These laws form the basis of sampling theory, namely hypothesis testing and estimation. Namely the gamma, beta, and Student law, through the chi-square law and the normal law are all distributions resulting from applications of Euleur functions.展开更多

It consists of the harmonic balance with linearization in which Jacobian elliptic functions are used instead of circular trigonometric functions. We show that a simple change of independent variable followed by a careful choice of the form of anharmonic solution enable to obtain highly accurate approximate solutions. In particular our examples show that the proposed method is as easy to use as existing harmonic balance based methods and yet provides substantially greater accuracy.展开更多

In this paper we subject a single-degree-of-freedom system, consisting of spring and damper, to an earthquake excitation, and meanwhile investigate the response behavior from a novel theory about the dynamical system, by viewing the time-varying signum function of It can reflect the characteristic property of each earthquake through and the second component of f, where is a time-sampling record of the acceleration of a ground motion. The barcode is formed by plotting with respect to time. We analyze the complex jumping behavior in a barcode and an essential property of a high percentage occupation of the first set of dis-connectivity in the barcode from four strong earthquake records: 1940 El Centro earthquake, 1989 Loma earthquake, and two records of 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake. Through the comparisons of four earthquakes, we can observe that strong earthquake leads to large percentage of the first set of dis-connectivity.展开更多
