APPLICATION OF TOTAL LEAST SQUARES TO A LINEAR SURVEYING NETWORK
Journal Title: Journal of Science And Arts - Year 2012, Vol 21, Issue 4
Abstract
Despite the classical least squares being the de-facto technique for adjusting surveying networks, this research explores the application of total least squares to solving a linear surveying network problem. The linear surveying network used for the experiment is a three-loop levelling network. The augmented matrix of the design matrix and observation vector is first computed. Thereafter the singular value decomposition of the augmented matrix of the design matrix and the vector of unknown parameters are obtained. The residuals from the total least squares when compared with those from the classical least squares, are relatively better.

THE UV-VIS CHARACTERIZATION OF AZO DYE BY IRRADIATION
The stereochimical factor, which play a significant role about colour azo dyes, lead at Z(sin)-E(anti) isomerism. The E(anti) form are much more stable at temperature rooms, while the Z(sin)-isomer can be generated only...
MODELING THE TEMPERATURE DEPENDENCE OF DYNAMIC VISCOSITY FOR SAE 10W OIL NO ADDITIVE
The dynamic viscosity for mineral oil SAE 10W no additive were determined at temperatures from 313 K to 373 K. Some empirical relations that describe the temperature dependence of dynamic viscosity were fitted to the exp...

CONDITIONAL CAUCHY EQUATIONS OF T[sub]1,2[/sub] - TYPE ON [i]n[/i] - GROUPS
J. Dhombres [2] made a classification of conditional Cauchy equations on groups. In [9] we extended the results obtained by J. Dhombres and R. Ger [3], [4] on conditional Cauchy equations of [i]T[/i][sub]1,1[/sub]-type (...
