Investigation on the compressibility and shear strength of compacted loess is of great importance for the design and operation of engineering infrastructures in filling area. In this study, the mechanical behaviors of Yan'an compacted loess are investigated at various dry densities and water contents by conducting one dimensional compression and direct shear tests. And the elastic compressibility, plastic compressibility, yield stress and strength are obtained from the experiments. Results show that when water content increases, plastic compressibility parameter increases, but yield stress decreases. However, the increase of dry density leads to a decrease in plastic compressibility parameter but an increase in yield stress. In addition, elastic compressibility parameter is found to be a constant which is irrelevant to water content and dry density. As for strength, cohesion and internal friction angle is directly proportional to dry density, but inversely proportional to water content. Moreover, the mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) tests were also performed to observe the pore size distribution and microstructure of the specimens. Finally, by using results of MIP and SEM tests, the compressibility and strength behaviours of Yan'an compacted loess are explained from the perspective of pore-size distribution and microstructure.

개정설계파의 극치분포를 확산모수를 이용하여 분석하였으며 케이슨방파제 기대활동량 산정을 통하여 확산모수가 방파제 성능에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 확산모수가 통상적 값보다 클 때 극치분포함수를 이용해 발생시킨 년최대 유의파 중에서 50년 빈도 설계파보다 매우 큰 이례적인 파가 발생하는 현상을 확인하였다. 개정설계파의 확산모수는 외국사례와 비교한 결과 상대적으로 큰 값을 가지며 방파제 기대활동량 평가시 결정론적 안전율이 충분히 높은 경우에도 매우 큰 활동량을 유발하는 것으로 확인되었다.

This paper presents a distribution simulation model for dual purpose improved conventional munitions based on flight test data. A systematic procedure for designing a dispersion simulation model is proposed. A new accumulated broken line graph was suggested for designing the distribution shape. In the process of verification and simulation for the distribution simulation model, verification was performed by first comparing data with firing test results, and an application simulation was then conducted. The Monte Carlo method was used in the simulations, which reflected the relationship between ejection conditions and real distribution data. Before establishing the simulation algorithm, the dominant ejection parameter of the submunitions was examined. The relationships between ejection conditions and distribution results were investigated. Five key distribution parameters were analyzed with respect to the ejection conditions. They reflect the characteristics of clustered particle dynamics and aerodynamics.

In this paper, we propose power t distribution based on t distribution. We also study the properties of and inferences for power t model in order to solve the problem of real data showing both skewness and heavy tails. The comparison of skew t and power t distributions is based on density plots, skewness and kurtosis. Note that, at the given degree of freedom, the kurtosis's range of the power t model surpasses that of the skew t model at all times. We draw inferences for two parameters of the power t distribution and four parameters of the location-scale extension of power t distribution via maximum likelihood. The Fisher information matrix derived is nonsingular on the whole parametric space; in addition we obtain the profile log-likelihood functions on two parameters. The response plots for different sample sizes provide strong evidence for the estimators' existence and unicity. An application of the power t distribution suggests that the model can be very useful for real data.

The number of neutron signals from a neutral particle beam(NPB) at the detector, without any errors, obeys Poisson distribution, Under two assumptions that NPB scattering distribution and aiming errors have a circular Gaussian distribution respectively, an exact probability distribution of signals becomes a Poisson-power function distribution. In this paper, we show that the error rate in simple hypothesis testing for the limiting Poisson-power function distribution is not zero. That is, the limit of ${\alpha}+{\beta}$ is zero when Poisson parameter$\kappa\rightarro\infty$, but this limit is not zero (i.e., $\rho\ell$>0)for the Poisson-power function distribution. We also give optimal decision algorithms for a specified error rate.

In this paper generalized version of the geometric distribution is introduced. This distribution can be considered as a two-parameter generalization of the discrete geometric distribution. The main statistical and reliability properties of this distribution are discussed. Two methods of estimation, namely maximum likelihood method and the method of moments are used to estimate the parameters of this distribution. Simulation is utilized to calculate these estimates and to study some of their properties. Also, asymptotic confidence limits are established for the maximum likelihood estimates. Finally, the appropriateness of this new distribution for a set of real data, compared with the geometric distribution, is shown by using the likelihood ratio test and the Kolmogorove-Smirnove test.

It is shown theoretically that uniform axial dopant concentration distribution can be made throughout the crystal by continuous Czochralski process. Numerical simulation are performed for the transient two-dimensional convection-diffusion model. A typical value of the growth and system parameters for Czochralski growth of p-type, 4 inches silicon crystal was used in the numerical calculations. Using this model with proper model parameter, the axial segregation in batchwise Czochralski growth can be described. It is studied by comparing with the experimental data. With this model parameter, the uniform axial concentration distribution of dopant is predicted in continuous Czochralski process.

We performed molecular dynamics simulations on dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine lipid bilayer with 50 mol% halothane. The structural properties, electron density profile, segmental order parameter of acyl chains, headgroup orientation distribution, water dipole orientation distribution, have been examined. Overall the effects of the halothane molecules on structural properties of DMPC lipid bilayer were found to be small. The electron density profiles, the segmental order parameter, the headgroup orientation, the water dipole orientation were not affected significantly by the halothane molecules. Pressure tensor calculations shows that the lateral pressure increases at the hydrocarbon tail region and the headgroup region, and decreases at the water-headgroup interfacial region.

In decision theoretic estimation, the loss function usually emphasizes precision of estimation. However, one may have interest in goodness of fit of the overall model as well as precision of estimation. From this viewpoint, Zellner(1994) proposed the balanced loss function which takes account of both "goodness of fit" and "precision of estimation". This paper considers estimation of the parameter of a Bernoulli distribution using Zellner's(1994) balanced loss function. It is shown that the sample mean $\overline{X}$, is admissible. More general results, concerning the admissibility of estimators of the form $a\overline{X}+b$ are also presented. Finally, minimax estimators and some numerical results are given at the end of paper,at the end of paper.

This paper considers the problem of estimating parameters of the bivariate exponential distribution with a location parameter for a two-component shared parallel system using component data from system-level life test terminated at the time of the prespecified number of system failure. In the system-level life testing, there are three patterns of failure types ; 1) both component failed 2) both component censored 3) one is failed and the other is censored. In the third case, we assume that the failure time might be known or unknown. The maximum likelihood estimators are obtained for the case of known/unknown failure time when the other component is censored.
