Guidelines to select suitable parameters for contour method stress measurements [PDF]
, 2020 The contour method is one of the promising techniques for the measurement of residual stresses in engineering components. In this method, the cut surfaces deform, owing to the relaxation of residual stresses.

Developments of Efficient Trigonometric Quantile Regression Models for Bounded Response Data
Axioms, 2023 The choice of an appropriate regression model for econometric modeling minimizes information loss and also leads to sound inferences. In this study, we develop four quantile regression models based on trigonometric extensions of the unit generalized half-

Observational study on risk factors determining residual dizziness after successful benign paroxysmal positional vertigo treatment: The role of subclinical BPPV [PDF]
, 2019 After successful treatment for benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, many patients may complain of residual dizziness. Possible explanations may be the persistence of otolith into canal insufficient to provoke noticeable nystagmus, utricular dysfunction ...

Examining Stress Relaxation in a Dissimilar Metal Weld Subjected to Postweld Heat Treatment [PDF]
, 2018 Dissimilar metal welds are often required in nuclear power plants to join components made from austenitic steels to those from ferritic steels, particularly in fast breeder reactor plants, in order to join the intermediate heat exchanger to the steam ...

A Simultaneous Estimation of the Baseline Intensity and Parameters for Modulated Renewal Processes
Axioms, 2022 This paper proposes a semiparametric solution to estimate the intensity (hazard) function of modulated renewal processes: a nonparametric estimate for the baseline intensity function together with a parametric estimate of the model parameters of the ...

Nonlinear Elastic Material Property Estimation of Lower Extremity Residual Limb Tissues [PDF]
, 2003 The interface stresses between the residual limb and prosthetic socket have been studied to investigate prosthetic fit. Finite-element models of the residual limb-prosthetic socket interface facilitate investigation of the mechanical interface and may ...
