Several papers discuss simultaneous test procedures, stochastic Markovian fields, as well as the stopping of invariant sequential probability ratio tests. One paper examines the relationships between excitation and response statistics for one-dimensional structures, and then as extended to two-dimensional structures. The special features issuing from these extensions are related to simple supported rectangular and square plates excited by a stationary random force applied at a single point. Another paper discuses the relationship between the measurable bispectra and the one-dimensional energy transfer terms, and which bispectra will vanish in an isotropic turbulent flow field. One paper reviews simultaneous test procedures, including the evaluation of the probability integrals of multivariates, multivariate gamma distributions, distributions of correlated quadratic forms. Another paper analyzes two concerns regarding the random sample size N, also known as stopping time. These are if N is finite with a probability of one, or the rate that the tail probabilities in the distribution of N go to zero. Mathematicians, statisticians, students, and professors of calculus or advanced mathematics will surely appreciate the collection.
