Several imputation schemes and estimators have been proposed by different authors in sample survey. However, these estimators utilized quantitative information of auxiliary characters. In this study, some imputation methods were studied using qualitative information of auxiliary characters and two new imputation schemes using auxiliary attribute have been suggested. The mean squared errors of the proposed estimators were derived up to first order approximation using Taylor series approach. Numerical illustrations with two populations were conducted and the results revealed that the proposed estimator is more efficient.

Robust Measures

Human-assisted surveys, such as medical and social science surveys, are frequently plagued by non-response or missing observations. Several authors have devised different imputation algorithms to account for missing observations during analyses. Nonetheless, several of these imputation schemes' estimators are based on known auxiliary variable parameters that can be influenced by outliers. In this paper, we suggested new classes of exponential-ratio-type imputation method that uses parameters that are robust against outliers. Using the Taylor series expansion technique, the MSE of the class of estimators presented was derived up to first order approximation. Conditions were also specified for which the new estimators were more efficient than the other estimators studied in the study. The results of numerical examples through simulations revealed that the suggested class of estimators is more efficient.

<abstract><p>This article deals with estimation of finite population mean using the auxiliary proportion under simple and two phase sampling scheme utilizing two auxiliary variables. Mathematical expressions for the mean squared errors of the proposed estimators are derived under first order of approximation. We compare the proposed class of estimators "theoretically and numerically" with the usual mean estimator of Naik and Gupta <sup>[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b1">1</xref>]</sup>. The theoretical as well as numerical findings support the superiority of our proposed class of estimator as compared to estimators available in literature.</p></abstract>

Abstract The approximate analytical solution for the propagation of gas ionizing cylindrical blast (shock) wave in a rotational axisymmetric non-ideal gas with azimuthal or axial magnetic field is investigated. The axial and azimuthal components of fluid velocity are taken into consideration and these flow variables, magnetic field in the ambient medium are assumed to be varying according to the power laws with distance from the axis of symmetry. The shock is supposed to be strong one for the ratio C 0 V s 2 ${\left(\frac{{C}_{0}}{{V}_{s}}\right)}^{2}$ to be a negligible small quantity, where C 0 is the sound velocity in undisturbed fluid and V S is the shock velocity. In the undisturbed medium the density is assumed to be constant to obtain the similarity solution. The flow variables in power series of C 0 V s 2 ${\left(\frac{{C}_{0}}{{V}_{s}}\right)}^{2}$ are expanded to obtain the approximate analytical solutions. The first order and second order approximations to the solutions are discussed with the help of power series expansion. For the first order approximation the analytical solutions are derived. In the flow-field region behind the blast wave the distribution of the flow variables in the case of first order approximation is shown in graphs. It is observed that in the flow field region the quantity J 0 increases with an increase in the value of gas non-idealness parameter or Alfven-Mach number or rotational parameter. Hence, the non-idealness of the gas and the presence of rotation or magnetic field have decaying effect on shock wave.

First Order Approximation

First-order approximation of the number-projected (NP) SO(2N) Tamm-Dancoff (TD) equation is developed to describe ground and excited states of superconducting fermion systems. We start from an NP Hartree-Bogoliubov (HB) wave function. The NP SO(2N) TD expansion is generated by quasi-particle pair excitations from the degenerate geminals in the number-projected HB wave function. The Schrödinger equation is cast into the NP SO(2N) TD equation by the variation principle. We approximate it up to first order. This approximate equation is reduced to a simpler form by the Schur function of group characters which has a close connection with the soliton theory on the group manifold.

First Order Approximation

Abstract Dynamical systems with two degrees-of-freedom, with quadratic nonlinearities and parametric excitations are studied in this analysis. The 1:2 superharmonic internal resonance case is analyzed. The method of harmonic balance is used to obtain a set of four first-order amplitude equations that govern the dynamics of the first-order approximation of the response. An analytical technique, based on Melnikov’s method is used to predict the parameter range for which chaotic dynamics exist in the undamped averaged system. Numerical studies show that chaotic responses are quite common in these quadratic systems and chaotic responses occur even in presence of damping.

Exact Analytical Method

The iteratively reweighted least-squares (IRLS) technique has been widely employed in geodetic and geophysical literature. The reliability measures are important diagnostic tools for inferring the strength of the model validation. An exact analytical method is adopted to obtain insights on how much iterative reweighting can affect the quality indicators. Theoretical analyses and numerical results show that, when the downweighting procedure is performed, (1) the precision, all kinds of dilution of precision (DOP) metrics and the minimal detectable bias (MDB) will become larger; (2) the variations of the bias-to-noise ratio (BNR) are involved, and (3) all these results coincide with those obtained by the first-order approximation method.
