Universal option valuation using quadrature methods

AD Andricopoulos, M Widdicks, PW Duck… - Journal of Financial …, 2003 - Elsevier
This paper proposes and develops a novel, simple, widely applicable numerical approach
for option pricing based on quadrature methods. Though in some ways similar to lattice or …

On the linear stability of compressible plane Couette flow

PW Duck, G Erlebacher, MY Hussaini - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1994 - cambridge.org
The linear stability of compressible plane Couette flow is investigated. The appropriate
basic velocity and temperature distributions are perturbed by a small-amplitude normal-mode …

Extending quadrature methods to value multi-asset and complex path dependent options

…, M Widdicks, DP Newton, PW Duck - Journal of Financial …, 2007 - Elsevier
The exposition of the quadrature (QUAD) method (Andricopoulos, Widdicks, Duck, and
Newton, 2003. Universal option valuation using quadrature methods. Journal of Financial …

On the interaction between the shock wave attached to a wedge and freestream disturbances

PW Duck, DG Lasseigne, MY Hussaini - Theoretical and Computational …, 1995 - Springer
We present a study of the interaction of small amplitude, unsteady, freestream disturbances
with a shock wave induced by a wedge in supersonic flow. These disturbances may be …

An improved fixed-rate mortgage valuation methodology with interacting prepayment and default options

NJ Sharp, DP Newton, PW Duck - The Journal of Real Estate Finance and …, 2008 - Springer
This paper considers in detail a realistic mortgage valuation model (including the potential
for early prepayment and the risk of default), based on stochastic house-price and interest-…

The Black‐Scholes Equation Revisited: Asymptotic Expansions And Singular Perturbations

M Widdicks, PW Duck… - Mathematical …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
In this paper, novel singular perturbation techniques are applied to price European, American,
and barrier options. Employment of these methods leads to a significant simplification of …

The effects of freestream pressure gradient on a corner boundary layer

MR Dhanak, PW Duck - … of the Royal Society of London …, 1997 - royalsocietypublishing.org
The incompressible boundary layer in the corner formed by two intersecting perpendicular
semi-infinite planes is investigated; the freestream flow, aligned with the corner, is of the form …

The effect of three-dimensional freestream disturbances on the supersonic flow past a wedge

PW Duck, DG Lasseigne, MY Hussaini - Physics of Fluids, 1997 - pubs.aip.org
… The aim of the present paper is to extend the ideas of Duck et al.to three-dimensional
disturbances; indeed, little three-dimensional work of this type appears to have been undertaken in …

The long range persistence of wakes behind a row of roughness elements

ME Goldstein, A Sescu, PW Duck… - Journal of fluid …, 2010 - cambridge.org
We consider a periodic array of relatively small roughness elements whose spanwise
separation is of the order of the local boundary-layer thickness and construct a local asymptotic …

Algebraic/transcendental disturbance growth behind a row of roughness elements

ME Goldstein, A Sescu, PW Duck… - Journal of Fluid …, 2011 - cambridge.org
This paper is a continuation of the work begun in Goldstein et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 644,
2010, p. 123), who constructed an asymptotic high-Reynolds-number solution for the flow over …
