چکیده
The research is financed by Asian Development Bank. No. 2006-A171(Sponsoring information) Abstract A new circular probability distribution which is based on GvM (generalization of the von Mises) is proposed. The new distribution is used to construct a joint probability distribution which is applied to fit joint distribution of linear and circular variables such as wind speed and wind direction. The results of several numerical experiments show that compared with the existing distribution models, the new circular distribution and the new constructed joint distribution in the paper can provide higher degree of the fit for the wind data under study.

Skew-slash distribution and its application in topics regression
In many issues of statistical modeling, the common assumption is that observations are normally distributed. In many real data applications, however, the true distribution is deviated from the normal. Thus, the main concern of most recent studies on analyzing data is to construct and the use of alternative distributions. In this regard, new classes of distributions such as slash and skew-sla...
متن کاملUsing Weibull probability distribution to calibrate prevailing wind applying in oil spill simulation
In the Persian Gulf, the major source of oil pollution is related to the transportation of tankers, offshore production and discharges by coastal refineries. The water dynamical field has been obtained using a new hydrodynamic model. Local wind is recognized as the principal driving force combining to the water dynamic field to determine oil drift on the sea surface. The Weibull probability dis...
متن کاملBeta-Linear Failure Rate Distribution and its Applications
We introduce in this paper a new four-parameter generalized version of the linear failure rate distribution which is called Beta-linear failure rate distribution. The new distribution is quite flexible and can be used effectively in modeling survival data and reliability problems. It can have a constant, decreasing, increasing and bathtub-shaped failure rate function depending on its parameter...
متن کاملA Perturbed Half-normal Distribution and Its Applications
In this paper, a new generalization of the half-normal distribution which is called the perturbed half-normal distribution is introduced. The new distribution belongs to a family of distributions which includes the half-normal distribution along with an extra parameter to regulate skewness. The probability density function (pdf) is derived and some various properties of the new distribution are...
متن کاملPerformance improvement of a wind turbine blade using a developed inverse design method
The purpose of this study is to improve the aerodynamic performance of wind turbine blades, using the Ball-Spine inverse design method. The inverse design goal is to calculate a geometry corresponds to a given pressure distribution on its boundaries. By calculating the difference between the current and target pressure distributions, geometric boundaries are modified so that the pressure di...
