Book Description
A parametric study was conducted to determine the effect of using various nonlinear elastic-plastic constitutive model formulations to fit a given set of soil property data in calculating high-explosive (HE), airblast-induced, superseismic ground shock. The code used was a modified version of the 2D axisymmetric LAYER code developed by the Paul Weidlinger firm. A constant shear modulus model, a constant Poisson's ratio model, and a hybrid-type model were employed. Two series of calculations were performed. In the first, the effect of an HE-type airblast on a deep highly compressible layer of soil was investigated for the three different models. In the second series, a two-layer soil profile comprising a shallow layer of highly compressible soil over a deep highly incompressible material was used. The study showed that the radial stress-, velocity-, and displacement-time histories at shallow depths were strongly influenced by the type of constitutive model used to represent the soils' mechanical behavior. Relatively large differences in maximum and final radial displacement were observed for the different models. (Author).

Statistical Methods for QTL Mapping
Author: Zehua Chen
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0415669863
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 944
Book Description
While numerous advanced statistical approaches have recently been developed for quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping, the methods are scattered throughout the literature. Statistical Methods for QTL Mapping brings together many recent statistical techniques that address the data complexity of QTL mapping. After introducing basic genetics topics and statistical principles, the author discusses the principles of quantitative genetics, general statistical issues of QTL mapping, commonly used one-dimensional QTL mapping approaches, and multiple interval mapping methods. He then explains how to use a feature selection approach to tackle a QTL mapping problem with dense markers. The book also provides comprehensive coverage of Bayesian models and MCMC algorithms and describes methods for multi-trait QTL mapping and eQTL mapping, including meta-trait methods and multivariate sequential procedures. This book emphasizes the modern statistical methodology for QTL mapping as well as the statistical issues that arise during this process. It gives the necessary biological background for statisticians without training in genetics and, likewise, covers statistical thinking and principles for geneticists. Written primarily for geneticists and statisticians specializing in QTL mapping, the book can also be used as a supplement in graduate courses or for self-study by PhD students working on QTL mapping projects.
