Statistical comparison of customized and traditional knee implants using Finite Element Analyses
(Wichita State University, 2007-07)According to the National Center for Health Statistics in 2004 over 478,000 people Underwent Total Knee Replacement surgeries in 2004. The number is rapidly growing due to advances in implant surgeries, knee implants, and ... -
Statistical estimation of route expiry times in on-demand ad hoc routing protocols
(IEEE, 2005-11-07)On-demand routing protocols discover routes only when the source node has a packet to send to the destination. These protocols cache previously discovered routes in order to reduce the routing overheads as well as to ... -
Statistical presentation of the flight environment of the propellers on commuter aircraft
(Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2009-05-01)Data obtained from digital flight data recorders installed on a fleet of 27 Beech 1900D airliners are used to assess the actual operational environment of propellers on commuter aircraft. The data consists of 910 complete ... -
Statistical process control implementations within the aviation industry
(Wichita State University, 2021-07)In 1931, Walter Shewhart introduced his work in statistical process control (SPC) through his book, Economic Control of Quality of Manufactured Product. A common confusion in the use of SPC is that it does not fit every ... -

Statistics
(Routledge, 2022-02-07)The cyber landscape is inherently complex. Although cyber-attacks of varying magnitude are frequently observed every day, many cyber-related crimes still go underreported. The data collected from these observations may be ... -
Steady-state and transient-state analyses of renewable energy inverter
(Wichita State University, 2012-05)Distributed resources (DR), such as residential small wind turbines and solar cells, generate electrical energy in the form of a direct current (DC). An inverter is needed to convert this DC power into an alternating current ... -
Stochastic control of unified decentralized singularly perturbed systems
(2006-05)The design of a stochastic optimal controller using state feedback and output feedback is developed for unified, decentralized, singularly perturbed systems with Gaussian noise. To filter out the external noises contained ... -
Stochastic dynamic resource allocation for HIV prevention and treatment: An approximate dynamic programming approach
(Elsevier, 2018-04)Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a key global health concern, with 33 million people living with HIV worldwide and 2.7 million new infections occurring annually. To prevent the spread of this widely prevalent epidemic ... -
Stochastic geometry analysis of reference signal spoofing attack in wireless networks
(IEEE, 2016)Cell association is a critical aspect of cellular network operation wherein mobile terminals (MTs) connect to optimal base stations before commencing data transmission and reception. This paper investigates a novel physical ... -
Stochastic load and renewable resource control for smart distribution system
(Wichita State University, 2016-05)Electric vehicles (EVs) have been introduced as the demand for green transportation has increased. EVs require charging. Studies have shown that uncontrolled EV charging in certain areas of the community reduces the life ... -
A stochastic modeling of aggregated vehicle-to-grid for reliability assessment of distribution network
(IEEE, 2015)This paper proposes a stochastic modeling of aggregated vehicle-to-grid (V2G) based on sequential Monte Carlo simulation for reliability evaluation of distribution network. Uncertainties of electric vehicle (EV) travel ... -
A stochastic multi-criteria decision analysis for sustainable biomass crop selection
(Elsevier Ltd., 2015-09)Selecting the most sustainable biomass crop type for biofuel production is a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem involving various conflicting criteria. In this paper, we propose a unique stochastic analytical ... -
Stochastic network utility maximization in the presence of heavy-tails
(IEEE, 2017)Recent years have witnessed an active research on the stochastic network utility maximization (NUM) problem, where the optimal network resource allocation policy, such as congestion control, routing, and scheduling, is ... -
