In the first step, the effective critical crack length for unstable fracture to occur is determined by using two different methods, namely a modified LEFM based fatigue crack propagation law and the crack resistance method.
In this study we focussed on comparing two standard-setting methods (norm – reference and Angoff methods) and evaluating the reliability of one such method, namely the modified Angoff method.
The paper presents a comparative assessment of methods for extreme value analysis of the US wind speed data using four different methods, namely Standard Gumbel, Modified Gumbel, Peaks-Over-Threshold (POT) and Method of Independent Storms (MIS).
The solutions obtained are then compared with those obtained from the literature using some of the MADM methods, namely AHP, TOPSIS, modified TOPSIS and GTMA.
Four numerical methods namely graphical, empirical, modified maximum likelihood, and energy pattern factor were used for month-wise Weibull parameters estimation at hub height of 65 m.
There are several methods to determine the number, locations, and values of the impulsive noise samples, namely Modified Berlekamp-Massey for real fields [118, 119], ELP, IMAT, and constant false alarm rate with recursive detection estimation (CFAR-RDE).
The stress distributions were determined by employing two different methods, namely the finite element method (FEM) assuming either hexagonal or square fiber arrangements, and the Eshelby method modified by Mori and Tanaka to account for the presence of multiple fibers.
The cytotoxic activity of unmodified and modified nanozeolites BaA was investigated on HeLa and HEK-293 cells by two independent methods, namely the MTT and neutral red assays.
In this study, three different hybrid ANFIS methods, namely ANFIS-DE, ANFIS-GA and ANFIS-PSO were used to evaluate the discharge coefficient of a modified triangular side weir.
Figure 4 shows the gray level values used in various different popular thresholding methods namely Otsu [ 22], IsoData [ 25], mean [ 26], maximum entropy [ 27], triangle [ 24] and the proposed modified triangle methods.
