Title  Multivariate Discrete-time Stochastic Processes: Model and Applications

Abstract  We present a multivariate discrete-time stochastic processes model for three asset classes: US stocks (S&P 500), international stocks, and US corporate bonds, with four factors: S&P 500 volatility and earnings; bond rates and long-short term spreads. Our model has annual time steps but allows for monthly/quarterly withdrawals/contributions. Our main tool is classic multiple linear regression. We fit it using a century of historical data. We test whether innovations are independent identically distributed. But they are not Gaussian, so we use multivariate kernel density estimation for simulation. We simulated a few scenarios using a web app. Our research is open source: Python code and historical data is published on GitHub.

Title  Predicting unsteady aerodynamics and aeroacoustics using high-order methods for compressible flows

Abstract  The certification and deployment of emerging aerospace technologies depend on a deeper understanding of compressible flow physics to address challenges in both aerodynamic performance and noise generation. At low speeds, unmanned aerial vehicles and advanced air-mobility platforms offer new economic opportunities but require reliable models of flow-induced noise to enable operation in urban environments. At high speeds, renewed interest in supersonic and hypersonic flight, for both commercial and defense applications, demands better understanding of unsteady shock dynamics and their impact on vehicle performance and structural response.

High-fidelity numerical simulation plays a crucial role in this effort by enabling the dissection of underlying flow mechanisms that drive both aerodynamic loads and acoustic emissions. In this talk, I will present direct numerical simulations of the compressible Navier–Stokes equations applied to problems in unsteady aerodynamics and aeroacoustics. Topics will include the prediction of airfoil noise generated by turbulent flows, shock–boundary-layer interaction leading to wing flutter, and supersonic bluff-body wake dynamics relevant to re-entry vehicles.
