Innovative transition matrix techniques are used to compare extreme credit risk for Australian and US companies both prior to and during the global financial crisis (GFC). Transition matrix methodology is traditionally used to measure Value at Risk (VaR), a measure of risk below a specified...

A model of morphological development of living tissues could be split into three mutually entangled parts: a mechanical model of tissues, diffusion of signaling molecules, and a gene regulatory network. This paper propose a cellular automaton mechanical model of mesenchyme including its growth...

This paper uses the DIEHARD statistical test suite to test the randomness quality of “permuted” versions of maximum length sequences generated by linear finite state machines (LFSM) such as cellular automata and linear feedback shift registers. Analysis shows that permuted sequences can be...

Knowledge-based or Artificial Intelligence techniques are used increasingly as alternatives to more classical techniques to model environmental systems. We review some of them and their environmental applicability, with examples and a reference list. The techniques covered are case-based...

This study presents an efficient division architecture using restricted irreducible polynomial on elliptic curve cryptosystem (ECC), based on cellular automata. The most expensive arithmetic operation in ECC is division, which is performed by multiplying the inverse of a multiplicand. The...

This article presents a basic introduction and some advanced concepts used in the use of cellular automata for the modeling and simulation of the motion of grain boundaries in evolving microstructures. An attempt is made to compile a complete review of literature in this context only. It is...

In this paper, we investigate nonlinear adaptive–impulsive synchronization of chaotic systems. The core of adaptive–impulsive synchronization of chaotic systems is to design suitable nonlinear adaptive–impulsive controllers to attain certain aims. Based on invariant principle of impulsive...

The response of a two-degree-of-freedom system with quadratic coupling under a modulated amplitude sinusoidal excitation is studied and solved. The method of multiple scale perturbation technique is applied to obtain the bifurcation response equation near the combination resonance case in the...

This paper proposes a simple adaptive synchronization method for a chaotic permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Convergence of the closed-loop system responses is shown by using a Lyapunov function. The proposed adaptive synchronization method does not require the restrictive assumption of...

A nonlinear stability analysis using a multiple-scales perturbation procedure is performed for the instability of two layers of immiscible, strongly anisotropic, magnetized, inviscid, arbitrarily compressible fluids in relative motion. Such configurations are of relevance in a variety of...
