The random vibration of saddle membrane structures under wind load is studied theoretically and experimentally. First, the nonlinear random vibration differential equations of saddle membrane structures under wind loads are established based on von Karman's large deflection theory, thin shell theory and potential flow theory. The probabilistic density function (PDF) and its corresponding statistical parameters of the displacement response of membrane structure are obtained by using the diffusion process theory and the Fokker Planck Kolmogorov equation method (FPK) to solve the equation. Furthermore, a wind tunnel test is carried out to obtain the displacement time history data of the test model under wind load, and the statistical characteristics of the displacement time history of the prototype model are obtained by similarity theory and probability statistics method. Finally, the rationality of the theoretical model is verified by comparing the experimental model with the theoretical model. The results show that the theoretical model agrees with the experimental model, and the random vibration response can be effectively reduced by increasing the initial pretension force and the rise-span ratio within a certain range. The research methods can provide a theoretical reference for the random vibration of the membrane structure, and also be the foundation of structural reliability of membrane structure based on wind-induced response.

In this talk we proposed an asymptotic test for dimensionality in the latent variable model for probabilistic principal component analysis with missing values at random. Proposed algorithm is a sequential likelihood ratio test for an appropriate Normal latent variable model for the principal component analysis. Modified EM-algorithm is used to find MLE for the model parameters. Results from simulations and real data sets give us promising evidences that the proposed method is useful in finding necessary number of components in the principal component analysis with missing values at random.

In this paper, we consider two components system which the lifetimes follow bivariate pareto model with bivariate random censored data. We assume that the censoring times are independent of the lifetimes of the two components. We develop large sample test for testing independence between two components. Also we present a simulation study which is the test based on asymptotic normal distribution in testing independence.

In this paper we propose a method to test $\textit{H}$:$\rho_i$=$\gamma_i$ for 1$\leq$$\textit{i}$$\leq$$\ell$ against $\textit{K}$:$\rho_i$$\neq$$\gamma_i$ for some ｉin k-variance component random or mixed linear model where $\rho$i denotes the ratio of the i-th variance component to the error variance and $\ell$$\leq$K. The test which we call Rao-Wald test is exact and does not depend upon nuisance parameters. From a numerical study of the power performance of the test of the interaction effect for the case of a two-way random model Rao-Wald test was seen to be quite comparable to the locally best invariant (LBI) test when the nuisance parameters of the LBI test are assumed known. When the nuisance parameters of the LBI test are replaced by maximum likelihood estimators Rao-Wald test outperformed the LBI test.

In this paper we propose a method for designing optimum degradation test based on nonlinear random-coefficients models. We use the approximated expression of the Fisher information matrix for nonlinear random-coefficients models. We apply the simplex algorithm to the inverse of the determinant of Fisher information matrix to satisfy the D-optimal criterion. By comparison of the results from PDP degradation data, we suggest a general guideline to obtain optimum experimental design for determining inspection intervals and number of samples in degradation testing.

For highly reliable products, it is difficult to assess the lifetime of the products with traditional life tests. Accordingly, a recent approach is to observe the performance degradation of product during the test rather than regular failure time. This study compares performances of three methods(i.e. the approximation, analytical and numerical methods) to estimate the parameters and quantiles of the lifetime when the time-to-failure distribution follows Weibull and lognormal distributions under a random coefficient degradation rate model. Numerical experiments are also conducted to investigate the effects of model error such as measurements in a random coefficient model.

We derive the exact distribution of summation for random samples from uniform distribution and then compare the exact distribution with the approximated normal distribution obtained by the central limit theorem. To check the similarity between two distributions, we consider five existing normality tests based on the difference between the target normal distribution and empirical distribution: Anderson-Darling test, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Cramer-von Mises test, Shapiro-Wilk test and Shaprio-Francia test. For the purpose of comparison, those normality tests are applied to the simulated data. It can sometimes be difficult to derive an exact distribution. Thus, we try two different transformations to find out which transform is easier to get the exact distribution in terms of calculation complexity. We compare two transformations and comment on the advantages and disadvantages for each transformation.

This paper considers the Maximum Pesponse Spectrum for the random vibration, sinusoidal vibration, linear sweep vibration. The random vibration quality levels and the sinusoidal vibration quality level are compared using MRS. And the severity between the vibration test specification and real environments using Maximum Response Spectrum are also compared using it.

This study concentrates on the second-order diffraction problem around circular cylinders in multi-frequency waves. The method of solution is a time-domain Rankine panel method which adopts a higher-order approximation for the velocity potential and wave elevation. In the present study, the multiple second-order quadratic transfer functions are extracted from the second-order time signal generated in random waves, and the comparison with other bench-mark test results shows a good agreement. This approach is directly applicable to prediction of nonlinear forces on offshore structures in random ocean.

In this paper, it is key issue about analysis of characteristics processing of digital random output stream of hardware random number generator, which is applied in medical area. The output stream of random number generator based on hardware binary random number is effected from factors such as delay, jitter, temperature, and so on. In this paper, it presents about major factor, which effects hardware output random number stream, and the randomness of output stream data, which are combined output stream and postprocessing data such as encryption algorithm, encoding algorithm, is analyzed. the analyzed results are evaluated by major test items of randomness.
