On the computation of moments of the partial non-central χ -square distribution function

Gil, Amparo, Segura, Javier, Temme, Nico C. (2013)

Applications of Mathematics 2013

Properties satisfied by the moments of the partial non-central χ -square distribution function, also known as Nuttall Q-functions, and methods for computing these moments are discussed in this paper. The Nuttall Q-function is involved in the study of a variety of problems in different fields, as for example digital communications.

On the computational identification of temperature-variable characteristics of heat transfer

Vala, Jiří (2013)

Applications of Mathematics 2013

The mathematical analysis of a heat equation and its solutions is a standard part of most textbook of applied mathematics and computational mechanics. However, serious problems from engineering practice do not respect formal simplifications of such analysis, namely at high temperatures, for phase-change materials, etc. This paper, motivated by the material design and testing of a high-temperature thermal accumulator, as a substantial part of the Czech-Swedish project of an original equipment for...
