In Demography and modelling mortality (or failure) data the univariate Makeham-Gompertz is well-known for its extension of exponential distribution. Here, a bivariate class of Gompertz--Makeham distribution is constructed based on random number of extremal events. Some reliability properties such as ageing intensity, stress-strength based on competing risks are given. Also dependence properties...

Phase inversion in liquid-liquid dispersions corresponds to the transitional boundary between Oil-in-Aqueous dispersion and Aqueous-in-Oil dispersion. A theoretical model based on simple assumptions was proposed to predict phase inversion point, ambivalence region and the hysteresis effect of inversion. Experimental data from the literature were used to validate the model and results were c...

The aim of seismic inversion is mapping all of the subsurface structures from seismic data. Due to the band-limited nature of the seismic data, it is difficult to find a unique solution for seismic inversion. Deterministic methods of seismic inversion are based on try and error techniques and provide a smooth map of elastic properties, while stochastic methods produce high-resolution maps of el...

here in, an application of a new seismic inversion algorithm in one of iran’s oilfields is described. stochastic (geostatistical) seismic inversion, as a complementary method to deterministic inversion, is perceived as contribution combination of geostatistics and seismic inversion algorithm. this method integrates information from different data sources with different scales, as prior informat...

shear-wave velocity ( ) is an important parameter used for site characterization in geotechnical engineering. however, dispersion curve inversion is challenging for most inversion methods due to its high non-linearity and mix-determined trait. in order to overcome these problems, in this study, a joint inversion strategy is proposed based on the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm. the ...

generally, the measured secondary field data is inverted into resistivity using two principal models; the homogeneous half-space model and the layered half-space model. while the homogeneous half-space inversion uses single frequency data, the inversion is done individually for each of the frequencies used, the multi-layer 1d inversion is able to take the data of all frequencies available into ...

a method is described by which it is possible to determine the high barrier to ring inversion and hindered rotation by neat racemization of optically active compounds when the racemization is caused by ring inversion or hindered rotation. the method is based preparation of sufficiently pure enantiomers, mainly by chromatography on swollen microcrystalline triacetylcellulose (tac). by this techn...

ab initio calculations were employed to investigate nitrogen inversion as a configuration change that can supply an infinitely useful switchable control mechanism for some complex systems. in this paper, design of a new artificial molecular nanohinge is discussed based on nitrogen inversion in which reciprocating motion of substituent in effect of inversion phenomenon, led to an open–close moti...
