Free Download QPLEX: A Computational Modeling and Analysis Methodology for Stochastic Systems
English | 2025 | ISBN: 3031748697 | 369 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 34 MB
This book introduces QPLEX, a powerful computational framework designed for modeling and analyzing nonstationary stochastic systems with large state spaces. The methodology excels at rapidly and accurately generating approximate distributions of system performance over time, offering a robust tool for understanding the dynamics of such systems. QPLEX circumvents the curse of dimensionality by imposing conditional independence, which may be represented via a probabilistic graphical model, and exploiting model dynamics. It is specifically crafted for transient analysis of nonstationary systems, often encountered in practical applications but rarely addressed by traditional techniques. It can work directly with empirical distributions and requires no stability assumptions. Since its output is not noisy, QPLEX is tailor-made for sensitivity analysis and optimization.

Free Download Computational and Conversational Discourse: Burning Issues – An Interdisciplinary Account By Emanuel A. Schegloff (auth.), Eduard H. Hovy, Donia R. Scott (eds.)
1996 | 202 Pages | ISBN: 3642082440 | PDF | 10 MB
People engage in discourse every day – from writing letters and presenting papers to simple discussions. Yet discourse is a complex and fascinating phenomenon that is not well understood. This volume stems from a multidisciplinary workshop in which eminent scholars in linguistics, sociology and computational linguistics presented various aspects of discourse. The topics treated range from multi-party conversational interactions to deconstructing text from various perspectives, considering topic-focus development and discourse structure, and an empirical study of discourse segmentation. The chapters not only describe each author’s favorite burning issue in discourse but also provide a fascinating view of the research methodology and style of argumentation in each field.

Free Download Computational Psycholinguistics: An Interdisciplinary Approach to the Study of Language By Matthew W. Crocker (auth.)
1996 | 248 Pages | ISBN: 0792338065 | PDF | 22 MB
Computational Psycholinguistics: An Interdisciplinary Approach to theStudy of Language investigates the architecture and mechanisms which underlie the human capacity to process language. It is the first such study to integrate modern syntactic theory, cross-linguistic psychological evidence, and modern computational techniques in constructing a model of the human sentence processing mechanism. The monograph follows the rationalist tradition, arguing the central role of modularity and universal grammar in a theory of human linguistic performance. It refines the notion of `modularity of mind’, and presents a distributed model of syntactic processing which consists of modules aligned with the various informational `types’ associated with modern linguistic theories. By considering psycholinguistic evidence from a range of languages, a small number of processing principles are motivated and are demonstrated to hold universally. It is also argued that the behavior of modules, and the strategies operative within them, can be derived from an overarching `Principle of Incremental Comprehension’. Audience: The book is recommended to all linguists, psycholinguists, computational linguists, and others interested in a unified and interdisciplinary study of the human language faculty.

Free Download Computational Atomic Physics: Electron and Positron Collisions with Atoms and Ions By Klaus Bartschat (auth.), Professor Dr. Klaus Bartschat (eds.)
1996 | 249 Pages | ISBN: 3642646557 | PDF | 9 MB
"Computational Atomic Physics" deals with computational methods for calculating electron (and positron) scattering from atoms and ions, including elastic scattering, excitation, and ionization processes. After an introductory chapter on atomic collision theory, two chapters are devoted to the bound-state wavefunctions. A description of perturbative methods is followed by discussions of the standard non-perturbative close-coupling theory, the R-matrix method, and the recently developed "convergent-close-coupling" approach. The details of calculating accurate Coulomb and Bessel functions are treated as well. Finally, the calculation of scattering amplitudes is discussed and an introduction to the density-matrix theory is given. The book provides a practical application of advanced quantum mechanics. The abstract equations of general scattering theory are reduced to numerically solvable differential and integral equations, and computer codes for the solution are provided. Numerous suggested problems in the text and ten programs on a diskette contribute to a deeper understanding of the field. The diskette The 10 program packages included on a 3 1/2" MS-DOS diskette are written in standard FORTRAN 77 and run on any computer that fulfills the following system requirements: 16MB RAM, MS-DOS 3.30 or higher; 486 DX processor with numerical coprocessor. The FORTRAN 77 source files allow for modification of the programs; therefore a FORTRAN 77 compiler is also needed. Example input and output files are provided for the text cases. * COREPOT core potentials * CIV3 atomic structure * DWBA first order distorted wave program for excitation * DWBIA first order distorted wave program for ionization * CCPA close-coupling for positron-atom scattering * RMATREX R-matrix program for electron-atom scattering * CCC convergent close-coupling * COUL90 Coulomb and Bessel functions

All papers presented belong to one of the three following categories: – Statistical methods (preferable new ones) that require a substantial use of computing; – Computer environments, tools and software useful in statistics; – Applications of computational statistics in areas of substantial interest (environment, health, industry, biometrics, etc.).

Free Download Advanced Computational Vibroacoustics: Reduced-Order Models and Uncertainty Quantification
English | 2014 | ISBN: 1107071712 | 136 Pages | PDF | 1.4 MB
Advanced Computational Vibroacoustics presents an advanced computational method for the prediction of sound and structural vibrations, in low- and medium-frequency ranges – complex structural acoustics and fluid-structure interaction systems encountered in aerospace, automotive, railway, naval, and energy-production industries. The formulations are presented within a unified computational strategy and are adapted for the present and future generation of massively parallel computers. A reduced-order computational model is constructed using the finite element method for the damped structure and the dissipative internal acoustic fluid (gas or liquid with or without free surface) and using an appropriate symmetric boundary-element method for the external acoustic fluid (gas or liquid). This book allows direct access to computational methods that have been adapted for the future evolution of general commercial software. Written for the global market, it is an invaluable resource for academic researchers, graduate students, and practising engineers.

Free Download Computational Methods in Mechanical Systems: Mechanism Analysis, Synthesis, and Optimization By Jorge Angeles (auth.), Jorge Angeles, Evtim Zakhariev (eds.)
1998 | 430 Pages | ISBN: 3642083692 | PDF | 11 MB
The chapters of this book summarize the lectures delivered du ring the NATO Advanced Study Institute (ASI) on Computational Methods in Mechanisms, that took place in the Sts. Constantin and Elena Resort, near Varna, on the Bulgarian Coast of the Black Sea, June 16-28, 1997. The purpose of the ASI was to bring together leading researchers in the area of mechanical systems at large, with special emphasis in the computational issues around their analysis, synthesis, and optimization, during two weeks of lectures and discussion. A total of 89 participants from 23 count ries played an active role during the lectures and sessions of contributed papers. Many of the latter are being currently reviewed for publication in specialized journals. The subject of the book is mechanical systems, Le. , systems composed of rigid and flexible bodies, coupled by mechanical means so as to constrain their various bodies in a goal-oriented manner, usually driven under computer con trol. Applications of the discipline are thus of the most varied nature, ranging from transportation systems to biomedical devices. U nder normal operation conditions, the constitutive bodies of a mechanical system can be consid ered to be rigid, the rigidity property then easing dramatically the analysis of the kinematics and dynamics of the system at hand. Examples of these systems are the suspension of a terrestrial vehicle negotiating a curve at speeds within the allowed or recommended limits and the links of multiaxis industrial robots performing conventional pick-and-place operations.
