This article proposes a new kriging that has a rational form. It is shown that the generalized least squares estimator of the mean from rational kriging is much more well behaved than that of ordinary
Percentage errors obtained comparing the experimental data with the computational results obtained with the calibration phase performed on the whole free-expanded stent.
Computer simulations are commonly used to mimic, understand, and predict true physical phenomena in many applications. Calibration aims to adjust the computer model parameters, called calibration para
Complex natural phenomena are increasingly investigated by the use of a complex computer simulator. In order to leverage the advantages of simulators, observational data needs to be incorporated in a
