On the numerical simulation of a confined cavitating tip leakage vortex under geometrical and operational uncertainties

The effects of operational and geometrical uncertainties on Tip Leakage Vortex (TLV) characteristics are investigated in the current research. Geometrical uncertainties are comprised of manufacturing tolerances or gradual geometry degradation over the time ...

Fast Bayesian estimation of spatial count data models

Prateek Bansal, Rico Krüger

Spatial count data models are used to explain and predict the frequency of phenomena such as traffic accidents in geographically distinct entities such as census tracts or road segments. These models are typically estimated using Bayesian Markov chain Mont ...

Robust Generalization despite Distribution Shift via Minimum Discriminating Information

Daniel Kuhn, Tobias Sutter, Andreas Krause

Training models that perform well under distribution shifts is a central challenge in machine learning. In this paper, we introduce a modeling framework where, in addition to training data, we have partial structural knowledge of the shifted test distribut ...

Strong convergence of multivariate maxima

Simone Padoan, Stefano Rizzelli

It is well known and readily seen that the maximum of n independent and uniformly on [0, 1] distributed random variables, suitably standardised, converges in total variation distance, as n increases, to the standard negative exponential distribution. We ex ...

Experimental investigation of collagen waviness and orientation in the arterial adventitia using confocal laser scanning microscopy

Michaël Unser, Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Daniel Sage, Alessandra Griffa, Aristotelis Agianniotis, Jelle Tymen Christiaan Schrauwen

Mechanical properties of the adventitia are largely determined by the organization of collagen fibers. Measurements on the waviness and orientation of collagen, particularly at the zero-stress state, are necessary to relate the structural organization of c ...

Biomechanics of Vascular Wall : the Role of Structural Organization of Elastin and Collagen

Rana Saitta-Rezakhaniha

This thesis contributes to the field of biomechanics of vascular wall. The focus is particularly on the microstructure of vascular elastin and collagen constituents and their contribution to the macroscopic mechanical behavior of the wall. The analysis is ...

Variance Stabilizing the Difference of Two Binomial Proportions

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

The article studies estimation of Delta = p(1) - p(2), the difference of two proportions p(1) and p(2), based on two independent Binomial experiments of size n(1) and n(2). The usual estimator, the difference between the two sample proportions, is variance ...

Universal statistical properties of drift-interchange turbulence in TORPEX plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Benoît Labit, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Gennady Plyushchev

A unique parabolic relation is observed to link skewness and kurtosis of around ten thousand density fluctuation signals, measured over the whole cross section of a toroidal magnetized plasma for a broad range of experimental conditions. All the probabilit ...

Statistical properties of electrostatic turbulence in toroidal magnetized plasmas

Ambrogio Fasoli, Ivo Furno, Paolo Ricci, Benoît Labit, Christian Gabriel Theiler, Jan Horacek, Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Gennady Plyushchev, Davoud Iraji

A unique parabolic relation is observed to link skewness and kurtosis of density fluctuation signals, measured over the whole cross-section of the simple toroidal device TORPEX for a broad range of experimental conditions. This relationship is also valid f ...
