Bayesian models for the determination of resonant frequencies in a DI diesel engine [PDF]
, 2011 A time series method for the determination of combustion chamber resonant frequencies is outlined. This technique employs the use of Markov-chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to infer parameters in a chosen model of the data.
