Fretting is a wear process that results from tangential oscillatory movements of small amplitude in machine parts. The article 鈥淕rease Effect on Fretting Wear of Mild Steel鈥 (Industrial Lubrication and Tribology, 2008: 67鈥78) included the following data on volume wear (1024 mm3 ) for base oils having four different viscosities.

Viscosity Wear
20.4 58.8 30.8 27.3 29.9 17.7 76.5
30.2 44.5 47.1 48.7 41.6 32.8 18.3
89.4 73.3 57.1 66.0 93.8 133.2 81.1
252.6 30.6 24.2 16.6 38.9 28.7 23.6

a. The sample coefficient of variation 100s/x-bar assesses the extent of variability relative to the mean (specifically, the standard deviation as a percentage of the mean). Calculate the coefficient of variation for the
sample at each viscosity. Then compare the results and comment.
b. Construct a comparative boxplot of the data and comment on interesting features.

Short Answer

Expert verified

a.

0.5601 or 56.01%

0.2966 or 29.66%

0.3230 or 32.30%

0.2786 or 27.86%

Relative variability of viscosity level (20.4) is highest among all the four samples while the relative variability of viscosity level (252.6) is lowest as compared with other samples.

b.

Two samples, 20.4 and 252.6, are positive skewed in the comparison boxplot.

The viscosity level of 89.4 is, on the other hand, negative skewed.

In all samples, there are no outliers. The volume wears corresponding to oil viscosity 252.6 have the least variation, as can be shown. The viscosity boxplot is almost symmetric (252.6).

Step by step solution

01

Given information

The data are provided that consists of 24 observations on volume wear for base oils having 4 different viscosities.

02

Compute sample means for each viscosity

a.

The sample mean is computed using the formula,

\(\bar x = \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{x_i}} }}{n}\)

Let \({\bar x_{vis\cos ity\left( {20.4} \right)}}\),\({\bar x_{vis\cos ity\left( {30.2} \right)}}\),\({\bar x_{vis\cos ity\left( {89.4} \right)}}\) and \({\bar x_{vis\cos ity\left( {252.6} \right)}}\) are the four sample means. Each sample size is\(n = 6\). Each sample mean can be calculated as,

\(\begin{aligned}{{\bar x}_{vis\cos ity\left( {20.4} \right)}} &= \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{x_i}} }}{6}\\ &= \frac{{\left( {58.8 + 30.8 + 27.3 + 29.9 + 17.7 + 76.5} \right)}}{6}\\ &= \frac{{241}}{6}\\ &= 40.1667\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{{\bar x}_{vis\cos ity\left( {30.2} \right)}} &= \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{x_i}} }}{6}\\ &= \frac{{\left( {44.5 + 47.1 + 48.7 + 41.6 + 32.8 + 18.3} \right)}}{6}\\ &= \frac{{233}}{6}\\ &= 38.8333\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{{\bar x}_{vis\cos ity\left( {89.4} \right)}} &= \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{x_i}} }}{6}\\ &= \frac{{\left( {73.3 + 57.1 + 66 + 93.8 + 133.2 + 81.1} \right)}}{6}\\ &= \frac{{504.5}}{6}\\ &= 84.0833\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{{\bar x}_{vis\cos ity\left( {252.6} \right)}} &= \frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{x_i}} }}{6}\\ &= \frac{{\left( {30.6 + 24.2 + 16.6 + 38.9 + 28.7 + 23.6} \right)}}{6}\\ &= \frac{{162.6}}{6}\\ &= 27.1\end{aligned}\)

03

Compute sample standard deviations for each viscosity

The sample standard deviation is computed using the formula,

\(s = \sqrt {\frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} }}{{n - 1}}} \)

Let \({s_{vis\cos ity\left( {20.4} \right)}}\),\({s_{vis\cos ity\left( {30.2} \right)}}\),\({s_{vis\cos ity\left( {89.4} \right)}}\) and \({s_{vis\cos ity\left( {252.6} \right)}}\) are the four sample means. Each sample size is \(n = 6\). Each sample standard deviation can be calculated as,

\(\begin{aligned}{s_{vis\cos ity\left( {20.4} \right)}} &= \sqrt {\frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} }}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= \sqrt {\frac{{{{\left( {58.8 - 40.1667} \right)}^2} + \ldots + {{\left( {76.5 - 40.1667} \right)}^2}}}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= 22.4978\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{s_{vis\cos ity\left( {30.2} \right)}} &= \sqrt {\frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} }}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= \sqrt {\frac{{{{\left( {44.5 - 38.8333} \right)}^2} + \ldots + {{\left( {18.3 - 38.8333} \right)}^2}}}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= 11.5193\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{s_{vis\cos ity\left( {89.4} \right)}} &= \sqrt {\frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} }}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= \sqrt {\frac{{{{\left( {73.3 - 84.0833} \right)}^2} + \ldots + {{\left( {81.1 - 84.0833} \right)}^2}}}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= 27.1557\end{aligned}\)

\(\begin{aligned}{s_{vis\cos ity\left( {252.6} \right)}} &= \sqrt {\frac{{\sum\limits_{i = 1}^6 {{{\left( {{x_i} - \bar x} \right)}^2}} }}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= \sqrt {\frac{{{{\left( {30.6 - 27.1} \right)}^2} + \ldots + {{\left( {23.6 - 27.1} \right)}^2}}}{{6 - 1}}} \\ &= 7.5493\end{aligned}\)

Construct a comparative box plot for the given data

Following are the steps to make comparative boxplot by hand:

  1. Draw a plot line of range 0 to 240.
  2. Draw three horizontal lines that consists of first quartile, second quartile and third quartile and make two vertical lines to make it in rectangular form like a box for Viscosity level (20.4).
  3. Do the Step 2 again for Viscosity level (30.2), Viscosity level (89.4) and Viscosity level (252.6).
  4. Draw whiskers on both sides of four boxplots and set the minimum and maximum value with respect to the obtained lower fence and upper fence.

From the comparative boxplot, Two samples are positively skewed i.e. 20.4 and 252.6. On the other hand, the viscosity level 89.4 is negative skewed. There are no outliers exist in all samples. It is observe that the volume wears corresponding to oil viscosity 252.6 have the smallest variability. The boxplot is almost symmetric for the viscosity (252.6).

A trial has just resulted in a hung jury because eight members of the jury were in favour of a guilty verdict and the other four were for acquittal. If the jurors leave the jury room in random order and each of the first four leaving the room is accosted by a reporter in quest of an interview, what is the\({\rm{pmf}}\)of\({\rm{X = }}\)the number of jurors favouring acquittal among those interviewed? How many of those favouring acquittal do you expect to be interviewed?

The sample data \({x_1},{x_2}, \ldots ,{x_n}\) sometimes represents a time series, where \({x_t} = {\rm{the observed value of a response variable x at time t}}\). Often the observed series shows a great deal of random variation, which makes it difficult to study longer-term behavior. In such situations, it is desirable to produce a smoothed version of the series. One technique for doing so involves exponential smoothing. The value of a smoothing constant \(\alpha \) is chosen \(\left( {0 < \alpha < 1} \right)\).Then with \({{\bf{x}}_t} = {\bf{smoothed}}{\rm{ }}{\bf{value}}{\rm{ }}{\bf{at}}{\rm{ }}{\bf{time}}{\rm{ }}{\bf{t}}\), we set \({\bar x_1} = {x_1}\), and for \(t = 2,{\rm{ }}3,...,n,\)\({x_t} = a{x_t} + \left( {1 - \alpha } \right){\bar x_{t - 1}}\).

a. Consider the following time series in which \({x_t} = {\rm{temperature}}\left( {8F} \right)\)of effluent at a sewage treatment plant on dayt:

47, 54, 53, 50, 46, 46, 47, 50, 51, 50, 46, 52, 50, 50

Plot each \({x_t}\)against t on a two-dimensional coordinate system (a time-series plot). Does there appear to be any pattern?

b. Calculate the \({\bar x_t}s\) using\(\;\alpha = 0.1\). Repeat using \(\;\alpha = 0.5\). Which value of a gives a smoother \({x_t}\)series?

c. Substitute \({x_{t - 1}} = a{x_{t - 1}} + \left( {1 - \alpha } \right){\bar x_{t - 2}}\)on the right-hand side of the expression for \({x_t}\), then substitute \({\bar x_{t - 2}}\)in terms of \({x_{t - 2}}\) and \({\bar x_{t - 3}}\), and so on. On how many of the values \({x_t},{x_{t - 1}}{\rm{,}} \ldots ,{x_1}\)does \({\bar x_t}\)depend? What happens to the coefficient on \({x_{t - k}}\) ask increases?

d. Refer to part (c). If t is large, how sensitive is x t to the initialization \({\bar x_1} = {x_1}\)? Explain.(Note: A relevant reference is the article 鈥淪imple Statistics for Interpreting Environmental Data,鈥漌ater Pollution Control Fed. J., 1981: 167鈥175.)

e. Obtain the density function\({\rm{f(x)}}\).

f. Calculate\({\rm{E(X)}}\).

g. Calculate \({\rm{V(X)}}\)and\({{\rm{\sigma }}_{\rm{X}}}\).

h. If the borrower is charged an amount \({\rm{h(X) = }}{{\rm{X}}^{\rm{2}}}\) when checkout duration is\({\rm{X}}\), compute the expected charge\({\rm{E(h(X))}}\).

Let \({\rm{X}}\) denote the amount of space occupied by an article placed in a \({\rm{1 - f}}{{\rm{t}}^{\rm{3}}}\) packing container. The pdf of \({\rm{X}}\) is

\({\rm{f(x) = }}\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{{\rm{90}}{{\rm{x}}^{\rm{8}}}{\rm{(1 - x)}}}&{{\rm{0 < x < 1}}}\\{\rm{0}}&{{\rm{ otherwise }}}\end{array}} \right.\)

Using the cdf from (a), what is \({\rm{P(}}{\rm{.25 < X}} \le {\rm{.5)}}\)? What is \({\rm{P(}}{\rm{.25}} \le {\rm{X}} \le {\rm{.5)}}\)? d. What is the \({\rm{75th}}\) percentile of the distribution? e. Compute \({\rm{E(X)}}\) and \({{\rm{\sigma }}_{\rm{X}}}\). f. What is the probability that \({\rm{X}}\) is more than \({\rm{1}}\) standard deviation from its mean value?

Aortic stenosis refers to a narrowing of the aortic valve in the heart. The article 鈥淐orrelation Analysis of Stenotic Aortic Valve Flow Patterns Using PhaseContrast MRI鈥 (Annals of Biomed. Engr., 2005: 878鈥887) gave the following data on aortic root diameter (cm) and gender for a sample of patients having various degrees of aortic stenosis:

M: 3.7 3.4 3.7 4.0 3.9 3.8 3.4 3.6 3.1 4.0 3.4 3.8 3.5
F: 3.8 2.6 3.2 3.0 4.3 3.5 3.1 3.1 3.2 3.0

  1. Compare and contrast the diameter observations for
    the two genders.
  2. Calculate a 10% trimmed mean for each of the two
    samples, and compare to other measures of center
    (for the male sample, the interpolation method men-
    tioned in Section 1.3 must be used).
