Stochastic Partial Differential Equations: An Introduction
This book provides an introduction to the theory of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) of evolutionary type. SPDEs are one of the main research directions in probability theory with several wide ranging applications. Many types of dynamics with stochastic influence in nature or man-made complex systems can be modelled by such equations. The theory of SPDEs is based both on the th…

Stochastic Parameterizing Manifolds and Non-Markovian Reduced Equations
In this second volume, a general approach is developed to provide approximate parameterizations of the "small" scales by the "large" ones for a broad class of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs). This is accomplished via the concept of parameterizing manifolds (PMs), which are stochastic manifolds that improve, for a given realization of the noise, in mean square error the partial…

Stochastic Optimization Methods
This book examines optimization problems that in practice involve random model parameters. It details the computation of robust optimal solutions, i.e., optimal solutions that are insensitive with respect to random parameter variations, where appropriate deterministic substitute problems are needed. Based on the probability distribution of the random data and using decision theoretical concepts…

Stochastic Multi-Stage Optimization
The focus of the present volume is stochastic optimization of dynamical systems in discrete time where - by concentrating on the role of information regarding optimization problems - it discusses the related discretization issues. There is a growing need to tackle uncertainty in applications of optimization. For example the massive introduction of renewable energies in power systems challenges …

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.
