We address the problem of predicting high detail RNA structure geometry from information available in low resolution experimental maps electron density. Here refers to ≥2.5Å where location phosphate groups and glyocosidic bonds can be determined density but all other backbone atom positions cannot. In contrast, determines atomic positions. To this end, we firstly create a gold standard data base for four manually corrected suites, each reflecting one out sugar pucker-pair configurations....
For the design and operation of large fusion devices a detailed understanding power exhaust processes is necessary.This paper will give an overview current research on divertor load mechanisms.The results shown are obtained in JET with ITER like wall ASDEX Upgrade tungsten coated plasma facing components.The challenges infrared thermography bulk presented.For steady state heat load, fall-off length λ q JET-ILW compared to empirical scaling found carbon components.A first attempt scale...
We show that there always exists a sequence of normalizing constants for the supercritical multitype Galton-Watson process so normalized converges in probability to limit which is proper and not identically zero. The Laplace-Stieltjes transform random variable characterized as unique solution under certain conditions vector Poincare functional equation.
Large deviation principles are established for some random combinatorial structures including the Ewens sampling formula and Pitman formula. A path-level large principle is former on cadlag space D$(o, 1], R)$ equipped with uniform convergence topology, rate function same as a Poisson process justifying approximation at level. total number of parts in partition obtained formula; here depends only one two parameters which display different roles scales. In addition to these results, we also...
A characteristic property of the Ewen sampling formula is shown to follow from invariance under size-biased Poisson–Dirichlet distribution.

The multitype Galton-Watson process is considered both with and without immigration. Proofs are given for the existence of invariant measures their uniqueness examined by functional equation methods. Theorem 2.1 proves uniqueness, under certain conditions, solutions a multidimensional Schröder equation. Regular variation shown to play role in theory.
This paper presents a best estimate plus uncertainty (BEPU) methodology applied to dryout, or critical channel power (CCP), modeling based on Monte Carlo approach. method involves the identification of sources and development error models for characterization separation epistemic aleatory uncertainties associated with CCP parameter. Furthermore, proposed facilitates use actual operational data leading improvements over traditional methods, such as sensitivity analysis, which assume...
The response of a complex physical system is often evaluated by tolerance interval for percentile the distribution variable interest that estimated best-estimate codes. This used as test statistic to make decisions about behavior in context specific safety issue. most common methods determine such intervals are order statistics leading so-called "95/95" level standard. application these predicated on assumption simulated responses identical those an actual reactor under postulated...
Résumé L'identité de Gumbel établit l'égalité la somme Bonferroni S k,n , k = 0, 1, 2, … n et du moment binomial d'ordre variable qui compte, dans un ensemble arbitraire événements, le nombre M d'événements se réalisant. Nous présentons traitement unifié bornes bien connues obtenues ce contexte par Bonferroni, Galambos‐Rényi, Dawson‐Sankoff Chung‐Erdös, ainsi que quelques moins établies Fréchet Gumbel. Toutes font intervenir des sommes Bonferroni. Notre démarche consiste à montrer ces...
