Book Description
The main goal of the project supported in this grant is to contribute to the understanding of localized spatial and spatio-temporal structures far from thermodynamic equilibrium. Here we report on our progress in the study of two classes of systems. (1) We have started to investigate localized wave-pulses in binary-mixture convection. This work is based on our recently derived extension of the conventionally used complex Ginzburg-Landau equations. We are considering three regimes: Dispersion-less supercritical waves; strongly dispersive subcritical waves; and localized waves as bound states of fronts between dispersionless subcritical waves and the motionless conductive state. (2) We have completed our investigation of steady domain structures in which domains of structures with different wave numbers alternate, separated by domain walls. In particular, we have studied their regimes of existence and stability within the framework of a Ginzburg-Landau equation and have compared it to previous results. Those were based on a long-wavelength approximation, which misses certain aspects which turn out to be important for the stability of the domain structures in realistic situations. In addition, we give a description of our work on resonantly forced waves in two-dimensional anisotropic systems.

Spatio-Temporal Statistics with R
Author: Christopher K. Wikle
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 0429649789
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
The world is becoming increasingly complex, with larger quantities of data available to be analyzed. It so happens that much of these "big data" that are available are spatio-temporal in nature, meaning that they can be indexed by their spatial locations and time stamps. Spatio-Temporal Statistics with R provides an accessible introduction to statistical analysis of spatio-temporal data, with hands-on applications of the statistical methods using R Labs found at the end of each chapter. The book: Gives a step-by-step approach to analyzing spatio-temporal data, starting with visualization, then statistical modelling, with an emphasis on hierarchical statistical models and basis function expansions, and finishing with model evaluation Provides a gradual entry to the methodological aspects of spatio-temporal statistics Provides broad coverage of using R as well as "R Tips" throughout. Features detailed examples and applications in end-of-chapter Labs Features "Technical Notes" throughout to provide additional technical detail where relevant Supplemented by a website featuring the associated R package, data, reviews, errata, a discussion forum, and more The book fills a void in the literature and available software, providing a bridge for students and researchers alike who wish to learn the basics of spatio-temporal statistics. It is written in an informal style and functions as a down-to-earth introduction to the subject. Any reader familiar with calculus-based probability and statistics, and who is comfortable with basic matrix-algebra representations of statistical models, would find this book easy to follow. The goal is to give as many people as possible the tools and confidence to analyze spatio-temporal data.
