The inverse Weibull distribution can be readily applied to a wide range of situations including applications in medicine, reliability and ecology. In this article we introduce a new model of generalized inverse Weibull distribution referred to as the Exponentiated generalized inverse distribution. We provide a comprehensive mathematical treatment of this distribution. We derive the moment gener...

The effect of the choice of control allocation scheme upon individual control effector rate demands is examined. Three previously reported and one new variation of control allocation schemes are described and compared. The new allocation scheme exploits the maximum attainable moment-rates of a given control effector configuration and is called moment rate allocation. The bases of comparison are...

In the present paper, we would like to draw attention to a possible generalized Fisher information that ts well in the formalism of nonextensive thermostatistics. This generalized Fisher information is de ned for densities on R. Just as the maximum Rényi or Tsallis entropy subject to an elliptic moment constraint is a generalized qGaussian, we show that the minimization of the generalized Fishe...

We investigate the magnetic and structural properties of the ~001! surfaces of V, Cr, and one monolayer V on Cr in density-functional theory in the local spin-density and the generalized gradient approximation. For both exchange-correlation potentials the surface magnetic moment of Cr is very large (2.6mB) and the V surface is nonmagnetic. One monolayer V on Cr exhibits also a large magnetic mo...

A new spectrum sensing detector is proposed and analytically studied, when it operates under generalized noise channels. Particularly, the McLeish distribution used to model underlying noise, which suitable for both non-Gaussian (impulsive) as well classical Gaussian modeling. The introduced adopts a moment-based approach, whereas not required know transmit signal channel fading statistics (i.e...
