It has been a conventional wisdom that the two-sample version of the goodness-of-fit test like the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Cramér-von Mises and Anderson-Darling tests fail to have good power particularly against very specific alternatives. We show that a modified version of Neyman Smooth test that...

This paper presents a simplified algorithm to estimate the monthly performance of autonomous small-scale wind energy systems with battery storage. The novel model is drawn based on the simulation results, using eight-year long hour-by-hour measured wind speed data from five different locations...

A “universal” fitting function has been recognized that makes use of the eigen-coordinates method (Physica A 285 (2000) 547) to accurately describe the distribution of ordered amplitudes within random sequences (taken from a diversity of sources). It is shown that sequences with a discrete...
