We study a one-dimensional model for heavy particles in a compressible fluid. The fluid-velocity field is modelled by a persistent Gaussian random function, and the particles are assumed to be weakly inertial. Since one-dimensional…
For optimal power flow problems with chance constraints, a particularly effective method is based on a fixed point iteration applied to a sequence of deterministic power flow problems. However, a priori, the convergence of such an approach…

A normalizing flow models a complex probability density as an invertible transformation of a simple density. The invertibility means that we can evaluate densities and generate samples from a flow. In practice, autoregressive flow-based…
We present a general solution of relativistic (1+1)-dimensional hydrodynamics for a perfect fluid flowing along the longitudinal direction as a function of time, uniformly in transverse space. The Khalatnikov potential is expressed as a…
