The article “Mechanistic-Empirical Design of Bituminous Roads: An Indian Perspective” (A. Das and B. Pandey, Journal of Transportation Engineering, 1999:463–471) presents an equation of the form y = a(1/x1)b(1/x2)c for predicting the number of repetitions for laboratory fatigue failure (y) in terms of the tensile strain at the bottom of the bituminous beam (x1) and the resilient modulus (x2). Transform this equation into a linear model, and express the linear model coefficients in terms of a, b, and c.
Let yt = φyt−1 + et with et ∼ WN(0,σ2) and |φ| < 1. Consider the over-differenced process wt = (1 − L)yt.(i) What is the model followed by wt? (ii) Is wt invertible? (iii) Obtain V [wt] and compare its magnitude with V [yt] and hence comment on the impact of over-differencing on the variance of a stationary process.
Solve   An article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering (1999, Vol. 125, pp.59-75) describes a study of the thermal inertia properties of autoclaved aerated concrete used as a building material. Five samples of the material were tested in a structure, and the average interior temperatures (°C) reported were as follows: 23.01, 22.22, 22.04, 22.62, and 22.59. Test that the average interior temperature is equal to 22.5°C using alpha (a) = 0.05.   1.)This problem is a test on what population parameter? a.Variance/ Standard Deviation b.Mean c.Population Proportion d.None of the above   2.)What is the null and alternative 3 points hypothesis? a.Ho / (theta = 22.5) , Ha: (0 # 22.5) b.Ho / (theta > 22.5) , Ha: (0 # 22.5) c.Ho / (theta < 22.5) , Ha: (theta >= 22.5) d.None of the above   3.)What are the Significance level 3 points and type of test? alpha = 0.05 two-tailed alpha = 0.95 two-tailed alpha = 0.95 one-tailed None of the above   4.)What standardized test statistic will…
