Reversible Transport of Interacting Brownian Ratchets

Rogério M. da Silva, Clécio C. de Souza Silva, Sérgio Coutinho

The transport of interacting Brownian particles in a periodic asymmetric (ratchet) substrate is studied numerically. In a zero-temperature regime, the system behaves as a reversibl…

Reverse rotations in the circularly-driven motion of a rigid body

Fernando Parisio

We study the dynamical response of a circularly-driven rigid body, focusing on the description of intrinsic rotational behavior (reverse rotations). The model system we address is…

The Weibull-Geometric distribution

Wagner Barreto-Souza, Alice Lemos de Morais, Gauss M. Cordeiro

In this paper we introduce, for the first time, the Weibull-Geometric distribution which generalizes the exponential-geometric distribution proposed by Adamidis and Loukas (1998).…

A Generalization of the Exponential-Poisson Distribution

Wagner Barreto-Souza, Francisco Cribari-Neto

The two-parameter distribution known as exponential-Poisson (EP) distribution, which has decreasing failure rate, was introduced by Kus (2007). In this paper we generalize the EP d…

The Beta Generalized Exponential Distribution

Wagner Barreto-Souza, Alessandro H. S. Santos, Gauss M. Cordeiro

We introduce the beta generalized exponential distribution that includes the beta exponential and generalized exponential distributions as special cases. We provide a comprehensive…

Improved estimators for a general class of beta regression models

Alexandre B. Simas, Wagner Barreto-Souza, Andréa V. Rocha

In this paper we consider an extension of the beta regression model proposed by Ferrari and Cribari-Neto (2004). We extend their model in two different ways, first, we let the regr…
