Resolution of disputes involving variations in estimated quantities
resoultionofdisp00will.pdf (5.230Mb)Abstract
This thesis investigated the legal criteria involved in deciding variation in estimated quantity disputes in construction contracting. It was written by an engineering student and is not intended to be a legal reference document. Legal precedent was researched to determine the rules used by the courts to decide these disputes. Each rule was discussed in detail. Examples of cases were provided highlighting how the courts used each rule. The rules used to decide variation in estimated quantities were found to be consistent between jurisdictions

MEASUREMENTS OF ACOUSTIC SCATTERING FROM ROCKY OUTCROPS IN MONTEREY BAY
(Monterey, CA; Naval Postgraduate School, 2019-12);Acoustic measurements were made off Asilomar Beach using a 200kHz split-beam echosounder. The scattering cross section was estimated using the acoustic data collected and the sonar equation. Two methods were used to estimate ... -
Frequency, amplitude, and phase tracking of nonsinusoidal signal in noise with extended Kalman filter
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1991-06);This thesis applies extended Kalman filtering to the problem of estimating frequency, amplitude, and phase of a nonsinusoidal periodic signal contaminated by additive white, Gaussian noise. Parameters will be estimated up ... -
Natural observers for a class of second order bilinear infinite dimensional systems
(IEEE, 2008);We consider a class of second order infinite dimensional bilinear systems with partial state observation. The objective is to design an observer for such a class of infinite dimensional systems that preserves the physical ...
