(Eugenides Foundation, 2011-10-13)Kernel density estimators are a non-parametric method of estimating the probability density function of sample data. In this paper, the method is applied to find characteristic maximum daily truck weights on highway ...

(Elsevier, 2011-07)Many highway bridges carry traffic in two same-direction lanes, and modeling the traffic loading on such bridges has been the subject of numerous studies. Different assumptions have been used to model multiple-presence ...

(University College Dublin. School of Business. Centre for Financial Markets, 2004-04-18)A quantity known as the Local Cross-Entropy (LCE) for a density is proposed, defined to be the local derivative of the Cross-Entropy between a density and a ’kernel-smoothed’ version of itself, with respect to bandwidth ...

(CRC Press, 2010)Accurate traffic loading models based on measured data are essential for the accurate assessment of existing bridges. There are well-established methods for the Monte Carlo simulation of single lanes of traffic, and this ...

(BCRI, 2010-09-02)Accurate traffic loading models based on measured weigh-in-motion (WIM) data are essential for the accurate assessment of existing bridges. Much work has been published on the Monte Carlo simulation of single lanes of ...

(University College Dublin. Urban Institute Ireland, 2008)The EPA-funded Urban Environment Project seeks to apply MOLAND, a cellular automata based model, to predict a range of urban impacts in the Greater Dublin Region from 2006 onwards. One quantitative requirement, at least ...

(Global Association of Risk Professionals, 2000)Accurate forecasting of risk is the key to successful risk management techniques. Correct modelling of a variable's extreme values located at the distributional tails accounting for the fat-tail phenomena is paramount, and ...

(2008-06)Road roughness is a broad term that incorporates everything from potholes and cracks to the random deviations that exist in a profile. To build a roughness index, road irregularities need to be measured first. Existing ...

(Institution of Civil Engineers, 2011-08-01)The paper considers the current state of the art for estimating the pull-out capacity of driven open-ended piles used to support wind turbine foundations founded on sand. The latest edition of the American Petroleum Institute ...

(Elsevier, 2012-11)Significant research effort has led to improvements in our ability to estimate the ultimate bearing resistance of footings in sand. These techniques often estimate the footing resistance at relatively large displacements, ...
