Regression Analysis and Its Application: A Data-Oriented Approach answers the need for researchers and students who would like a better understanding of classical regression analysis. Useful either as a textbook or as a reference source, this book bridges the gap between the purely theoretical coverage of regression analysis and its practical application. The book presents regression analysis in the general context of data analysis. Using a teach-by-example format, it contains ten major data sets along with several smaller ones to illustrate the common characteristics of regression data and properties of statistics that are employed in regression analysis. The book covers model misspecification, residual analysis, multicollinearity, and biased regression estimators. It also focuses on data collection, model assumptions, and the interpretation of parameter estimates. Complete with an extensive bibliography, Regression Analysis and Its Application is suitable for statisticians, graduate and upper-level undergraduate students, and research scientists in biometry, business, ecology, economics, education, engineering, mathematics, physical sciences, psychology, and sociology. In addition, data collection agencies in the government and private sector will benefit from the book.

This book deals with the Finite Element Method for the analysis of elastic structures such as beams, plates, shells and solids. The modern approach of Unified Formulation (UF), as proposed by the lead author, deals with the consideration of one-dimensional (beams), two-dimensional (plates and shells) and three-dimensional (solids) elements. Applications are given for structures which are typically employed in civil, mechanical, and aerospace engineering fields. Additional topics include mixed order elements, extension to layered composite structures, and the analysis of multifield problems involving mechanical, electrical and thermal loadings.

The workshop aims to provide a fundamental understanding of the liquefaction process, necessary to the enhancement of liquefaction prediction. The contributions are divided into eight sections, which include: factors affecting liquefaction susceptibility and field studies of liquefaction. This publication contains papers presented at the International Workshop on the Physics and Mechanics of Soil Liquefaction, held in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, September 1998. The workshop focused on the physics of liquefaction in order to improve criteria and methods for predicting the collapse of saturated soils, enhance the triggering analysis, develop measures of mitigation, evaluate the effectiveness of remedial techniques and improve the current design recommendations. There are 8 sections entitled: the mechanism of instability ( 4 papers); effect of soil gradation on liquefaction ( 4 papers); factors affecting liquefaction susceptibility ( 5 papers); soil fabric and its effect on liquefaction (3 papers); methods of characterizing liquefaction potential (5 papers); methods of characterizing post-liquefaction deformation ( 3 papers); centrifuge studies of liquefaction ( 3 papers); field studies of liquefaction (3 papers).
