Branching Processes with Detection: Probabilistic Analysis
… behaviour of the detected processes. Our analysis also addresses specific questions, for example, in the case of continuous-time branching processes, we obtain an explicit generating function expression for the cluster size at the time of first detection, and we apply a coupling technique …

Probabilistic analysis of turbine blade durability
… variants were examined using deterministic and probabilistic approaches. External thermal and pressure boundary conditions were generated by three-dimensional CFD calculations. The location of expected failure was the bottom of the trailing edge cooling slot and was the same for all three …

Probabilistic analysis of meanline compressor rotor performance
… their respective nominal values. A parametric analysis using a response surface showed that near stall, tip clearance variation drives performance variation; the pressure rise and loss coefficient standard deviation drop by 26% and 20% when tip clearance variability is removed. At design, tip …

Probabilistic analysis of the plastic collapse of random media
Two new, efficient probabilistic methods are presented for evaluating the reliability of an elastic/perfectly plastic continuous medium exhibiting randomly varying yield strength. Both the Tresca and Mohr-Coulomb yield criteria are considered in the present study. The two probabilistic methods …

Probabilistic analysis of compression system stability using importance sampling
The probability of instability is computed via a new approach based on Importance Sampling and a dynamic compression system model. In contrast to ordinary Monte Carlo methods Importance Sampling offers reduced confidence intervals, reduced number of samples and reduced model execution times. The …

Probabilistic Analysis and Scheduling of Critical Soft Real -Time Systems
Allowing a real-time system to miss some deadlines in exchange for better average performance increases the possibility of overload. While overload in real-time systems has been studied, the emphasis has been on hard real-time systems in which overload is an exception whose occurrence is to be …

Probabilistic Analysis of a Thin-walled Beam with a Crack
… Instead of conducting a detailed finite element analysis, the solution is obtained in an exact sense for general distributed loads representing the wind pressure effects. This analytical approach is shown to provide very accurate values for the global beam response compared with the detailed …

Robotic radiation mapping using modelling and probabilistic analysis of sparse data
An approach for generating radiation intensity maps, comprised of a mobile robotic platform and an integrated radiation model, is presented, and its ability to generate accurate radiation maps in simulation studies as well as real-life exposure scenarios are investigated. The radiation intensity …

Probabilistic Analysis of the Material and Shape Properties for Human Liver
… properties of the human liver. Statistical shape analysis was applied to analyze the geometrical variation using a surface set of 15 adult human livers recorded in an occupant posture. Principal component analysis was then utilized to obtain the modes of variation, the mean model, and a set of 95% …

Application of Geographic Information System and Probabilistic Analysis for Water Pipeline Renewal Prioritization
… systems (DSS), and the presentation of the analysis results for the spatially distributed water main network is facilitated through the use of a Geographic Information System (GIS). However, in many studies, the integration of the probabilistic analysis models and a GIS to prioritize the …
