Highlights

CASPER

This collaborative research effort, dubbed Coupled Air-Sea Processes and EM Ducting Research (CASPER) addresses overarching knowledge gaps related to electromagnetic (EM) wave propagation in coastal Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layers (MABL). The objective is to fully characterize the MABL as an EM propagation environment.

Hybrid schemes for exact conditional inference in discrete exponential families

Exact conditional goodness-of-fit tests for discrete exponential family models can be conducted via Monte Carlo estimation of p values by sampling from the conditional distribution of multiway contingency tables. The proposed method runs many parallel chains initialized at SIS samples across the fiber. The scheme alleviates many of the challenges faced by the MCMC and SIS schemes individually while largely retaining their strengths. It also provides diagnostics that guide and lend credibility to the procedure. Simulations demonstrate the viability of the approach.

null Exercise Coherent Resilience 2017

Prof. Alan Howard

This project covers the participation of the Naval Postgraduate School's (NPS) Energy Academic Group (EAG) in EXERCISE COHERENT RESILIENCE 2017 (CORE17) Kyiv, Ukraine, specifically pre-exercise planning, exercise execution (16-20 October) and post-exercise report and presentation requirements through December 2017. CORE17's main focus is supporting resilient critical energy infrastructure in the face of physical acts of sabotage and cyber-attacks from Russia.
