... customer specifications. ASPC is implemented through use of control charts, which require a modest understanding of statistics. This paper briefly describes the practical side of developing and interpreting control charts. It also includes a discussion on what is needed to automatically maintain...

... A numerical solution has been developed using a finite difference formulation to simulate the one-dimensional impact wave propagation behavior and subsequent static load test performance. Based on this solution, the importance of residual driving stresses in properly interpreting pile behavior...

... A logical interpretive procedure for the examination of environmental data is described and its use illustrated. The procedure is used to eliminate errors, detect redundancies, detect and validate anomalies, examine water quality data sets, and improve analytical and sampling techniques...
