Analysis of Local Seismic Events near a Large-N Array for Moho Reflections [PDF]
Local seismic events recorded by the large-N IRIS Community Wavefield Experiment in Oklahoma are used to estimate Moho reflections near the array. For events within 50 km of the center of the array, normal moveout corrections and receiver stacking are ...

GAFA Geometric And Functional Analysis FINITE JET DETERMINATION OF LOCAL ANALYTIC CR AUTOMORPHISMS AND THEIR PARAMETRIZATION BY 2-JETS IN THE FINITE [PDF]
We show that germs of local real-analytic CR automorphisms of a real-analytic hypersurface M in C 2 at a point p ∈ M are uniquely determined by their jets of some finite order at p if and only if M is not Levi-flat near p.

Optimality-based modeling of planktonic organisms [PDF]
On the basis of the assumption that natural selection should tend to produce organisms optimally adapted to their environments, we consider optimality as a guiding concept for abstracting the behavior of aquatic microorganisms (plankton) to develop ...

Model order reduction for large-scale structures with local nonlinearities [PDF]
In solid mechanics, linear structures often exhibit (local) nonlinear behavior when close to failure. For instance, the elastic deformation of a structure becomes plastic after being deformed beyond recovery.
