Stochastic density distribution

The stochastic density distribution may be computed by maximizing the configurational entropy of the process investigated. 

The stochastic density distribution defined by Eq.5 has a normalized standard deviation 0 given by (Crine et a., 1982b)... 

A careful observation of Eqs. (4.79), (4.80), (4.100) and their respective theoretical basis [4.44, 4.45], allows one to conclude that the probability density distribution that describes the fact that the particle is in position x at t time, when the medium is moving according to one stochastic diffusion process (see relation (4.62) for the analogous discontinuous process), is given by Eq. (4.111). This relation is known as the Eokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation. 

Individual cells in stacks, even though carrying the same current, have different cell voltages. This is due to systematic and stochastic materials, tolerances, mass transport, and temperature differences which consequently also lead to differences in current density distribution in different cells. 

The incorporation of discreet nucleation events into models for the current density has been reviewed by Scharifker et al. [111]. The current density is found by integrating the current over a large number of nucleation sites whose distribution and growth rates depend on the electrochemical potential field and the substrate properties. The process is non-local because the presence of one nucleus affects the controlling field and influences production or growth of other nuclei. It is deterministic because microscopic variables such as the density of nuclei and their rate of formation are incorporated as parameters rather than stochastic variables. Various approaches have been taken to determine the macroscopic current density to overlapping diffusion fields of distributed nuclei under potentiostatic control. 

The probability bounding approach to this problem is to form the stochastic envelope of the possible models. For instance, suppose that we think that either model I or model II represents the fact of the matter, but we don t know which it is. Let s say these 2 models lead to 2 different distributions. Suppose they are the probability density functions labeled I and II in the upper graph of Figure 6.13. 

An extended medium comprising the s-region can be described statistically with the probability distribution Pa(bo) of initial boson amplitudes. The stochastic assumption means that only averages A = J dbQ Ps(b0)A(b0) of properties A over this distribution are needed. With this in mind, we look for statistical averages p — of the p-region density operator, satisfying an averaged equation of motion,... 

We report the one-compartment probabilistic transfer model receiving the drug particles by an absorption process. In this model, the elimination rate h was fixed and the absorption constant hev was random. For the stochastic context, the difference hev — h = w is assumed to follow the gamma distribution, i.e., W Gam(A, //.) with density / (w, A, //.) and E [W] =...
