Internal dynamics of the short-term commercial aircraft engine leasing market
… forecast is then used in a single SKU inventory model to set inventory levels. Using historical data this method demonstrates the ability to recommend inventory levels that minimize stock outs. A less computationally intensive system dynamics model is then constructed to replicate the lease …

Security of Watermarking Schemes Against Sensitivity Analysis Attacks
… detector. In order to build such framework, we model sensitivity analysis attacks as a general watermark estimation problem in which the adversary controls how informative the measurements will be about the watermark. We evaluate the fundamental performance limits for the attacker's watermark …

Evaluation and Application of a New Shape-sensitive Metric Useful for Characterizing Both Spectral Curves and Lidar Waveforms
… samples were simulated using the physicallybased models PROSPECT (a leaf model) and SAIL (a canopy model). Sensitivity analysis was conducted with the goal of understanding the sensitivity of the new framework to leaf and canopy parameters relative to other existing and widely-used vegetation …

The development and analysis of a multi-attribute quality control cost model
A multi-attribute quality control cost model is presented in this thesis. The mathematical model expresses the expected total cost of the quality system per lot as a function of the decision variables, nᵢ and cᵢ, i = 1, 2, . . . , m, where nᵢ is the sample size for the ith attribute. cᵢ is the …

The UK wind regime - Observational trends and extreme event analysis and modelling
… a challenging region for forecast- and climate-modelling alike. In Europe, strong winds within extra-tropical cyclones (ETCs) remain on average the most economically significant weather peril when averaged over multiple years, so an understanding how ETCs cause extreme surface winds and how …

Optimization of Biological Nitrogen Removal From Fermented Dairy Manure Using Low Levels of Dissolved Oxygen
… kinetic parameters in BioWin®, a biological modeling simulator, which indicated the presence of a nitrification inhibitor in fermented dairy manure. Furthermore, an N balance during the aerobic zone indicated that simultaneous nitrification-denitrification (SND) was occurring in the aerobic …

A methodology for thermal analysis and predictive control of building envelope heating systems
… in this study integrates building thermal analysis and predictive control of BEHS. A computer method for generating the symbolic transfer function of buildings is developed as the first part of the methodology. It includes hybrid signal flowgraph and generalized-nodal admittance …

MATLODE: A MATLAB ODE Solver and Sensitivity Analysis Toolbox
Sensitivity analysis quantifies the effect that of perturbations of the model inputs have on the model's outputs. Some of the key insights gained using sensitivity analysis are to understand the robustness of the model with respect to perturbations, and to select the most important parameters for …

Development of a Design-Based Computational Model of Bioretention Systems
… Results generated from long-term frequency analysis of 60-year precipitation data demonstrate that the 90 percentile, or 10-year return period rainfall depth and dry duration in Virginia are between 22.9 – 35.6 mm and 15.3 – 25.8 days, respectively. Monte-Carlo simulations demonstrated that …
