Single-Phase convective heat transfer and pressure drop coefficients in concentric annualVan Zyl, W.R. (Warren Reece) January 2013 (has links)
Varying diameter ratios associated with smooth concentric tube-in-tube heat exchangers
are known to have an effect on its convective heat transfer capabilities. Much literature
exists for predicting the inner tube’s heat transfer coefficients, however, limited research
has been conducted for the annulus and some of the existing correlations are known to
have large errors.
Linear and nonlinear regression models exist for determining the heat transfer coefficients,
however, these are complex and time consuming methods and require much experimental data in order to obtain accurate solutions. A direct solution to obtain the heat transfer
coefficients in the annulus is sought after.
In this study a large dataset of experimental measurements on heat exchangers with
annular diameter ratios of 0.483, 0.579, 0.593 and 0.712 was gathered. The annular
diameter ratio is defined as the ratio of the outer diameter of the inner tube to the inner
diameter of the outer tube. Using various methods, the data was processed to determine
local and average Nusselt numbers in the turbulent flow regime. These methods included
the modified Wilson plot technique, a nonlinear regression scheme, as well as the log mean
temperature difference method. The inner tube Reynolds number exponent was assumed
to be a constant 0.8 for both the modified Wilson plot and nonlinear regression methods.
The logarithmic mean temperature difference method was used for both a mean analysis on
the full length of the heat exchanger, and a local analysis on finite control volumes. Friction
factors were calculated directly from measured pressure drops across the annuli.
The heat exchangers were tested for both a heated and cooled annulus, and arranged in a
horizontal counter-flow configuration with water as the working medium. Data was
gathered for Reynolds numbers (based on the hydraulic diameter) varying from 10 000 to 28
000 for a heated annulus and 10 000 to 45 000 for a cooled annulus. Local inner wall
temperatures which are generally difficult to determine, were measured with
thermocouples embedded within the wall. Flow obstructions within the annuli were
minimized, with only the support structures maintaining concentricity of the inner and outer
tubes impeding flow. / Dissertation (MEng)--University of Pretoria, 2013. / gm2014 / Mechanical and Aeronautical Engineering / unrestricted

Robust estimation of the number of components for mixtures of linear regressionMeng, Li January 1900 (has links)
Master of Science / Department of Statistics / Weixin Yao / In this report, we investigate a robust estimation of the number of components in the
mixture of regression models using trimmed information criterion. Compared to the traditional information criterion, the trimmed criterion is robust and not sensitive to outliers. The superiority of the trimmed methods in comparison with the traditional information
criterion methods is illustrated through a simulation study. A real data application is also
used to illustrate the effectiveness of the trimmed model selection methods.

Classificação da variação, tamanho ótimo de parcela e curva de crescimento para experimentos com eucalipto /Lopes, Beatriz Garcia January 2019 (has links)
Orientador: Glaucia Amorim Faria / Resumo: O eucalipto é difundido em várias regiões brasileiras e no mundo. Os Estados brasileiros com maiores áreas de plantio do eucalipto são Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul, São Paulo e Paraná. Com crescente contribuição ao longo dos anos, o seu cultivo tem gerado empregos tanto na área rural quanto na área urbana. O que torna de suma importância maiores pesquisas que visem a melhoria das áreas de plantio, maiores informações para condução e melhoria de produção, o que acarretará em maiores ofertas para o mercado nacional. Neste cenário, estudos que auxiliem o pesquisador a conhecer a variabilidade desta cultura, definir o tamanho ideal de parcela e as curvas de crescimento que melhor representem o conjunto de dados ao longo do tempo, serão essenciais para que se faça a inferência correta, se tenha maior precisão e maximização das informações, garantindo maior eficiência do procedimento experimental, como redução do tempo de espera, permitindo ao pesquisador a comparação do comportamento da planta e seus componentes mais relevantes. Para tanto, o trabalho tem por objetivo: a recomendação de uma tabela de classificação de variação (utilizando os métodos de Garcia, Pimentel-Gomes e Costa, Seraphin e Zimmermann); o tamanho ótimo de parcelas (utilizando o método da máxima curvatura modificada) em experimentos em casa de vegetação; o modelo não-linear (Logístico, Gompertz e Von Bertalanffy) que melhor se adeque ao padrão de crescimento ao longo do tempo, em experimentos com a cultura d... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo) / Abstract: Eucalyptus is widespread in several Brazilian regions and in the world. The Brazilian states with the largest eucalyptus plantation areas are Minas Gerais, Mato Grosso do Sul, São Paulo, and Paraná. With growing contribution over the years, its cultivation has generated jobs in both rural and urban areas. This makes more important research to improve the planting areas, greater information for conducting and improving production, which will lead to greater offers for the domestic market. In this scenario, studies that help the researcher to know the variability of this crop, to define the ideal plot size and the growth curves that best represent the data set over time, will be essential for correct inference, if greater accuracy and maximization of information, guaranteeing greater efficiency of the experimental procedure, such as reduction of waiting time, allowing the researcher to compare the behavior of the plant and its most relevant components. To do so, the objective of the study is: to recommend a variation classification table (using the methods of Garcia, Pimentel-Gomes and Costa, Seraphin and Zimmermann); the optimal size of plots (using the modified maximum curvature method) in greenhouse experiments; the non-linear model (Logistic, Gompertz and Von Bertalanffy) that best fit the pattern of growth over time, in experiments with the Eucalyptus crop. / Mestre

Neste trabalho, apresentamos uma extensão da análise bayesiana objetiva feita em Fonseca et al. (2008), baseada nas distribuições a priori de Jeffreys para o modelo de regressão linear com erros t-Student, para os quais consideramos a suposição de heteoscedasticidade. Mostramos que a distribuição a posteriori dos parâmetros do modelo regressão gerada pela distribuição a priori é própria. Através de um estudo de simulação, avaliamos as propriedades frequentistas dos estimadores bayesianos e comparamos os resultados com outras distribuições a priori encontradas na literatura. Além disso, uma análise de diagnóstico baseada na medida de divergência Kullback-Leiber é desenvolvida com a finalidade de estudar a robustez das estimativas na presença de observações atípicas. Finalmente, um conjunto de dados reais é utilizado para o ajuste do modelo proposto. / In this work , we present an extension of the objective bayesian analysis made in Fonseca et al.

Superscalar Processor Models Using Statistical LearningJoseph, P J 04 1900 (has links)
Processor architectures are becoming increasingly complex and hence architects have to evaluate a large design space consisting of several parameters, each with a number of potential settings. In order to assist in guiding design decisions we develop simple and accurate models of the superscalar processor design space using a detailed and validated superscalar processor simulator.
Firstly, we obtain precise estimates of all significant micro-architectural parameters and their interactions by building linear regression models using simulation based experiments. We obtain good approximate models at low simulation costs using an iterative process in which Akaike’s Information Criteria is used to extract a good linear model from a small set of simulations, and limited further simulation is guided by the model using D-optimal experimental designs. The iterative process is repeated until desired error bounds are achieved. We use this procedure for model construction and show that it provides a cost effective scheme to experiment with all relevant parameters.
We also obtain accurate predictors of the processors performance response across the entire design-space, by constructing radial basis function networks from sampled simulation experiments. We construct these models, by simulating at limited design points selected by latin hypercube sampling, and then deriving the radial neural networks from the results. We show that these predictors provide accurate approximations to the simulator’s performance response, and hence provide a cheap alternative to simulation while searching for optimal processor design points.

Previous issue date: 2014-07-30 / Capes / Sugerir os produtos mais apropriados aos diversos tipos de consumidores não é uma tarefa trivial, apesar de ser um fator chave para aumentar satisfação e lealdade destes. Devido a esse fato, sistemas de recomendação têm se tornado uma ferramenta importante para diversas aplicações, tais como, comércio eletrônico, sites personalizados e redes sociais. Recentemente, a fatoração de matrizes se tornou a técnica mais bem sucedida de implementação de sistemas de recomendação. Os parâmetros do modelo de fatoração de matrizes são tipicamente aprendidos por meio de métodos numéricos, tal como o gradiente descendente. O desempenho do gradiente descendente está diretamente relacionada à configuração da taxa de aprendizagem, a qual é tipicamente configurada para valores pequenos, com o objetivo de não perder um mínimo local. Consequentemente, o algoritmo pode levar várias iterações
para convergir. Idealmente,é desejada uma taxa de aprendizagem que conduza a um mínimo local nas primeiras iterações, mas isto é muito difícil de ser realizado dada a alta complexidade do espaço de valores a serem pesquisados. Começando com um estudo exploratório em várias bases de dados de sistemas de recomendação, observamos que, para a maioria das bases, há um padrão linear entre a taxa de aprendizagem e o número de iterações necessárias
para atingir a convergência. A partir disso, propomos utilizar modelos de regressão lineares
simples para predizer, para uma base de dados desconhecida, um bom valor para a taxa de
aprendizagem inicial. A ideia é estimar uma taxa de aprendizagem que conduza o gradiente

Due to this fact, recommender systems have be come an important tool for many applications, such as e-commerce, personalized websites and social networks. Recently, Matrix Factorization has become the most successful technique to implement recommendation systems. The parameters of this model are typically learned by means of numerical methods, like the gradient descent. The performance of the gradient descent is directly related to the configuration of the learning rate, which is typically set to small values, in order to do not miss a local minimum. As a consequence, the algorithm may take several iterations to converge. Ideally, one wants to find a learning rate that will lead to a local minimum in the early iterations, but this is
very difficult to achieve given the high complexity of search space. Starting with an exploratory study on several recommendation systems datasets, we observed that there is an over all linear relationship between the learnin grate and the number of iterations needed until convergence. From this, we propose to use simple linear regression models to predict, for a unknown dataset, a good value for an initial learning rate. The idea is to estimate a learning
rate that drives the gradient descent as close as possible to a local minimum in the first
iteration. We evaluate our technique on 8 real-world recommender datasets and compared it with the standard Matrix Factorization learning algorithm, which uses a fixed value for the learning rate over all iterations, and techniques fromt he literature that adapt the learning rate. We show that we can reduce the number of iterations until at 40% compared to the standard approach.
