But in real life, every part is slightly different, no two ...
Abstract: Due to abrupt changes in the intrinsic degradation mechanism or shock from external environmental pressure, degradations of some equipment are characterized by multi-phase and jumps.
A key White House office has approved a proposed Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rule that could fundamentally change how H-1B visas are assigned, moving away from the long-standing random ...
Periodically, following races in the NASCAR Cup Series, officials will select two to three cars to take back to its R&D Center for additional inspection. Historically, this is called the Random ...
Abstract: In this work, we propose to characterize multipath of terrestrial radionavigation signals with a multi-process stochastic model. The feasibility of this approach is demonstrated using a ...
Introduction: Accurately predicting the remaining mechanical equipment is of great significance for ensuring the safe operation of the equipment and improving economic efficiency. Methods: To ...
Tiny particles like pollen grains move constantly, pushed and pulled by environmental forces. To study this motion, physicists use a “random walk” model — a system in which every step is determined by ...
