The purpose of this study is therefore, to introduce a methodology to apply probabilistic features in the tunnel structure design based on design safety factors which are considered in the calculation stage of tunnel structure which is usually being dome using the numerical results of the FE analyses.
The results are used to compare with calculated usage factors, based on design curves without taking environmental effects particularly into account.
An objective function is proposed based on design variables (composite thicknesses) and two penalty factors that evaluate the performance of the liner and the composite material.
The second strategy, called multi-step strategy, combines different methods of analysis such as Mixed Logit Model based on the design factors only, followed by Principal Component Analysis and Partial Least Squares regression to study consumer attributes.
Based on the design factors, the engineering chart for the thermal performance of cast-in-place energy piles was developed.
In addition, this study proposes possible transfer station locations based on various design factors like open land availability, ease of access from all the composting units/dustbin locations, transfer means by tractor trailers, and sanitation and environmental requirements.
This analysis provides a rationale for assigning safety factor values based on designing a robust process that allows for scale differences, process variability, data extrapolation, and process expansion.
Engineered transcription factors and endonucleases based on designed Cys2His2 zinc finger domains have proven to be effective tools for the directed regulation and modification of genes.
In 2006, Lok et al. [ 12] published a scoring system for stratifying AVF FTM risk based on clinical factors, designed to be used as an adjunct in planning vascular access for haemodialysis.
Based on these factors, we design food supply chains for ships in Fig. 2.
