A profile least-squares technique for estimating the parametric part is proposed and the asymptotic normality of the profile least-squares estimator is given. Based on the estimator, a generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) test is proposed to test whether parameters on linear part for the model is under a contain linear restricted condition. Under the null model, the proposed GLR statistic follows asymptotically the χ2-distribution with the scale constant and degree of freedom independent of the nuisance parameters, known as Wilks phenomenon. Both simulated and real data examples are used to illustrate our proposed methods.展开更多

The flow fields are meshed using body-fitted mesh and structured grids. The parameters of the hull modification function are the design variables. A three-dimensional modeling method is used to alter the geometry. The Non-Linear Programming(NLP) method is utilized to optimize a David Taylor Model Basin(DTMB) model 5415 ship under the constraints, including the displacement constraint. The optimization results show an effective reduction of the resistance. The two hull form design methods developed in this study can provide technical support and theoretical basis for designing green ships.展开更多

In addition, higher order Aitken extrapolation is introduced that enables successive decomposition of high Eigen values of the iteration matrix to enable convergence. While extrapolation of a convergent fixed point iteration using a geometric series sum is a known form of Aitken acceleration, it is shown that in this paper, the same formula can be used to estimate the solution of sets of linear equations from diverging Gauss-Seidel iterations. In both convergent and divergent iterations, the ratios of differences among the consecutive values of iteration eventually form a convergent (divergent) series with a factor equal to the largest Eigen value of the iteration matrix. Higher order Aitken extrapolation is shown to eliminate the influence of dominant Eigen values of the iteration matrix in successive order until the iteration is determined by the lowest possible Eigen values. For the convergent part of the Gauss-Seidel iteration, further acceleration is made possible by coupling of the extrapolation technique with the successive over relaxation (SOR) method. Application examples from both convergent and divergent iterations have been provided. Coupling of the extrapolation with the SOR technique is also illustrated for a steady state two dimensional heat flow problem which was solved using MATLAB programming.展开更多

The upper fluid was assumed to be bounded above by a rigid lid, which is an approximation for the free surface, and the lower one was bounded below by an impermeable bottom surface having a small deformation; the channel was unbounded in the horizontal directions. Assuming irrotational motion, the perturbation technique was employed to calculate the first-order corrections of the velocity potential in the two fluids by using Green＇s integral theorem suitably with the introduction of appropriate Green＇s functions. Those functions help in calculating the reflection and transmission coefficients in terms of integrals involving the shape ftmction c（x） representing the bottom deformation. Three-dimensional linear water wave theory was utilized for formulating the relevant boundary value problem. Two special examples of bottom deformation were considered to validate the results. Consideration of a patch of sinusoidal ripples （having the same wave number） shows that the reflection coefficient is an oscillatory function of the ratio of twice the x-component of the wave number to the ripple wave number. When this ratio approaches one, the theory predicts a resonant interaction between the bed and the interface, and the reflection coefficient becomes a multiple of the number of ripples. High reflection of incident wave energy occurs if this number is large. Similar results were observed for a patch of sinusoidal ripples having different wave numbers. It was also observed that for small angles of incidence, the reflected energy is greater compared to other angles of incidence up to π/ 4. These theoretical observations are supported by graphical results.展开更多

In the vast majority of these applications, the number of constraints is significantly larger than the number of variables. Since the crucial subject of these problems is to detect the constraints that will be verified as equality in an optimal solution, there are methods for investigating such constraints to accelerate the whole process. In this paper, a technique named proximity technique is addressed, which under a proposed theoretical framework gives an ascending order to the constraints in such a way that those with low ranking are characterized of high priority to be binding. Under this framework, two new Linear programming optimization algorithms are introduced, based on a proposed Utility matrix and a utility vector accordingly. For testing the addressed algorithms firstly a generator of 10,000 random linear programming problems of dimension n with m constraints, where , is introduced in order to simulate as many as possible real-world problems, and secondly, real-life linear programming examples from the NETLIB repository are tested. A discussion of the numerical results is given. Furthermore, already known methods for solving linear programming problems are suggested to be fitted under the proposed framework.展开更多
