Distributed parameters

The HyperChem MMh- code and program also differ from MM2(1977) by having parameters in text files separate from the code. These parameter files are available for your modification and additions. The parameters distributed with HyperChem include the public domain values, generally referred to as the MM2(1991) parameter set, that Dr. Allinger contributed to HyperCube, Inc. Parameters not obtained from Dr. Allinger are appropriately labeled in the distributed parameter files. [Pg.102]

Because each side chain can be identifiably assigned to a particular component, the mixture coefficients and the normal distribution parameters can be detennined separately. [Pg.340]

The estimation of the mean and standard deviation using the moment equations as described in Appendix I gives little indication of the degree of fit of the distribution to the set of experimental data. We will next develop the concepts from which any continuous distribution can be modelled to a set of data. This ultimately provides the most suitable way of determining the distributional parameters. [Pg.140]

It can be seen from Table 4.3 that there is no positive or foolproof way of determining the distributional parameters useful in probabilistic design, although the linear rectification method is an efficient approach (Siddal, 1983). The choice of ranking equation can also affect the accuracy of the calculated distribution parameters using the methods described. Reference should be made to the guidance notes given in this respect. [Pg.147]

A suitable material would be hot rolled mild steel 070M20, which has a minimum yield strength, S jVin = 215 MPa (BS 970, 1991). By considering that the minimum yield strength is —3 standard deviations from the mean and that the typical coefficient of variation = 0.08 for the yield strength of steel, the Normal distribution parameters for 070M20 can be approximated by ...

For each of the 36 bus sections tliat had not already failed, the Weibull distribution was used to detennine tlie probability of failure before tlie next outage. Under assumption (a), tliis probability is P(T < 3301T > 209) i.e., tlie conditional probability of failure before 330 days, given tliat tlie bus section lias survived 209 days. Under assumption (b), tlie corresponding probability is P(T < 330 T > 230). For part (b), tlie estimates of the Weibull distribution parameters used in part (a) were modified to take into consideration tlie absence of failures for 3 additional weeks. [Pg.627]

The line the data supports on a hazard plot determines engineering information relating to the distribution of time to failure. Fan failure data and simulated data are illustrated here to explain how the information is obtained. The methods provide estimates of distribution parameters, percentiles, and probabilities of failure. The methods that give estimates of distribution parameters differ slightly from the hazard paper of one theoretical distribution to another and are given separately for each distribution. The methods that give estimates of distribution percentiles and failure probabilities are the same for all papers and are given first. [Pg.1050]

Given next are the different methods for estimating distribution parameters on exponential, Weibull, normal, log normal, and extreme-value hazard papers. The methods are explained with the aid of simulated data from known distributions. Thus, we can judge from the hazard plots how well the hazard-plotting method does. [Pg.1051]

If estimated of distribution parameters are desired from data plotted on a hazard paper, then the straight line drawn through the data should be based primarily on a fit to the data points near the center of the distribution the sample is from and not be influenced overly by data points in the tails of the distribution. This is suggested because the smallest and largest times to failure in a sample tend to vary considerably from the true cumulative hazard function, and the middle times tend to lie close to it. Similar comments apply to the probability plotting. [Pg.1053]

Figure 9-27. Experimental (dots) and theoretical (solid line) t/V characteristics of. a Ca/PPV/Ca electron-only device with a thickness, L, of 310 nm. The theoretical curve is obtained assuming an exponential trap distribution with a trap density of Nt=5-I()17 cm 1, a trap distribution parameter Tt 1500 K, and an equilibrium electron density n = L5-I011 cm"1. The dashed line gives the hole SLC according to Eq. (9.13). Reproduced from Ref. 85J.

We have put this model into mathematical form. Although we have yet no quantitative predictions, a very general model has been formulated and is described in more detail in Appendix A. We have learned and applied here some lessons from Kilkson s work (17) on interfacial polycondensation although our problem is considerably more difficult, since phase separation occurs during the polymerization at some critical value of a sequence distribution parameter, and not at the start of the reaction. Quantitative results will be presented in a forthcoming pub1ication. [Pg.174]

The sum of squares as defined by Equation 7.8 is the general form for the objective function in nonlinear regression. Measurements are made. Models are postulated. Optimization techniques are used to adjust the model parameters so that the sum-of-squares is minimized. There is no requirement that the model represent a simple reactor such as a CSTR or isothermal PER. If necessary, the model could represent a nonisothermal PFR with variable physical properties. It could be one of the distributed parameter models in Chapters 8 or 9. The model... [Pg.211]
