The spatial distribution of regions that lie above contours of constant height through a self-affine surface is studied as a function of the Hurst exponent H. If the surface represents a landscape, these regions correspond to islands. When the surface repr ...
Understanding firm reactions to regulatory uncertainty is vital for the functioning of a market. Deficient investments, particularly in the power generation sector, could jeopardize the market in the long run. ...
Any finite, separately convex, positively homogeneous function on R2 is convex. This was first established by the first author ["Direct methods in calculus of variations", Springer-Verlag (1989)]. Here we give a new and concise proof of this re ...
Using a series development of the integral solution, a formal backing of the presence of image sources in geometrical acoustics methods has been shown. Furthermore, the existence of "invisible" sources is suggested, especially in the vicinity of obtuse ang ...
Let f be an integrable function on RN, a a point in RN and B a complex number. If the mean value of f on the sphere of centre a and radius r tends to B when r tends to 0, we show that the Fourier integral at a of f is summable to B in Cesàro means of order ...
The NEURON simulation program now allows Python to be used, alone or in combination with NEURON's traditional Hoc interpreter. Adding Python to NEURON has the immediate benefit of making available a very extensive suite of analysis tools written for engine ...
I present a simple and precise relationship between the willingness-to-pay and the willingness-to-accept, or equivalently between the compensating and equivalent variations following an exogenous welfare change. One can be computed given the other as a fun ...
In this note, we provide an analytical approximation to the exponential integral valid for all values of its argument. The approximation is constructed by interpolation between the exponential integral's small and large asymptotes.The interpolation contain ...
A recent paper (Trefry, M.G., 1998. Analytical series expressions for Hanhrsh's M and S functions. Water Resour. Res. 34, 909-913) provided several interesting results concerning the Hantush M function, an integral that arises often in analytical solutions ...
Wavelets and radial basis functions (RBF) are two rather distinct ways of representing signals in terms of shifted basis functions. An essential aspect of RBF, which makes the method applicable to non-uniform grids, is that the basis functions, unlike wave ...
