A technique to measure in situ the behavior of the magnetic susceptibility vs. temperature, chi(T), for a cable-in-conduit-conductor (CICC) in the SULTAN test facility has been developed. The same kind of measurements are performed for the corresponding fr ...
We investigate lower and upper bounds for the blowup times of a system of semilinear SPDEs. Under certain conditions on the system parameters, we obtain explicit solutions of a related system of random PDEs, which allows us to use a formula due to Yor to o ...
We study the steady-state probability distribution of diffusion and consensus strategies that employ constant step-sizes to enable continuous adaptation and learning. We show that, in the small step-size regime, the estimation error at each agent approache ...
We study theoretically and numerically how hard frictionless particles in random packings can rearrange. We demonstrate the existence of two distinct unstable non-linear modes of rearrangement, both associated with the opening and the closing of contacts. ...
Complex specular surfaces under sharp point lighting show a fascinating glinty appearance, but rendering it is an unsolved problem. Using Monte Carlo pixel sampling for this purpose is impractical: the energy is concentrated in tiny highlights that take up ...
The modeling of multivariate extremes has received increasing recent attention because of its importance in risk assessment. In classical statistics of extremes, the joint distribution of two or more extremes has a nonparametric form, subject to moment con ...
Consider a random regular graph with degree d and of size n. Assign to each edge an independent and identically distributed exponential random variable with mean one. In this paper we establish a precise asymptotic expression for the maximum number of edge ...
The concentrations of 11 crustal and anthropogenic trace metals (Li, Al, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb) were measured from 2006 to 2008 in the atmospheric aerosol at a northwestern Mediterranean coast (station of Cap Ferrat, situated on the southeaster ...
Global warming is expected to intensify the hydrologic cycle. Documenting whether significant changes in the extreme precipitation regimes have already happened is consequently one of the challenging topics in climatic research. The high natural variabilit ...
The statistical analysis of the length distribution of catalytic chemical vapour deposition synthesized multi-walled carbon nanotubes cut by planetary ball milling is reported. The nanotube lengths follow a log-normal distribution in a broad range of grind ...
