A longstanding problem in the study of sediment transport in gravel-bed rivers is related to the physical mechanisms governing bed resistance and particle motion. To study this problem, we investigated the motion of coarse spherical glass beads entrained b ...
The one-dimensional fragmentation of a dynamically expanding ring (Mott's problem) is studied numerically to obtain the fragment signatures under different strain rates. An empirical formula is proposed to calculate an average fragment size. Rayleigh distr ...
Capturing the collective coherent spatiotemporal activity from measured data in large ensembles of coupled nonlinear sub-systems has revealed to be a key topic in many areas of applied sciences. Currently, this topic is addressed by considering multivariat ...
Multiuser interference (MUI) statistical models for impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) systems can be an important in providing an accurate estimate of the channel state. As such, it can have a major impact on the overall system performance. In the lite ...
We study the statistical properties of the potential energy landscape of a system of particles interacting via a very short-range square-well potential (of depth - u0) as a function of the range of attraction Δ to provide thermodynamic insights of the Noro ...
In this paper we aim to explore what is the most appropriate number of data samples needed when measuring the temporal correspondence between a chosen set of video and audio cues in a given audio-visual sequence. Presently the optimal model that connects s ...
We propose an alternative means of training a multilayer perceptron for the task of speech activity detection based on a criterion to minimise the error in the estimation of mean and variance statistics for speech cepstrum based features using the Kullback ...
A continuous time process of alternating stochastic growths and deterministic decays is proposed as a simple model for the interannual dynamics of snow water equivalent (SWE) storage and melting. The related stationary properties are studied, and an integr ...
