Integrated Multiscale Latent Variable Regression and Application to Distillation Columns by Muddu Madakyaru, Mohamed N. Nounou, Hazem N. Nounou

“…In this work, the advantages of multiscale filtering are utilized to enhance the prediction accuracy of LVR models by developing an integrated multiscale LVR (IMSLVR) modeling algorithm that integrates modeling and feature extraction. The idea behind the IMSLVR modeling algorithm is to filter the process data at different decomposition levels, model the filtered data from each level, and then select the LVR model that optimizes a model selection criterion. …”

Role of plasticity-induced crack closure in fatigue crack growth by Jesús Toribio, Viktor Kharin

“…Near-tip deformation patterns discard the filling-in a crack with material stretched out of the crack plane in the wake behind the tip as supposed PICC origin. Despite the absence of closure, load-deformation curves appear bent, which raises doubts about the trustworthiness of closure assessment from the compliance variation. …”
