the discharge data used for hydrological modeling should be the long-term suitable random data without trend and jump which is followed a specific statistical distribution. in this study, the above mentioned conditions were evaluated for 31 years period (1974-2004) of annual mean discharge data of 10 gauging stations of west azarbaijan province. for this purpose, the non-parametric spearman cor...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of body mass index on fundamental motor skills performance in 7-8-year-old boys in hamedan. forthis purpose, 72 elementary students were selected via cluster randomization from the elementary schools of hamedan and divided into three groups: fat, normal, and thin according to percentile diagram. then, tgmd-2 was performed by children and ...

purpose the purpose of this study was to describe the body structure and morphological characteristics of tunisian elite handball players, and to determine the effect of these variables on functional and physical performance levels. methods a sample of 42 male handball players (mean age 21.98±3.24 years; training duration 12 years) at international level was submitted to a test battery comprisi...

We compute the Wiener-Poisson expansion of square-integrable functionals of a nite number of Poisson jump times in series of multiple Poisson stochastic integrals.

The thesis is composed of three essays on auction theory. The focus is mainly on the English auction, which is probably the format most commonly used. In the English auction, a bidder can see his opponents’ activity as the price is gradually raised starting from a very low price. When only one bidder is left, such bidder is declared the winner and pays the price at which the last but one bidder...

This paper deals with minimization of the variances of the total discounted costs for constrained Continuous-Time Markov Decision Processes (CTMDPs). The costs consist of cumulative costs incurred between jumps and instant costs incurred at jump epochs. We interpret discounting as an exponentially distributed stopping time. According to existing theory, for the expected total discounted costs o...

futures contract is one of the most important derivatives that is used in financial markets in all over the world to buy or sell an asset or commodity in the future. pricing of this tool depends on expected price of asset or commodity at the maturity date. according to this, theoretical futures pricing models try to find this expected price in order to use in the futures contract. so in this ar...

we derive closed formulas for the prices of european options andtheir sensitivities when the underlying asset follows a double-exponentialjump diffusion model, as considered by s. kou in 2002. this author hasderived the option price by making use of double series where each termrequires the computation of a sequence of special functions, such thatthe implementation remains difficult for a large...

The available studies for estimating the characteristics of hydraulic jump are only for artificial or natural beds, and very limited researches have simultaneously considered artificial and natural beds. The aim of this study is to present comprehensive equations and models for predicting the characteristics of hydraulic jump in artificial and natural rough beds with various dimensions, arrange...
