Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH_ is a mesh-free Lagrangian method renowned for modeling large deformations and free-surface flows, yet classical formulations remain confined to deterministic systems. We introduce Stochastic SPH…
We consider stochastic processes $Y(t)$ which can be represented as $Y(t)=(X(t))^s, s \in \mathbb{N},$ where $X(t)$ is a stationary strictly sub-Gaussian process and build a wavelet-based model that simulates $Y(t)$ with given accuracy and…
