Adsorption of polymers on a random surface [PDF]
We investigate the adsorption of a polymer on a planar, random surface. For this we use a generalization of de Gennes's boundary condition to a random one, and path-integral methods. For weak randomness, the chain size is reduced slightly from its value in the absence of randomness.

Robust Optimization of Natural Laminar Flow Airfoil Based on Random Surface Contamination
Natural laminar-flow (NLF) airfoils are one of the most promising technologies for extending the range and endurance of aircrafts. However, there is a lack of methods for the optimization of airfoils based on the surface contamination that destroys the ...

Surface Reconstruction With Optimized Random Laser Plane Generated From Cylindrical Reference
A reconstruction approach is presented with a random laser plane and a cylindrical reference. A semi-cylinder reference with the known diameter is designed as the cylindrical-coordinate-system.

Quenched invariance principles for random walks and elliptic diffusions in random media with boundary [PDF]
Via a Dirichlet form extension theorem and making full use of two-sided heat kernel estimates, we establish quenched invariance principles for random walks in random environments with a boundary.

Phase transitions in random surfaces
Abstract We investigate the statistical properties of triangulated random surfaces of fixed connectivity embedded in d-dimensional space and weighted with an action that contains the extrinsic curvature of the surface as well as the usual Nambu-Goto term. Numerically, we find no second-order phase transition for finite values of the rigidity coupling,
