Abstract: The problem of conditional simulation of non-Gaussian stochastic processes and fields has gained a significant interest recently because of its applications in many fields, such as wind engineering, ocean engineering, and ...

Abstract: In this paper, a direct simulation algorithm is presented for the generation of a class of non-Gaussian stochastic processes according to target lower-order moments and prescribed power spectral density (PSD) function. The ...

Abstract: A novel numerical method based on the differential transformation is proposed for solving nonlinear optimal control problems in this paper. The differential transformation is a linear operator ...
