Hi I am a third year mechanical engineer, and have been reading around the course. I have never heard of the two methods above, and they have never been mentioned on the course - and therefore arent relevent, but I am reading an article that seems to use them. The following is what I have:
It is some form of least squares method for curves, used to estimate a few unknown parameters.
I am trying to find out a and b, although c0 is included in the brackets of S:
The first image, is the first equation, with a, b and c0 although the equation for c0 is shown. The second equation I think is how to solve for a?
Anyway, i have five or 6 values for T0 which apparently using one of the above methods means I can approximate using these equations, the values for a and b?
Anyone know how to do this and what they are talking about?
THanks
