An applied mathematics perspective on stochastic modelling for climate.
Systematic strategies from applied mathematics for stochastic modelling in climate are reviewed here. One of the topics discussed is the stochastic modelling of mid-latitude low-frequency variability through a few teleconnection patterns, including the central role and physical mechanisms responsible for multiplicative noise. A new low-dimensional stochastic model is developed here, which mimic...
متن کاملEffect of strain on surface diffusion in semiconductor heteroepitaxy
We present a first-principles analysis of the strain renormalization of the cation diffusivity on the GaAs(001) surface. For the example of In/GaAs(001)-c(4 × 4) it is shown that the binding of In is increased when the substrate lattice is expanded. The diffusion barrier ∆E(ε) has a non-monotonic strain dependence with a maximum at compressive strain values (ε < 0), while being a decreasing fun...
متن کاملContinuum and Non-continuum Modelling of Nanofluidics
Recent development in nanoand biotechnology has opened a new field of microand nanofluidics. Many MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical-systems) and NEMS ( nano-electromechanical-systems ) are based on the fluid motion. Additionally, the analysis of biological samples, drug design and nanomedicine are connected to nanoliter fluid flow. The challenge for understanding such small systems lies in the dif...
متن کاملContinuum Modelling of Traffic Flow
We wish to consider the problem of modelling flow of vehicles within a traffic network. In the past, stochastic traffic models have been developed [13, 8] in order to investigate a wide range of traffic configurations. However, if the population is sufficiently large, these stochastic processes tend towards a continuum approach. Consequently, this approach is most useful when considering long, ...
متن کاملAn applied mathematician's perspective on Rosennean Complexity
The theoretical biologist Robert Rosen developed a highly original approach for investigating the question “What is life?”, the most fundamental problem of biology. Considering that Rosen made extensive use of mathematics it might seem surprising that his ideas have only rarely been implemented in mathematical models. On the one hand, Rosen propagates relational models that neglect underlying s...
