The stochastic equations of motion for a system of interacting rigid bodies in a solvent are formulated and studied. Three-dimensional bodies of arbitrary shape, with arbitrary couplings between translational and rotational degrees of freedom, as arise in ...
In this paper, we investigate the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the multiple-antenna (MIMO) static half-duplex relay channel. A general expression is derived for the DMT upper bound, which can be achieved by a compress-and-forward protocol at th ...

We analyze the second moment of the ripple size during the LT decoding process and prove that the standard deviation of the ripple size for an LT-code with length k is of the order of root k. Together with a result by Karp et. al (2004) stating that the ex ...

We propose a non-iterative solution to the PnP problem-the estimation of the pose of a calibrated camera from n 3D-to-2D point correspondences-whose computational complexity grows linearly with n. This is in contrast to state-of-the-art methods that are O( ...
We present a parameterization of cirrus cloud formation that computes the ice crystal number and size distribution under the presence of homogeneous and heterogeneous freezing. The parameterization is very simple to apply and is derived from the analytical ...
We present an analytical solution for the induced eddy currents and the corresponding losses generated in the rotor of a slotless permanent magnet (PM) motor. The field excitation is a current layer placed at the stator interior surface. The solution is ba ...
In this communication, original analytical expressions for the quadruple static potential singular integrals on rectangular domains are presented. These integrals can appear when the method of moments is used to solve the mixed potential integral equation ...
Spheropolyhedra are bodies obtained as Minkowski sums of polyhedra with spheres. They are simple, yet flexible models of non-spherical particles for granular media simulated with the Distinct Element Method (DEM). We here give an analytical method for the ...
The porous medium model of Green and Ampt, describing flow in porous media, appeared earlier than the capillary model of Washburn, although both lead to the mathematically identical models. The model of Green and Ampt is related to the Washburn model by an ...
A linear quadratic model predictive controller (MPC) can be written as a parametric quadratic optimization problem whose solution is a piecewise affine (PWA) map from the state to the optimal input. While this `explicit solution' can offer several orders o ...
