The asymptotic number of integer stochastic matrices

Let Hⁿ_r be the number of n × n matrices, with nonnegative integer elements, all of whose row and column sums are equal to some prescribed integer r. Similarly, let Aⁿ_r be the number of n × n (0.1) matrices with common row and column sum r. An asymptotic formula for Hⁿ_r is stated and proved, the method of proof being essentially elementary. A simple modification of the proof yields an analogous asymptotic formula for Aⁿ_r. The latter agrees with a result of O'Neil, obtained by a completely different method.     

Some characterization theorems for circuit spaces associated with graphs

A circuit space is an independence space (or matroid) in which each basis is contained in a circuit. In this paper we consider various independence spaces associated with a graph and seek to discover for which graphs these spaces are circuit spaces and, in particular, truncated spaces. Some definitive results are obtained and some interesting questions are left open.

A mathematical model for nonlinear analysis of flow pulses utilizing an integral technique

An existing one-dimensional mathematical model, for the arterial tree was extended to include the effects of radial variation of axial fluid velocity by the application of an integral technique. The resulting formulation reduced to a system of characteristics equations similar, in form to the equations for the onedimensional model and the computer program was modified to accommodate the integral formulation. The need for a kinematic boundary condition on the axial component of wall velocity was demonstrated. Results were obtained for a variety of velocity profiles. It was found that the slope of the front and back of the waves as well as the wave, amplitude are sensitive to changes in the velocity profile and the axial component of wall velocity. The velocity of the waves is also effected but not significantly.

Zusammenfassung Die eindimensionale Theorie von Anliker et al. (ZAMP22, 217 (1971)) wird in dieser Arbeit dahingehend erweitert, dass der Einfluss des Geschwindigkeitsprofiles mitberücksichtigt wird. Die Navier-Stokes-Gleichungen und die Kontinuitätsgleichung werden mit Hilfe einer Integraltechnik auf ähnliche, für die Rechnung mit dem Computer geeignete Gleichungen zurückgeführt, wie sie von Anliker et al. verwendet wurden. Die charakteristischen Grössen des Geschwindigkeitsprofiles sowie die Geschwindigkeit der Gefässwand gehen als Parameter in die Theorie ein, so dass parametrische Studien durchgeführt werden können.
