The shape of a rotating electric solar wind sail under the centrifugal force and solar wind dynamic pressure is modeled to address the sail attitude maintenance and thrust vectoring. The sail rig assumes centrifugally stretched main tethers that exte...
We discuss the flow past a flat heterogeneous solid surface decorated by slipping stripes. The spatially varying slip length, $b(y)$, is assumed to be small compared to the scale of the heterogeneities, $L$, but finite. For such "weakly" slipping sur...
Apr 1, 2018 · Source: (Harvard Statistics 110: see #17, p. 29 of pdf). A couple decides to keep having children until they have at least one boy and at least one girl, and then stop. Assume they never …
Aug 5, 2023 · A couple decides to keep having children until they have the same number of boys and girls, and then stop. Assume they never have twins, that the "trials" are independent with probability …
Course descriptions include a difficulty level and any recommended background knowledge. While advanced courses may assume some programming knowledge, there are many beginner-friendly …
Consider a normal Ornstein--Uhlenbeck semigroup in $\Bbb{R}^n$, whose covariance is given by a positive definite matrix. The drift matrix is assumed to have eigenvalues only in the left half-plane. We prove that the associated maximal operator is of...
Consider an exact couple in a semiabelian category in the sense of Palamodov, i.e., in an additive category in which every morphism has a kernel as well as a cokernel and the induced morphism between coimage and image is always monic and epic. Assume...
Just came back from a week in Helsinki - I had a two day work conference but decided to stay an extra five days to explore the city. I've been to Copenhagen, Oslo, and Stockholm and assumed it was jus...
Hi All. In this post I’m going to be describing how to create function procedures to create your own functions in VBA.   **Note 1**: This is an intermediate level VBA post. I assume that ...
Feb 19, 2026 · Professions threatened by technology have proven surprisingly resilient throughout history. That is worth remembering as AI assumes more human tasks.
Multi-Agent Path Finding (MAPF) algorithms, including those for car-like robots and grid-based scenarios, face significant computational challenges due to expensive heuristic calculations. Traditional heuristic caching assumes that the heuristic func...
We present two models of perpetrators' decision-making in extracting resources from a protected area. It is assumed that the authorities conduct surveillance to counter the extraction activities, and that perpetrators choose their post-extraction pat...
Feb 25, 2016 · Your question is about the meaning of the idiom, so I'll make this a comment rather than an answer, but to explain the odd verb tense: that construction means something like, "I assume that …
I got a notice via email a while back that the Apartment complex where I live in Denver was going to be installing "SmartHome" devices in my apartment. I didn't respond because I assumed I would have ...
Conventional learning with expert advice methods assumes a learner is always receiving the outcome (e.g., class labels) of every incoming training instance at the end of each trial. In real applications, acquiring the outcome from oracle can be costl...
Hilbert space structure is assumed as a valid geometric description for neurodynamics, i.e., for applying any kind of quantum formalism in brain dynamics. The orientation selectivity of the neurons is used as a justification to construct a type of...
I vaguely remember hearing of some group having an expansionist vision decades ago, and it died off, I assume because it’s an obviously terrible idea. I have not heard a single Jew or Israeli advoca...
