Robustness & Precision Of Parametric & Distribution-Free Tolerance Limits For Two Lifetime Distributions, Wei Kei Shiue, Lee J. Bain
Robustness & Precision Of Parametric & Distribution-Free Tolerance Limits For Two Lifetime Distributions, Wei Kei Shiue, Lee J. Bain
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
Exact parametric tolerance limits or confidence limits on reliability are not available for the gamma distribution, and it is, difficult to determine approximate methods which are accurate for all parameter values. The precision lost by using the distribution-free tolerance-limit method based on the first order statistic, compared to using an approximate gamma tolerance limit method is studied. The robustness of the approximate gamma tolerance limit when the true model is Weibull and the robustness of a Weibull tolerance limit when the true model is gamma are also studied. The efficiency of the distribution-free method ranges from about 0.60 to 0.90 …

Periodic Points For Homeomorphisms Of Hereditarily Decomposable Chainable Continua, W. T. Ingram
Periodic Points For Homeomorphisms Of Hereditarily Decomposable Chainable Continua, W. T. Ingram
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
In this paper it is shown that homeomorphisms of hereditarily decomposable chainable continua cannot have periodic points whose periods are not powers of two. Examples show that for each power of two there is a hereditarily decomposable chainable continuum and a homeomorphism of it which has a periodic point of period that power of two. © 1989 American Mathematical Society.
Impedance Controlled Connector Interface, Stephen L. Clark
Impedance Controlled Connector Interface, Stephen L. Clark
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works
A connector interface for electrically mating a multi-row connector with a printed circuit board is defined by a flex circuit in the form of laminated polyimide layers having conductive traces for each interconnect pair with connection fields at the opposite ends of the traces for electrical connection to the terminal pins on the connector and the conductive pads or pins on the circuit board. The conductive traces are all of equal length to provide equal resistance and impedance paths for each of the circuit interconnects.
