Abstract Identifiability guarantees that the mathematical model of a dynamic system is well defined in the sense that it maps unambiguously its parameters to the output trajectories. This paper casts identifiability in a set-membership (SM) framework and relates recently introduced properties, namely, SM-identifiability, μ-SM-identifiability, and ε-SM-identifiability, to the properties of parameter estimation problems. Soundness and ε-consistency are proposed to characterize these problems and the solution returned by the algorithm used to solve them. This paper also contributes by carefully motivating and comparing SM-identifiability, μ-SM-identifiability and ε-SM-identifiability with related properties found in the literature, and by providing a method based on differential algebra to check these properties.

Gauss-jacobi combinatorial algorithm is an alternative approach to traditional iterative numerical methods, which is primary oriented for parameter estimation in nonlinear models. The combinatorial algorithm is often exploited for outlier diagnosis in nonlinear models, where the other parameter estimation methods lose their efficiency. The paper describes comparison of both of gauss-jacobi combinatorial and gauss-markov models executed on parameter estimation process of levelling network for the reason to find the efficiency of combinatorial algorithm in simply linear model.

This note is concerned with structure selection of nonlinear models. By structure selection it is meant the choice of the model basis prior to parameter estimation. It is argued that the effect of the sampling period and the noise on the data may in some cases preclude adequate structure selection. Other issues which are briefly discussed include the selection of the sampling period and the effectiveness of information criteria in indicating the best size of a nonlinear model.

The role played by bearings in determining the dynamic characteristics of rotor-bearing systems is well known. This has led to various attempts to model oil-film force coefficients in terms of linearized stiffness and damping elements. The inadequacy of these theoretical coefficients to predict performance under certain conditions has led some authors to propose the use of nonlinear models. An alternative philosophy, developed in this paper, is to retain a linear model structure and seek to determine optimized coefficient values using modern parameter estimation techniques. It is shown that these estimated linearized parameters predict system performance more accurately than the theoretical linear coefficients; particularly when the rotor is operating near a critical speed.
