Analysis of the Characteristics, Physical Concepts and Entropy Generation in a Turbulent Channel Flow Using Vortex Blob Method

In this paper, using vortex blob method (VBM), turbulent flow in a channel is studied and physical concepts of turbulence are obtained and discussed. At first, time-averaged velocities,  and , and then their fluctuations are calculated. To clarify turbulence structures, velocity fluctuations and  are plotted. It is observed that turbulence structures occupy different positions and move with con...

Stage Life Testing with Missing Stage Information - an EM-Algorithm Approach

We consider a stage life testing model and assume that the information at which levels the failures occurred is not available. In order to find estimates for the lifetime distribution parameters, we propose an EM-algorithm approach which interprets the lack of knowledge about the stages as missing information. Furthermore, we illustrate the implementation difficulties caused by an increasing nu...

Average Channel Capacity of Free-space Optical Mimo Systems over Atmospheric Turbulence Channels

In this paper, we theoretically analyze the performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) free-space optical (FSO) systems. The MIMO/FSO average channel capacity (ACC), which is expressed in terms of average spectral efficiency (ASE) is derived taking into account the atmospheric turbulence effects on the MIMO/FSO channel. They are modeled by log-normal and the gamma-gamma distributions ...
