Optimal double acceptance sampling inspection plans based on inverted Nadarajah-Haghighi distribution by Mehran Naghizadeh Qomi, Zohre Mahdizadeh

“…Purpose: In this paper, we present optimal single acceptance sampling inspection plans for Inverted Nadarajah-Haghighi distribution so that the consumer’s and producer’s risks are controlled simultaneously.Methodology: Nonlinear optimization program is used to obtain the optimal sample size and acceptance number as well as the associated consumer’s and producer’s risks.Findings: Optimal sample size and acceptance number are obtained in generalized half-normal distribution. Two real data sets are given for illustrating the results.Originality/Value: Two-point method is used to find the best plan by using nonlinear programing optimization problem. …”

Multiple Fault Identification Method in the Frequency Domain for Rotor Systems by Nicolò Bachschmid, Paolo Pennacchi

“…Fault identification in rotor systems has been studied by many authors, but the considered malfunction is one single fault only, generally an unbalance. Real machines can be affected by several different types of faults; moreover sometimes also two different faults may develop simultaneously. …”

On the small scale nonlinear theory of operator spaces by Braga, Bruno M., Chávez-Domínguez, Javier Alejandro

“…The authors have previously shown that a map between operator spaces which is completely coarse (that is, the sequence of its amplifications is equi-coarse) must be $\mathbb{R}$-linear. We obtain a generalization of the aforementioned result to completely coarse maps defined on the unit ball of an operator space. …”

Depth first traversal algorithm for the back-off tree of distributed queuing by Wennai WANG, Yanhe ZHANG, Wei WU, Chen BAI, Bin WANG

“…An analytic model was provided for the conventional distributed queueing (DQ) and its back-off tree operations, followed by a design of improving algorithm based on depth first traversal.Combing the specific analysis of complete binary tree with generalized extension by random tree reconstruction, the performance of proposed algorithm was evaluated on the throughput in both theory and simulation experiment.A theoretic optimal solution of contention slots of DQ frame and a brief description of simulation extension based on the open source NS-3 were presented.The simulation results show that the maximum stationary throughput by the proposed algorithm reaches 70% of the physical capacity of channel.…”
