In this paper we propose bootstrapping Hannan and Rissanen (1982) estimators in stationary invertible VARMA models, with known order (p, q). Although we consider bootstrapping such models under the echelon form parameterization, the results we derive herein remain valid to other alternative identification issues. In particular, we shall exploit the theoretical developments stated in Dufour and ...

We consider the problem of testing whether the observations X 1; . . . ;X n of a time series are independent with unspecified (possibly nonidentical) distributions symmetric about a common known median. Various bounds on the distributions of serial correlation coefficients are proposed: exponential bounds, Eaton-type bounds, Chebyshev bounds and Berry–Esséen– Zolotarev bounds. The bounds are ex...

The phenomenon of convective flow with heat and mass transfer has been studied extensively due to its applications in various fields. effects nonlinear thermal radiation (NLTR), slip, thermal-diffusion (Soret) diffusion-thermo (Dufour) on magenoto-hydrodynamic (MHD) towards a stretching cylinder the presence triple stratification (TSF) are investigated this paper. governing equations transforme...

Associated to the sting apparatus of the aculeate hymenopterans is found the poison gland, originated from the glands associated to the ovipositor of the non-aculeate hymenopterans and the less derived Dufour gland, homologue of the coletterial gland of other insects, and found in all hymenopteran females. The Dufour gland functions is mostly uncertain in hymenopterans but in ants it is involve...

The effects of thermal radiation, Soret and Dufour parameters on mixed convection and nanofluid flow over a stretching sheet in the presence of a magnetic field are investigated. The flow is subject to temperature dependent viscosity and a chemical reaction parameter. It is assumed that the nanoparticle volume fraction at the wall may be actively controlled. The physical problem is modelled usi...

The primary theme of this communication is to employ convective condition of mass transfer in the theory of peristalsis. The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) peristaltic transport of viscous liquid in an asymmetric channel was considered for this purpose. Effects of Ohmic heating and Soret and Dufour are presented. The governing mathematical model was expressed in terms of closed form solution express...

A lattice Boltzmann model is proposed to asses the impact of variable molecular transport effects on the heat and mass transfer in a horizontal shallow cavity due to natural convection. The formulation includes a generalized form of the Soret and Dufour mass and heat diffusion (cross diffusion) vectors derived from non-equilibrium thermodynamics and fluctuation theory. Both the individual cross...

The present paper investigates the combined effects of Soret and Dufour on free convective heat and mass transfer on the unsteady one-dimensional boundary layer flow over a vertical channel in the presence of viscous dissipation and constant suction. The governing partial differential equations are solved numerically using the implicit Crank-Nicolson method. The velocity, temperature, and conce...

The Dufour gland in workers of vespine wasps appears as an unpaired tubiform gland that opens in close proximity to the sting base. The epithelial cells that line the central reservoir are characterized by apical microvillus-like projections and deep basal invaginations. Their cytoplasm contains a well-developed Golgi apparatus, numerous mitochondria, as well as strands of smooth endoplasmic re...
