Proceedings of the 2007 Winter Simulation Conference

Compounding processes, also known as perpetuities, play an important role in many applications; in particular, in time series analysis and mathematical finance. Apart from some special cases, the distribution of a perpetuity is hard to compute, and large deviations estimates sometimes involve complicated constants which depend on the complete distribution. Motivated by this, we propose provably...

33rd WEDC International Conference, City, Country, 2007

The paper presents a broad view about the measures for restoration of Lake Pampulha, Brazil. This man made reservoir is located in a dense inhabited urban area and constitutes the main touristic attraction of the city of Belo Horizonte. Since several decades the water body receives the discharge of untreated sewage from domestic as well from industrial sources, what leads to severe episodes of ...

MULTIBODY DYNAMICS 2007, ECCOMAS Thematic Conference

A methodology for the formulation of dynamic equations of motion of a serial flexible-link manipulator using the decoupled natural orthogonal complement (DeNOC) matrices, introduced elsewhere for rigid links, is presented in this paper. First, the Euler Lagrange (EL) equations of motion of the system at hand are written. Then, using the DeNOC matrices associated with the velocity constraints of...
