In the absolutely continuous case, order statistics, record values and several other models of ordered random variables can be viewed as special cases of generalized order statistics, which enables a unified treatment of their theory. This paper deals with discontinuous generalized order statistics, continuing on the recent work of Tran (2006). Specifically, we show that in general neither re...

Abstract. The present paper introduces bilinear forms that are equivalent to the recovery-based discontinuous Galerkin formulation introduced by Van Leer in 2005. The recovery method approximates the solution of the diffusion equation in a discontinuous function space, while inter-element coupling is achieved by a local L2 projection that recovers a smooth continuous function underlying the dis...

In this paper, we are interested in scalable Domain Decomposition Methods (DDM). To this end, we introduce and study a new Coarse Space Correction algorithm for Optimized Schwarz Methods(OSM): the DCS-DGLC algorithm. The main idea is to use a Discontinuous Galerkin like formulation to compute a discontinuous coarse space correction. While the local spaces remain continuous, the coarse space sho...

The drive-response synchronization of delayed neural networks with discontinuous activation functions is investigated via adaptive control.The synchronization of this paper means that the synchronization error approaches to zero for almost all time as time goes to infinity. The discontinuous activation functions are assumed to be monotone increasing which can be unbounded. Due to the mild condi...

splenogonadal fusion is a rare entity with approximately 150 reported cases until the year 2005. the entity is a rare congenital anomaly in which there is fusion of splenic and gonadal anlagen or mesonephric derivatives. splenogonadal fusion has two continuous and discontinuous types. about ten cases have been reported to be associated with bilateral cryptorchidism in literature. very few cases...

Two phase flow in porous media is well known for its high importance in many of the industrial and engineering applications like petroleum reservoir, sedimentation process, water management in polymer electrolyte fuel cells, environmental remediation etc. By the two phase flow we mean the simultaneous flow of two fluids ( for instance oil and water) and a porous medium is a substance that conta...

This study is concerned with the solution of the time domain Maxwell’s equations in a dispersive propagation media by a Discontinuous Galerkin Time Domain (DGTD) method. The Debye model is used to describe the dispersive behaviour of the media. The resulting system of equations is solved using a centered flux discontinuous Galerkin formulation for the discretization in space and a second order ...

The fractional vegetation coverage (FVC) can visually represent ecological changes in a region. Based on MDO12A1 data to calculate FVC, we investigated the spatial and temporal variations of FVC Qinghai Province from 2001 2015 performed correlation analysis with annual mean temperature rainfall. results indicate that increase gradually northwest southeast are discontinuous due topographic varia...

Abstract Lakes are an important ecosystem component and geomorphological agent in northern high latitudes it is to understand how lake initiation, expansion drainage may change as continue warm. In this study, we utilized Landsat Multispectral Scanner System images from the 1970s (1972, 1974, 1975) Operational Land Imager 2010s (2013, 2014, 2015) assess broad-scale distribution changes of lakes...
