      Wang, Xiao; Liu, Yuan; Li, Like; Yenusah, Caleb O.; Xiao, Yaohong; Chen, Lei (Elsevier, 2021-05-01)
      Solid-state direct metal laser sintering (S-DMLS) builds structures by using laser energy to sinter powder particles in a layer-by-layer manner. Powder size distribution (PSD) is an important parameter governing the ...
    • Multifractional vector Brownian motions, their decompositions, and generalizations 

      Ma, Chunsheng (Taylor & Francis Group, 2015-05-04)
      This article introduces three types of covariance matrix structures for Gaussian or elliptically contoured vector random fields in space and/or time, which include fractional, bifractional, and trifractional vector Brownian ...
    • Multiqubit entanglement of a general input state 

      Behrman, Elizabeth C.; Steck, James E. (Rinton Press, Inc., 2013-01)
      Measurement of entanglement remains an important problem for quantum information. We present the design and simulation of an experimental method for an entanglement indicator for a general multiqubit state. The system can ...
    • Multivariate isotonic regression and its algorithms 

      Hoffmann, Linda (Wichita State University, 2009-05)
      We use regression functions, which are the means of random variables, to interpret statistical inference. Often an order is imposed on the values of the regression function. Thus, we refer to the regression as an order ...

    • Neutrino detector design, attenuation studies, and testing for the νSol project 

      Folkerts, Jonathan (Wichita State University, 2020-05)
      In order to further work on the Sol project funded through a NASA Phase II NIAC grant, I have performed detailed simulations on the effect of attenuation length on the performance of the Sol solar neutrino probe using ...

      Lorenzo, Edgardo; Malla, Ganesh B.; Mukerjee, Hari (Taylor & Francis, 2018-03-02)
      The mean residual life of a non negative random variable X with a finite mean is defined by M(t) = E[X - t|X > t] for t 0. One model of aging is the decreasing mean residual life (DMRL): M is decreasing (non increasing) ...
