Stochastic Models for Structured Populations
This course concerns the stochastic modeling of population dynamics. In the first part, we focus on monotype populations described by one-dimensional stochastic differential equations with jumps. We consider their scaling limits for large populations and study the long time behavior of the limiting processes. It is achieved, thanks to martingale properties, Poisson measure representations, a…

Stochastic Modeling of Thermal Fatigue Crack Growth
The assessment of thermal fatigue crack growth due to turbulent mixing of hot and cold coolants presents significant challenges, in particular, to determine the thermal loading spectrum. Thermal striping is defined as a random temperature fluctuation produced by incomplete mixing of fluid streams at different temperatures, and it is essentially a random phenomenon in a temporal sense.

Stochastic Integration in Banach Spaces
The study of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) driven by Lévy processes in R originated in the book by Skorokhod [97]. In view of the Lévy–Itô decomposition, he reduced the problem of studying such SDEs to the analysis of SDEs driven by compensated Poisson random measures (cPrms) and Brownian motion, under a mild restriction [97]. He was aware of the fact that the restriction ca…

Engaging with Student Voice in Research, Education and Community Beyond Legi…
This work interrupts the current “consulting students” discourse that positions students as service clients and thus renders more problematic the concept of student voice in ways that it might be sustained as a democratic process. It looks at student voice holistically across realms of classroom practices, higher education, practitioner inquiry and policy formulation. The authors render pro…
