Hesitant Fuzzy-Stochastic Data Envelopment Analysis (HF-SDEA) Model for Benchmarking
JOIV: International Journal on Informatics Visualization, 2021 The Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method is a method commonly used in benchmarking. The Dynamic Data Envelopment Analysis (DDEA) method was proposed to improve the DEA method in the benchmarking process.

Stochastic Material Point Method for Analysis in Non-Linear Dynamics of Metals
Metals, 2019 A stochastic material point method is proposed for stochastic analysis in non-linear dynamics of metals with varying random material properties. The basic random variables are parameters of equation of state and those of constitutive equation.

A New Stochastic Model Updating Method Based on Improved Cross-Model Cross-Mode Technique
Sensors, 2021 This paper proposes a new stochastic model updating method to update structural models based on the improved cross-model cross-mode (ICMCM) technique. This new method combines the stochastic hybrid perturbation-Galerkin method with the ICMCM method to ...

Stein's Method and Stochastic Orderings [PDF]
Advances in Applied Probability, 2012 A stochastic ordering approach is applied with Stein's method for approximation by the equilibrium distribution of a birth-death process. The usual stochastic order and the more generals-convex orders are discussed. Attention is focused on Poisson and translated Poisson approximations of a sum of dependent Bernoulli random variables, for example,k-runs

PRACTICAL STOCHASTIC MODEL FOR CHEMICAL KINETICS
Química Nova, 2015 The Practical Stochastic Model is a simple and robust method to describe coupled chemical reactions. The connection between this stochastic method and a deterministic method was initially established to understand how the parameters and variables that ...

Computational Optimization and ApplicationsIs it possible for a first-order method, i.e., only first derivatives allowed, to be quadratically convergent? For univariate loss functions, the answer is yes -- the Steffensen method avoids second derivatives and is still quadratically convergent like Newton method.

Fuzzy Optimization and Modeling, 2021 In this paper, we improved the split step $ vartheta $ method to solve the stochastic differential equations. The strong convergence of this approximation for stochastic differential equations, whose drift and diffusion coefficients are globally ...

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
