Comparing the Overlapping of Two Independent Confidence Intervals with a Single Confidence Interval for Two Normal Population Parameters
Huang, Ching-ying (2008-12-15)
Two overlapping confidence intervals have been used in many sources in the past 30 years to conduct statistical inferences about two normal population means. Several authors have examined the shortcomings of Overlap ...
Cyberintrusion Detection in Critical Infrastructure
Bissinger, Nancy (2015-11-17)
Sophisticated cyberterrorists have su cient knowledge to devise an attack through the
Internet which could compromise critical resource delivery. As the threat of such cybercrime
escalates, defending critical infrastructure ...
The Development and Representation of Occupant Performance in Building Evacuation Modeling
Muhdi, Rani (2008-05-15)
Occupant characteristics are considered important features incorporated into most evacuation models. The relative scarcity of evacuation experiments in the literature, contributes to some extent to the continuous challenge ...
A Distribution-Free Control Chart for Retrospective Location Analysis of Subgrouped Multivariate Data
Bell, Richard C., Jr. (2011-09-08)
In multivariate quality control, a proper Phase I analysis is essential to the success of Phase II monitoring. Even self-starting methods, which seek to minimize the Phase I process, usually recommend a single retrospective ...
Generating Renewal Functions of Uniform, Gamma, Normal and Weibull Distributions for Minimal and Non Negligible Repair by Using Convolutions and Approximation Methods
Helvaci, Dilcu (2013-11-05)
This dissertation explores renewal functions for minimal repair and non-negligible repair for the most common reliability underlying distributions Weibull, gamma, normal, lognormal, logistic, loglogistic and the uniform. ...
Knapsack problems with setup
Yang, Yanchun (2006-08-15)
This research studies three integer programming models which can be applied to order acceptance in make-to-order manufacturing or regional project selection in multiple periods. All three models are the variations of the ...
Manufacturing Cost Prediction in the Presence of Categorical and Numeric Design Attributes
Sakinc, Eren (2016-07-27)
Manufacturing processes require not only physical operation capabilities but also non-physical management policies. When designing a new product or manufacturing a customer’s new unique design, the focal point is to establish ...
Obesity Effects on Preferred Driving Postures and Vehicle Interior Component Settings
Jeong, Yi Hun (2011-07-05)
The effects of obesity were investigated with a highly adjustable vehicle mock-up. 44 participants (23 non-obese, 21 extremely obese individuals) were involved in the study. The extremely obese and non-obese group had ...
The Optimum Upper Screening Limit and Optimum Mean Fill Level to Maximize Expected Net Profit in the Canning Problem for Finite Continuous Distributions
Jordan, Victoria (2006-05-15)
The “canning problem” occurs when a process has a minimum specification such that any product produced below that minimum incurs a scrap/rework cost and any product over the minimum incurs a “give-away” cost. The objective ...
Patient Handling: Restrictions & Conditions
Holman, Grady (2007-12-15)
Injuries to healthcare personnel performing patient transfers are a worldwide problem and have been listed as a primary research interest by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) since the 1980’s. ...
PBGA Reliability of Lead Free Solder Balls Assembled with Tin Lead Solder Paste for Harsh Environment Electronics
Mitchell, Charles (2006-08-15)
The demand for high-temperature electronics is growing rapidly in the automotive industry. This stems directly from the fact that these electronics are being transferred from their passive environments to under-the-hood ...
Profile Monitoring of Multivariate Processes for Efficient Detection of Parameter Changes
Mishra, Shovan (2018-10-31)
Profile monitoring has been extensively studied when the profile of a quality characteristic is normally distributed. There are a limited number of studies for the case when a profile follows other distributions such as ...
Reliability/Availability of Manufacturing cells and Transfer Lines
Kannan, Balaji (2011-05-04)
One of the major wastes in a manufacturing system is downtime caused by machine breakdown/failure and the time and cost incurred to repair the failed machine. Machine breakdown leads to stoppage of production in manufacturing ...
Sensitivity Analysis of Subjective Ergonomic Assessment Tools: Impact of Input Information Accuracy on Output (Final Scores) Generation
Escobar, Claudia (2006-05-15)
Subjective ergonomic assessment tools are widely used by practitioners to detect existing or potentially hazardous conditions. Their output scores are used to design, implement, and evaluate measurements and controls in ...
Taylor Kriging Metamodeling for Simulation Interpolation, Sensitivity Analysis and Optimization
Liu, Heping (2009-04-02)
The dissertation explores Kriging metamodeling for the interpolation, sensitivity analysis and optimization of simulation models with costly computational or economic expenses. The key theoretical contribution is that a ...
Test Planning and Validation through an Optimized Kriging Interpolation Process in a Sequential Sampling Adaptive Computer Learning Environment
Barnes, Jeremy (2012-07-27)
This dissertation explores Kriging in an adaptive computer learning environment with sequential sampling. The idea of this Design for Kriging (DFK) process was first mentioned in [1] titled “Kriging for Interpolation in ...
