In this paper, we introduce a goodness of fit test for expo- nentiality based on Lin-Wong divergence measure. In order to estimate the divergence, we use a method similar to Vasicek’s method for estimat- ing the Shannon entropy. The critical values and the powers of the test are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. It is shown that the proposed test are competitive with other tests of exponentia...

We describe a Lagrangian particle advection scheme which is intended for use in hybrid finite-volume (FV) large-eddy simulation/filtered density function (LES/FDF) methods for low-Mach flows, but which may also be applicable to unsteady probability density function (PDF) methods, direct numerical simulation (DNS) or any other situation where tracking fluid particles is of concern. A key ingredi...

there are various ways for estimating velocity of money in economic literature and each has its own specific weaknesses and strengths. particularly, since a great deal of financial innovations and changes have recently taken place affecting the velocity of money, many traditional methods can no langer calculate the equilibrium velocity of money, and they are no longer dependable from the econom...

based on the “aggregate demand” theory, monetary policies are designed with the aim of achieving desirable level of macroeconomic goals through affecting the stock of money supplyand income velocity of money. thus, the velocity (v)-as well as money supply - has significant impact, particularly on rate of inflation through expansionary or contractionary monetary policy. to focus on the velocity ...

the relationship between some habitat factors and fish assemblage was analyzed in the taleghan river, alborz province, iran. fish specimens from thirty-three sites were sampled by electrofishing device in october 2014. the habitat parameters, including elevation (m), water depth (cm), river width (m), river slope (%), current velocity (m.s-1), number of large stone (> 15 cm), average stone diam...

   An investigation is carried out on MHD stagnation point flow of water-based nanofluids in which the heat and mass transfer includes the effects of slip and convective boundary conditions. Employing the similarity variables, the governing partial differential equations including continuity, momentum, energy, and concentration have been reduced to ordinary ones and solved by using...
