one_tm_sun: Frequentist inference for the one thermal mass model (1TM)...

In paulnorthrop/walls: Statistical Inference for the Thermophysical Properties of Walls from In-Situ Surveys

Description

Brief description

Usage

one_tm_sun(data, air = TRUE, init = NULL, tau = 1/12,
  hetero = TRUE, ep = 1e-06, nls_control = NULL,
  gnls_control = NULL, use_gnls = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

data	A dataset in the format of either cwall_east or cwall_north.
air	A logical scalar. Should we use air (TRUE) or surface (FALSE) temperatures?
init	A numeric vector of length 4. Optional initial estimates of the parameters R1, R2, R3 and C1 of the 1TM + Qsun.
tau	A numeric scalar. Time interval between successive measurements, in hours.
ep	A numeric scalar. Lower bound imposed on the (positive) parameters R1, R2 and C1. Passed to the lower argument of nls.
nls_control	An optional list of control settings to be passed to nls.
gnls_control	An optional list of control settings to be passed to gnls.
use_gnls	A logical scalar. In the hetero = FALSE) case should we use gnls to fit the model (use_gnls == TRUE) or nls (use_gnls == FALSE)? This is provided as a means to check that these two functions give equivalent results.
...	Further arguments to be pased to nls.

Examples

### cwall_east --------

# Constant error variance
fit3 <- one_tm_sun(data = cwall_east, hetero = FALSE)
fit3
logLik(fit3)
plot(fit3, form = resid(., type = "p") ~ fitted(.) | in_out)

# Different error variances for Qin and Qout
fit4 <- one_tm_sun(data = cwall_east)
fit4
plot(fit4, form = resid(., type = "p") ~ fitted(.) | in_out)
logLik(fit4)
