The Poisson regression (PR) model is inappropriate for modeling over- or under-dispersed (or inflated) data. Several generalizations of PR model have been proposed for modeling such data. In this paper, a rich family of generalized Poisson regression (GPR) models is reviewed in detail. The...

The lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) for multicomponent immiscible fluids is applied to simulations of the deformation and breakup of a particle-cluster aggregate in shear flows. In the simulations, the solid particle is modeled by a droplet with strong interfacial tension and large viscosity. The...

Accurate modeling of pulse propagation and scattering in dispersive medium is a problem in many disciplines (i.e. electromagnetics and acoustics). The inclusion of an additional term in the wave equation (the derivative of the convolution between the causal time-domain propagation factor and the...
