Transonic buffet refers to the self-sustained periodic motion of shock waves observed in transonic flows over wings and can limit flight envelope aircraft. Based on boundary layer characteristics at foot, has been classified as laminar or turbulent mechanisms underlying two have proposed be different (Dandois et al. , J. Fluid Mech. vol. 18, 2018, pp. 156–178). The effect various flow parameter...

Medicare policy making now deals mostly with price-setting issues. However, as Warren Buffet has noted: "Price is what you pay. Value is what you get." Victor Fuchs's studies raise fundamental issues for a value-oriented Medicare program. Florida offers one of many regional patterns of Medicare mortality that are not yet adequately explained. Valued-oriented, evidence-based Medicare policies wo...

This tutorial covers the Dirichlet distribution, Dirichlet process, Pólya urn (and the associated Chinese restaurant process), hierarchical Dirichlet Process, and the Indian buffet process. Apart from basic properties, we describe and contrast three methods of generating samples: stick-breaking, the Pólya urn, and drawing gamma random variables. For the Dirichlet process we first present an inf...

Transonic buffet is commonly associated with self-sustained flow unsteadiness involving shock-wave/boundary-layer interaction over airfoils and wings. The phenomenon has been classified as either laminar or turbulent based on the state of boundary layer immediately upstream shock foot, distinct mechanisms for two types have suggested. case known to be a global linear instability. Herein, large-...
