The acoustic signals produced by the Dungeness crab (Cancer
magister) were investigated. The signals were examined for duration times and frequency content. The signals were converted from analog to digital form, and the autocorrelation functions and the power density spectrums were determined.
The signals produced by Dungeness and Japanese red...
This thesis gives a procedure for generalizing the concept of
conditional probability applied to the case of the bivariate probability
density function.
The conditional probability density function is desired where the two variables vary according to some prescribed path Φ which lies in the plane of the two variables. Instead...
This thesis is concerned with the problem of developing a
method to categorize probability models by their outlier properties.
There have been two such categorization methods proposed in the
literature. Neyman and Scott (1971) classify an entire family of
distributions into the outlier properties outlier-prone completely
(OPC) and outlier resistant....
The purpose of this study is to determine if the problem of
scheduling instructors to classes can be formulated as a linear
program involving integer variables limited to values of zero and
one. Once such a formulation is accomplished, attempts at electronic computer solution of the problem are considered.
Specifically,...
The force, temperature, and time relationships were
investigated by using oscilloscope measurement techniques. Force was measured using a strain gage and the dynamic
response recorded with a polaroid oscilloscope camera.
Temperature was measured with a tungsten-rhenium thermocouple
and recorded in the same manner. Residual stress
measurements were made to determine...
