Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE MANAGEMENT OF UNCERTAINTY: MODEL FOR EVALUATION OF HUMAN ERROR PROBABILITY IN RAILWAY SYSTEMLombardi Mara, Guarascio Massimo, Rossi GiulianoThe methodology of quantitative risk assessment in use in the railway industry refers the RAMS approach, as expected in EN 50126, to define the failure of the system. From the probability of failure follows the evaluation of the failure consequence, the check of the accident occurrence and finally, the analysis of the achievable accident scenarios to quantify the damage as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Dec 2013 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHROUGHPUT ANALYSIS OF AGGREGATION WITH FRAGMENT RETRANSMISSION PLUS QUALITY OF SERVICE SCHEMETeuku Yuliar Arif, Riri Fitri SariAggregation with Fragment Retransmission (AFR) is a scheme designed for frame transmission to increase efficiency at the MAC layer throughput. AFR provides a higher throughput compare to Distributed Coordination Function (DCF) scheme. However AFR scheme did not has QoS service function when compared to DCF scheme. DCF scheme already has contention-based QoS service using Enhanced Distributed Coordination Function (EDCA) scheme. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 7,321 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractESTIMATION OF CLAIM COST DATA USING ZERO ADJUSTED GAMMA AND INVERSE GAUSSIAN REGRESSION MODELSYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Saiful Hafizah JamaanIn actuarial and insurance literatures, several researchers suggested generalized linear regression models (GLM) for modeling claim costs as a function of risk factors. The modeling of claim costs involving both zero and positive claims experience has been carried out by fitting the claim costs collectively using Tweedie model. However, the probability of zero claims in Tweedie model is not allowed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2013 · 7,265 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractON THE PRODUCT AND RATIO OF TWO GENERALIZED ORDER STATISTICS FROM THE GENERALIZED BURR TYPE-II DISTRIBUTIONMohamed MaswadahIn this study, the probability density functions of the product and quotient of two generalized order statistics from the generalized Burr Type-XII distribution have been derived, using the Mellin transform and its inverse. Several interesting special cases have also been obtained such as the product and quotient of extreme generalized order statistics and the product and quotient of consecutive generalized … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 May 2013 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIs Cancer Recurrence Postponed By a Treatment? A New Model AnswersRamalingam ShanmugamDuring a treatment period of a cancer patient, the medical team ponders over a question: Is patient’s cancer recurrence significantly postponed by the medication, even if the illness is not completely cured? This question could be answered with data evidence if the data are analyzed with an appropriate model and a suitable methodology. A scanning of the literature reveals that … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of Parameter Estimation on Hazard Rate of Trivariate Weibull DistributionIrfan Wahyudi, Purhadi, Irhamah, SutiknoIn this study, the interrelation concepts of trivariate distribution function, trivariate survival function, trivariate probability density function and trivariate hazard rate function of trivariate Weibull distribution are presented. The goal of this contribution is to estimate the trivariate Weibull hazard rate parameters. To reach this goal, we will use an analitical approach in estimating called the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2012 · 8,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Optimum of the Audit SampleGeorgeta Ancuta Span, Irimie Emil PopaProblem statement: The primary objective of any audit mission is to obtain a high level of assurance on the fact that financial statements are prepared in accordance with a general financial reporting framework. Getting an absolute level of assurance is not possible due to the complexity and big number of transactions and operations found in practice. This research aims to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 8 · 2 Jul 2012 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetention Pond Sediment Accumulation Prediction using Monte Carlo SimulationSupiah Shamsudin, Abd Rashid Mohd Darom, Irma Norazurah Mohamad, Azmi Ab RahmanProblem statement: A study in Malaysia had been carried out to predict the sediment accumulation in urban detention ponds. Suspended sediment is pollutant of primary concern to the river that results in adverse environmental effect. Detention pond becomes a practical approach to this problem. Suspended sediment that settled in stormwater detention pond, can bring effect to the detention pond functions. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProposed Reliability Techniques on Soil and Rock ExcavationsS. TangchawalProblem statement: Assessment of the ground mass excavation is normally done by the deterministic method. A quantitative indication of mass stability provides as an index term known "the Factor of Safety (F.S.)". There are uncertain to some degrees, such as only a single value of mass properties is used or variation in geologic conditions, computed values of F.S. are never … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2012 · 7,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating some Reliability Analysis Methodologies in Seismic DesignA. El Ghoulbzouri, A. Khamlichi, F. Lopez Almansa et al.Problem statement: Accounting for uncertainties that were present in geometric and material data of reinforced concrete buildings was performed in this study within the context of performance based seismic engineering design. Approach: Reliability of the expected performance state is assessed by using various methodologies based on finite element nonlinear static pushover analysis and specialized reliability software package. Reliability approaches that … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,847 accessesView PDFCite
