Unlike the available methods based on the ordinary least square, the proposed method clearly discriminates the interaction channels that have significant contribution to the interconnected subsystem from the ones which do not by reducing the model error that arises due to the process inputs correlation. The efficacy of the proposed method is illustrated through a case study. © 2014 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland. date: 2014 publisher: Trans Tech Publications Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84914172371&doi=10.4028%2fwww.scientific.net%2fAMM.625.435&partnerID=40&md5=1b84581e90eb294b8732b6379ad97614 id_number: 10.4028/www.scientific.net/AMM.625.435 full_text_status: none publication: Applied Mechanics and Materials volume: 625 pagerange: 435-438 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9783038351818 issn: 16609336 citation: Rahim, M. and Ramasamy, M. and Tufa, L.D. and Faisal, A.
