Figure 2

A distribution of averages. In Figure 1c, each sample path ω(t) was evaluated at t1 to obtain a value of X A . The average proposed in [3] is the mean of the distribution of these X A values. In this figure, the average value ω ¯ MathType@MTEF@5@5@+=feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfKttLearuWrP9MDH5MBPbIqV92AaeXatLxBI9gBaebbnrfifHhDYfgasaacH8akY=wiFfYdH8Gipec8Eeeu0xXdbba9frFj0=OqFfea0dXdd9vqai=hGuQ8kuc9pgc9s8qqaq=dirpe0xb9q8qiLsFr0=vr0=vr0dc8meaabaqaciaacaGaaeqabaqabeGadaaakeaaiiGacuWFjpWDgaqeaaaa@2E98@ of each sample path is computed using the formula ω ¯ = 1 t 1 + t 2 ∫ 0 t 1 + t 2 ω ( t ) d t MathType@MTEF@5@5@+=feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfKttLearuWrP9MDH5MBPbIqV92AaeXatLxBI9gBaebbnrfifHhDYfgasaacH8akY=wiFfYdH8Gipec8Eeeu0xXdbba9frFj0=OqFfea0dXdd9vqai=hGuQ8kuc9pgc9s8qqaq=dirpe0xb9q8qiLsFr0=vr0=vr0dc8meaabaqaciaacaGaaeqabaqabeGadaaakeaaiiGacuWFjpWDgaqeaGGaaiab+1da9maalaaabaGaeGymaedabaGaemiDaq3aaSbaaSqaaiabigdaXaqabaGccqGHRaWkcqWG0baDdaWgaaWcbaGaeGOmaidabeaaaaGcdaWdXaqaaiab=L8a3naabmaabaGaemiDaqhacaGLOaGaayzkaaaaleaacqaIWaamaeaacqWG0baDdaWgaaadbaGaeGymaedabeaaliabgUcaRiabdsha0naaBaaameaacqaIYaGmaeqaaaqdcqGHRiI8aOGaemizaqMaemiDaqhaaa@4762@ .
