Non-Gaussian distribution in random advection dynamics

Non-Gaussian distribution in random advection dynamics.

Simulations of vortex tube dynamics reveal that the non-Gaussian nature of turbulent fluctuation originates in the effect of random advection. A similar non-Gaussian distribution is found numerically in a simplified statistical model of random advection. An analytical solution is obtained in the mean-field case.

Autoregressive Gaussian Random Vectors of First Order

Index distribution of gaussian random matrices.

We compute analytically, for large N, the probability distribution of the number of positive eigenvalues (the index N+) of a random N x N matrix belonging to Gaussian orthogonal (beta=1), unitary (beta=2) or symplectic (beta=4) ensembles. The distribution of the fraction of positive eigenvalues c=N+/N scales, for large N, as P(c,N) approximately = exp[-betaN(2)Phi(c)] where the rate function Ph...

Numerical Simulation of Non-Gaussian Random Fields

The non-Gaussian random fields are used to modelling some dynamic loads generated by wind turbulence, ocean waves, earthquake ground motion etc. These fields also represent the uncertain properties of different materials (reinforced concrete, composite, soils etc.). This paper presents some methods and the corresponding algorithms to the numerical simulation of stationary non-Gaussian random fi...
