An explicit unconditionally stable numerical solution of the advection problem in irrotational flow fields
2004
[1] A new methodology for the Eulerian numerical solution of the advection problem is proposed. The methodology is based on the conservation of both the zero- and the first-order spatial moments inside each element of the computational domain and leads to the solution of several small systems of ordinary differential equations. Since the systems are solved sequentially (one element after the other), the method can be classified as explicit. The proposed methodology has the following properties: (1) it guarantees local and global mass conservation, (2) it is unconditionally stable, and (3) it applies second-order approximation of the concentration and its fluxes inside each element. Limitati…
Modal analysis for random response of MDOF systems
1990
The usefulness of the mode-superposition method of multidegrees of freedom systems excited by stochastic vector processes is here presented. The differential equations of moments of every order are written in compact form by means of the Kronecker algebra; then the method for integration of these equations is presented for both classically and non-classically damped systems, showing that the fundamental operator available for evaluating the response in the deterministic analysis is also useful for evaluating the response in the stochastic analysis.
Random Walk and Diffusion
2014
The concept of random walk as introduced by Einstein is introduced. It is shown that a random walk on a lattice can be descrbed by a difference equation, which becomes a partial differential equation (diffusion equation) in the continuum limit. The equation is solved with the help of Fourier and Laplace transformations.
Convergence of Measures
2020
One focus of probability theory is distributions that are the result of an interplay of a large number of random impacts. Often a useful approximation can be obtained by taking a limit of such distributions, for example, a limit where the number of impacts goes to infinity. With the Poisson distribution, we have encountered such a limit distribution that occurs as the number of very rare events when the number of possibilities goes to infinity (see Theorem 3.7). In many cases, it is necessary to rescale the original distributions in order to capture the behavior of the essential fluctuations, e.g., in the central limit theorem. While these theorems work with real random variables, we will a…
Solvability of the divergence equation implies John via Poincaré inequality
2014
Abstract Let Ω ⊂ R 2 be a bounded simply connected domain. We show that, for a fixed (every) p ∈ ( 1 , ∞ ) , the divergence equation div v = f is solvable in W 0 1 , p ( Ω ) 2 for every f ∈ L 0 p ( Ω ) , if and only if Ω is a John domain, if and only if the weighted Poincare inequality ∫ Ω | u ( x ) − u Ω | q d x ≤ C ∫ Ω | ∇ u ( x ) | q dist ( x , ∂ Ω ) q d x holds for some (every) q ∈ [ 1 , ∞ ) . This gives a positive answer to a question raised by Russ (2013) in the case of bounded simply connected domains. In higher dimensions similar results are proved under some additional assumptions on the domain in question.
Riesz-Fischer Maps, Semi-frames and Frames in Rigged Hilbert Spaces
2021
In this note we present a review, some considerations and new results about maps with values in a distribution space and domain in a σ-finite measure space X. Namely, this is a survey about Bessel maps, frames and bases (in particular Riesz and Gel’fand bases) in a distribution space. In this setting, the Riesz-Fischer maps and semi-frames are defined and new results about them are obtained. Some examples in tempered distributions space are examined.
Commutative Partial O*-Algebras
2002
This chapter is devoted to the integrability of commutative partial O*-algebras. Three notions of weak commutativity, commutativity and strong commutativity of an O*-vector space are defined and investigated. In Section 3.1, we analyze the relation between the integrability of weakly commutative O*-vector space M and the commutativity of the von Neumann algebra (M w ′ )′. In Section 3.2, we study the integrable extensions of partial O*-algebras. In Section 3.3, we describe another explicit example, namely, the partial O*-algebra M[S, T] generated by two weakly commuting symmetric operators S and T defined on a common dense domain in a Hilbert space. In particular, we investigate in detail t…
Stochastic linearization for the response of MDOF systems subjected to external and parametric Gaussian excitations
1991
The stochastic linearization approach is examined for the most general case of non zero-mean response of non-linear MDOF systems subjected to parametric and external Gaussian white excitations. It is shown that, for these systems too, stochastic linearization and Gaussian closure are two equivalent approaches if the former is applied to the coefficients of the Ito differential rule. Moreover, an extension of the Atalik-Utku approach to non zero-mean response systems allows to obtain simple formulations for the linearized drift coefficients. Some applications show the good accuracy of the method.
Computing Difficulties for Deriving Poverty Indices from Some Functional Forms of Lorenz Curves
2014
We examine three families of classical one-parameter functional forms for estimating a Lorenz curve: the power form (Pareto, elementary form), the exponential form (Gupta, elementary form) and fractional form (Rohde). For the first time, we systematically study these functions not for their ability to be estimated but on the point of view of the possibility of deriving poverty indices, which implies first determining the headcount ratio (i.e., the percentage of poor). We show that computing difficulties have been largely underestimated. Two forms, the most simple ones, pose no problem: the elementary power and exponential forms. However, the Pareto functional form poses problem with a restr…
Application of Periodic Frames to Image Restoration
2014
In this chapter, we present examples of image restoration using periodic frames. Images to be restored were degraded by blurring, aggravated by random noise and random loss of significant number of pixels. The images are transformed by periodic frames designed in Sects. 17.2 and 17.4, which are extended to the 2D setting in a standard tensor product way. In the presented experiments, performances of different tight and semi-tight frames are compared between each other in identical conditions.
