Statics and Rotational Dynamics of Composite Beams
A helicopter, with its capability of vertical take-off and landing, is a crucial means of aerial transportation. In fire-fighting rescue operations and missions for helping survivors of an earthquake or an avalanche, helicopters have played vital roles. The expansion of the domain of the application of helicopters, however, faces a few serious constraints; among them is the relatively poor r…

Statics-Learning from Engineering Examples
Mathematical and physical theories cannot be used directly to solve real-life problems because models (theories) take into account only the most important physical quantities and cannot account for each particular characteristic of the given problem. The real-life engineering problems usually deal with objects of complicated geometrical configuration that cannot be easily modeled. Thus, si…

Ordered Random Variables : Theory and Applications
Ordered Random Variables have attracted several authors. The basic building block of Ordered Random Variables is Order Statistics which has several applications in extreme value theory and ordered estimation. The general model for ordered random variables, known as Generalized Order Statistics has been introduced relatively recently by Kamps (1995).

Model-Free Prediction and Regression
The Model-Free Prediction Principle expounded upon in this monograph is based on the simple notion of transforming a complex dataset to one that is easier to work with, e.g., i.i.d. or Gaussian. As such, it restores the emphasis on observable quantities, i.e., current and future data, as opposed to unobservable model parameters and estimates thereof, and yields optimal predictors in diverse set…
