Tails of random sums of a heavy-tailed number of light-tailed terms [PDF]

open access: yesInsurance: Mathematics and Economics, 2008
The tail of the distribution of a sum of a random number of independent and identically distributed nonnegative random variables depends on the tails of the number of terms and of the terms themselves. This situation is of interest in the collective risk model, where the total claim size in a portfolio is the sum of a random number of claims.

Variable-speed tail rotors for helicopters with variable-speed main rotors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Variable tail rotor speed is investigated as a method for reducing tail rotor power, and improving helicopter performance. A helicopter model able to predict the main rotor and tail rotor powers is presented, and the flight test data of the UH-60A ...

Undulatory Swimming Performance Explored With a Biorobotic Fish and Measured by Soft Sensors and Particle Image Velocimetry

open access: yesFrontiers in Robotics and AI, 2022
Due to the difficulty of manipulating muscle activation in live, freely swimming fish, a thorough examination of the body kinematics, propulsive performance, and muscle activity patterns in fish during undulatory swimming motion has not been conducted ...

Coordination of opposing sex-specific and core muscle groups regulates male tail posture during Caenorhabditis elegans male mating behavior [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background To survive and reproduce, animals must be able to modify their motor behavior in response to changes in the environment. We studied a complex behavior of Caenorhabditis elegans, male mating behavior, which provided a model for understanding ...

Helicopter tail rotor thrust and main rotor wake coupling in crosswind flight [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The tail rotor of a helicopter with a single main rotor configuration can experience a significant reduction in thrust when the aircraft operates in crosswind flight. Brown’s vorticity transport model has been used to simulate a main rotor and tail rotor

Long-tail Relation Extraction via Knowledge Graph Embeddings and Graph Convolution Networks [PDF]

open access: yesNorth American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics, 2019
We propose a distance supervised relation extraction approach for long-tailed, imbalanced data which is prevalent in real-world settings. Here, the challenge is to learn accurate “few-shot” models for classes existing at the tail of the class ...

Cartilage and Muscle Cell Fate and Origins during Lizard Tail Regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2017
IntroductionHuman cartilage is an avascular tissue with limited capacity for repair. By contrast, certain lizards are capable of musculoskeletal tissue regeneration following tail loss throughout all stages of their lives.

The Tail of the Late Jurassic Sauropod Giraffatitan brancai: Digital Reconstruction of Its Epaxial and Hypaxial Musculature, and Implications for Tail Biomechanics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Dinosaur locomotion and biomechanics, especially of their pelvic girdles and hindlimbs, have been analyzed in numerous studies. However, detailed volumetric musculoskeletal models of their tails are rarely developed.
