In general case, Chambers et al. (1976) introduced the following algorithm for simulating any stable random variables $ X/sim(alpha, beta, gamma, delta) $ with four parameters. They use a nonlinear transformation of two independent uniform random variables for simulating an stable random variable... (to continue, click here)

Utilization of unharnessed hydro-power necessitates designing fish-friendly hydraulic machinery. Towards this effort, the present work investigates various methods for tracking fish motion, ranging from particle to accurate, but computationally expensive, body methods, such as immersed boundaries and overset meshes. Moreover, a novel uncoupled 6-Degree Freedom technique is proposed, based on an...
