Probabilistic approach for fatigue evaluation of welded connections with application to road steel bridges

Fatigue analysis of steel bridges asks for consideration of welded joints. Traditional fatigue analysis of welded joints under variable amplitude loadings is based on the nominal stress approach, wherein constant amplitude (CA) S-N curves are used in combi ...

Bayesian Semiparametrics for Modelling the Clustering of Extreme Values

Thomas Lugrin

Extreme events can be statistically characterised as excesses of a high threshold. Inference in this case has to account for dependence between excesses. The peaks over threshold approach suggests pre-processing the series by defining clusters of successiv ...

Inferring the magnetic field vector in the quiet Sun III. Disk variation of the Stokes profiles and isotropism of the magnetic field

Philipp Kobel

Recent investigations of the magnetic field vector properties in the solar internetwork have provided diverging results. While some works found that the internetwork is mostly pervaded by horizontal magnetic fields, other works argued in favor of an isotro ...

Statistical analysis of the current-sharing temperature evolution in Nb3Sn cable-in-conduit-conductors for ITER

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Davide Uglietti, Boris Stepanov, Rainer Wesche

During the test of ITER conductors at nominal conditions, a degradation of the current sharing temperature has been observed after electromagnetic cyclic loading. Rather than focusing on the microscopic phenomena at the origin of the degradation, the degra ...

A Comparison Between Joint Coordinate System and Attitude Vector for Multi-segment foot Kinematics

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Xavier Crevoisier, Hossein Rouhani

The joint angles of multi-segment foot models have been primarily described using two mathematical methods: the joint coordinate system and the attitude vector. This study aimed to determine whether the angles obtained through these two descriptors are com ...

Next step: on the validation of the Q index to identify optimal locations for economic activities

Stéphane Joost, Olivier Monod

The present study proposes a validation of a mathematical index Q able to identify optimal geographic places for economic activities, solely based on the location variable. This research work takes its roots in the 1970s with the statistical analysis of sp ...

Fusing Loop Detector and Probe Vehicle Data to Estimate Travel Time Statistics on Signalized Urban Networks

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Ashish Bhaskar

This article presents a methodology that integrates cumulative plots with probe vehicle data for estimation of travel time statistics (average, quartile) on urban networks. The integration reduces relative deviation among the cumulative plots so that the c ...

Analysis for the Use of Cumulative Plots for Travel Time Estimation on Signalized Network

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Ashish Bhaskar

This paper provides fundamental understanding for the use of cumulative plots for travel time estimation on signalized urban networks. Analytical modeling is performed to generate cumulative plots based on the availability of data: a) Case-D, for detector ...

Travel time prediction on urban network by integrating stop-line detector data, signal controller data and probe information

André-Gilles Dumont, Edward Chung, Ashish Bhaskar

In urban network, detectors are generally used for signal control. If the data from detectors are also used for travel time estimation and fed back to the traffic management and information systems then it will be a significant contribution for managing ur ...
