The generation of non-Gaussian random processes with a given autocorrelation function (ACF) is addressed. The generation is based on a compound process with two components. Both components are solutions of appropriate stochastic differential equations (SDEs). One of the components is a Gaussian process and the other one is non-Gaussian with an exponential ACF. The analytical study shows that a compound combination of these processes may be used for the generation of a non-Gaussian random process with a required ACF. The results are verified by two numerical examples.

Upper and lower bounds are given for the probability that a separable random process X(t) will take values outside the interval (— λ 1, λ 2) for 0 ≦ t ≦ T, where λ 1 and λ 2 are positive constants. The random process needs to be neither stationary, Gaussian nor purely random (white noise). In engineering applications, X(t) is usually a random process decaying with time at least in the long run such as the structural response to the acceleration of ground motion due to earthquake. Numerical examples show that the present method estimates the probability between the upper and lower bounds which are sufficiently close to be useful when the random processes decay with time.

This paper proposes a method to identify non-Gaussian random noise in an unknown system through the use of a modified system identification (ID) technique in the stochastic domain, which is based on a recently developed Gaussian system ID. The non-Gaussian random process is approximated via an equivalent Gaussian approach. A modified Fokker–Planck–Kolmogorov equation based on a non-Gaussian analysis technique is adopted to utilize an effective Gaussian random process that represents an implied non-Gaussian random process. When a system under non-Gaussian random noise reveals stationary moment output, the system parameters can be extracted via symbolic computation. Monte Carlo stochastic simulations are conducted to reveal some approximate results, which are close to the actual values of the system parameters.

The role of wavelet transformation in the study of random processes is investigated. It is shown that wavelet transformation does not change the scaling index of random multiplicative cascade process. On the other hand, for pure random process, wavelet transformation is able to suppress the trivial fluctuations, coming from probability conservation, which will show an apparent increase in moments with the diminishing of bin size.

A Gaussian process is usually used to model the sea surface elevation in the oceanography. As the depth of the water decreases or the sea severity increases, the sea surface elevation departs from symmetry and Gaussianity. In this paper, a stationary non-Gaussian random process called the generalized hyperbolic process is used as an alternative model. The process generates a family of processes. We derive the rate of up-crossings for this process and the distribution of the height of the process. We also derive the duration distribution of an excursion for the generalized hyperbolic process.

In this paper the class of cyclostationary Gaussian random processes is studied. Basic asymptotics are given for the class of Gaussian processes that are centered and differentiable in mean square. Then, under certain conditions on the non-degeneration of the centered cyclostationary Gaussian process with integrable covariance functions, the Gnedenko-type limit formula is established for and all x > 0.
