Preliminary attempts in this area are discussed, with thoughts on how to develop this into a more general methodology.
Finally, the proposed procedure has been implemented in a more general methodology for snow map updating, in such a way that the influence of gridded data, predicted by global climate models, on extreme values of snow loads is duly assessed.
Moreover, the cavity optimization problem has only been used as an application example of a much more general methodology used to predict how shape and structure may evolve in different flow problems.
Indeed, there is a great deal of techniques available for digital filter analysis and design, which can be applied to many scenarios; however, only a few works (e.g., Hildare's approach [32]) present a more general methodology, as proposed here.
A more general methodology to obtain the optimal wavelengths selection in a multi-spectral method (taking into account the spectral variations of the global transfer function including the emissivity variations) for temperature measurement of surfaces exhibiting non-uniform emissivity, is also presented.
The anisomorphic constant fatigue life (CFL) diagram approach to prediction of fatigue lives of composites, which was developed in an earlier study, is developed further into a more general methodology that can deal with the mean stress sensitivity in fatigue of composites at different temperatures.
Another, more general methodology with similar ingredients has been published by Hennerfeind, Brezger and Fahrmeir [ 17].
There are initial studies in the literature [ 109, 110] which opt for the development of a more general methodology.
Since the conventional use of graphical methods for residence time minimization of a reactor network is no longer applicable to the system under study due to its high number of reactions, we focus on more general optimization methodologies.
Unlike the other papers which use more general estimation methodologies, Shy offers a 'quick and easy' method for calculating the level of switching costs using only limited data on prices and market shares.
