Double-moment normalization of the drop size distribution (DSD) summarizes the DSD in a compact way, using two of its statistical moments and a "generic'' double-moment normalized DSD function. Results are presented of an investigation into the invariance ...
In a recent article [1] we surveyed advances related to adaptation, learning, and optimization over synchronous networks. Various distributed strategies were discussed that enable a collection of networked agents to interact locally in response to streamin ...
We consider design of sparse controllers for a stochastic linear system with infinite horizon quadratic objective. We formulate the non-sparse optimal solution through a semidefinite program for the second order moments of the states and inputs. Given that ...
We consider one-dimensional bedforms (e.g., anti-dunes, dunes, ripples), and investigate their stability and stochastic dynamics by combining numerical stochastic simulations and linear stability analysis. We focus on anti-dune development in supercritical ...
We consider the stochastic wave equation on the real line driven by space time white noise and with irregular initial data. We give bounds on higher moments and, for the hyperbolic Anderson model, explicit formulas for second moments. These bounds imply we ...
A three-dimensional turbulence simulation of the SOL and edge regions of a toroidally limited tokamak is carried out. The simulation couples self-consistently the drift-reduced two-fluid Braginskii equations to a kinetic equation for neutral atoms. A diagn ...
In this paper, we study the Besov regularity of a general d-dimensional Lévy white noise. More precisely, we describe new sample paths properties of a given noise in terms of weighted Besov spaces. In particular, we characterize the smoothness and integrab ...
Mass determinations from gravitational lensing shear and the higher order estimator flexion are both subject to the mass-sheet degeneracy. Mass sheet degeneracy refers to a transformation that leaves the reduced shear and flexion invariant. In general, thi ...
A new technique for estimating the raindrop size distribution (DSD) from polarimetric radar data is proposed. Two statistical moments of the DSD are estimated from polarimetric variables, and the DSD is reconstructed using a double-moment normalisation. Th ...
The study of turbulence in geophysical flows benefits from the growing amount of data available via modern sensor technologies. It is now possible to obtain detailed statistical characterisation of turbulence from field observations. By ``statistical,'' we ...
