Two kinds of estimation variance functions for estimating a local average (LA) of a stationary (homogeneous) random field (RF) are derived. One is local estimation (LE) and the other is general estimation (GE) of LA. The former is for estimating LA at the observation location, and the latter is for obtaining LA at any arbitrary location within the RF. The geotechnical implications of these two estimations are that LE is for estimating LA of geotechnical parameters at the spot where the investigations are made, whereas GE is for estimating LA at any arbitrary location within the same layer. The behavior of the two estimation variance functions differs greatly, controlled by the number of observations (i.e. sample size) and the normalized layer thickness (layer thickness divided by autocorrelation distance of RF). Based on the derived estimation variance functions, methods for determining reliable characteristic values of geotechnical parameters and necessary sample size are proposed. The methods are based on the same framework as that of the traditional statistical theory, i.e. confidence interval of estimated parameters. However, the assumption of independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.) samples in the traditional statistical theory is replaced by the assumption of correlated samples from a stationary RF. The results obtained from the proposed methods for LE and GE differ from each other as well as from the traditional results, which has significant implications for geotechnical parameter estimation in geotechnical engineering practice. |
