Two types of uncertainty are encountered in practice, namely aleatory and epistemic uncertainties.
All possible disturbance effects that arise in practice, namely modeling inaccuracies, wind disturbances and ground effect, have been considered in the simulation studies.
Generally three types of moment resisting frames are designed in practice namely Special, Intermediate and Ordinary Moment Frames, each of which has certain level of ductility.
In order to investigate the main involved mechanisms during either splitting or crushing failure, a simplified analytical study is firstly presented on the two load configurations generally adopted in practice, namely the Line Load (LL) and the Point Load (PL).
The latter two correspond to the two different types of propagation that have to be handled in practice, namely line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS).
Several situations were considered according to the type of missing data one might encounter in practice: namely MCAR, MAR or MNAR type of missing data.
The one distribution where this is not the case is the one that works best in practice, namely, the uniform distribution on the standard deviation.
But empirical data indicate that this is exactly where the deficiencies lie, namely in the information practices and involvement in the decision-making process, particularly of younger children [ 24, 28].
White et al. (2010) grouped ten JIT practices in four bundles namely conformance quality practice bundle, delivery reliability practice bundle, volume flexibility practice bundle and low cost practice bundle.
It collected data on staff preferences and views about the impact of DM on established practice, namely in radiographic technique, workflow and workload (Tables 3 and 4).
