Determining the coupling between systems remains a topic of active research in the field of complex science. Identifying the proper causal influences in time series can already be very challenging in the trivariate case, particularly when the interactions are non-linear. In this paper, the coupling between three Lorenz systems is investigated with the help of specifically designed artificial neural networks, called time delay neural networks (TDNNs). TDNNs can learn from their previous inputs and are therefore well suited to extract the causal relationship between time series. The performances of the TDNNs tested have always been very positive, showing an excellent capability to identify the correct causal relationships in absence of significant noise. The first tests on the time localization of the mutual influences and the effects of Gaussian noise have also provided very encouraging results. Even if further assessments are necessary, the networks of the proposed architecture have the potential to be a good complement to the other techniques available in the market for the investigation of mutual influences between time series.

Troposphere and the first stratum of the stratosphere are intensely utilized atmosphere layers for the aviation activities. Due to the different performances, capabilities, designs, and equipment of the aerial vehicles, meteorological weather events that occur in the troposphere affect these vehicles at different levels during their aeronautical activities. Although simple aircrafts are more sensitive to the effects of meteorological events, they are especially preferred by flight training organizations (FTOs) in pilotage training when they are considered in terms of maintenance and equipment costs. In cases where inexperienced pilot candidates and simple aircrafts that are more vulnerable to weather events come together, analysis and prediction of meteorological parameters becomes more important in terms of preventing accidents and reducing risks, as well as proper planning for flight and maintenance. The purposes of this study are, first, to derive flight availability time-series for two different types of aircraft according to visual flight rules by using Meteorological Terminal Air Report (METAR), and then to establish and evaluate a prediction model by using Time-Delay Neural Networks (TDNNs).

The main goal of this research is to develop and demonstrate a general, efficient, mathematically and theoretically based methodology to model nonlinear forced vibrating mechanical systems from time series measurements. A system identification modeling methodology for forced dynamical systems is presented based on dynamic system theory and nonlinear time series analysis that employs phase space reconstruction (delay vector embedding) for modeling of dynamical systems from time series data using time-delay neural networks (TDNN). The first part of this work details the modeling methodology including background on dynamic systems, phase space reconstruction, and neural networks. In the second part of this work the methodology is evaluated based on its ability to model selected analytical lumped parameter forced vibrating dynamic systems including an example of a linear system predicting lumped mass displacement using a displacement forcing. function The work discusses the application to nonlinear systems, multi degree-of-freedom systems, and multi-input systems. The methodology is further evaluated on its ability to model an analytical passenger rail vehicle predicting vertical wheel/rail force using vertical rail profile as input. Studying the neural modeling methodology using an analytical systems shows the clearest observations from results which provide prospective users of this tool an understanding of the expectations and limitations of the modeling methodology.

The work discusses the application to nonlinear systems, multiple degree of freedom systems, and multiple input systems. The methodology is further evaluated on its ability to model an analytical passenger rail car predicting vertical wheel∕rail force using a measured vertical rail profile as the input function. Studying the neural modeling methodology using analytical systems shows the clearest observations from results, providing prospective users of this tool an understanding of the expectations and limitations of the modeling methodology.
