Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3264-3284, 25 October 2026.ABSTRACT Conventional single intensity measure (IM) fragility approaches with simplified component dependency assumptions overlook the progressive damage accumulation and evolving inter‐component correlations that govern system behavior under mainshock‐aftershock (MSAS) loading.

Something New, Something Old: Parametric Models for the Size of Distribution of Income
, 1997 Two new probability density functions (generalized beta and quadratic elasticity) are considered as models for the size distribution of income. The generalized beta distribution nests the generalized beta of the first and second kind, generalized gamma ...

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 13, Page 3338-3362, 25 October 2026.ABSTRACT Seismic fragility assessment of reinforced concrete (RC) bridges exposed to corrosive environments must reliably capture time‐dependent deterioration impacts. Climate change compounds this challenge through nonstationary temperature and humidity variations that accelerate bridge corrosion.

Inequality decomposition using the Gibbs output of a Mixture of lognormal distributions [PDF]
In this paper we model the income distribution using a Bayesian approach and a mixture of lognormal densities. The size of the mixture is determined by Chib (1995)'s method.

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, Volume 345, Issue 8, Page 832-849, October 2026.ABSTRACT Bats have unique immunological characteristics among vertebrates. Understanding how the immune system responds during the life cycle of bat populations is crucial for grasping how their defenses against infection vary during critical life events.

CPT: Pharmacometrics &Systems Pharmacology, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2026.ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, the number of antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) entering the oncology market has surged. By contrast, the clinical use of immunoliposomes—nanoparticles that also employ antibodies as targeting agents (i.e., antibody–nanoconjugates, ANCs)—has yet to receive approval.

Quality and Reliability Engineering International, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 3606-3619, October 2026.ABSTRACT We propose a practical procedure to quantify the time varying influence of parameters on hazard functions for power series compounded lifetime models. The procedure combines likelihood based fitting with a two stage sensitivity analysis and applies to a range of baselines and compounding laws.

Testing Special Cases of the GB2 Distribution: Comment and an Extension
We extend earlier work (Griffiths and Hill, 2025) by pointing out that a score test developed by Prentice (1975) for testing whether a normal distribution is an adequate representation of the log of a GB2 random variable is suitable for testing whether a

Calibration of Priors for Bayesian Model‐Based Dose‐Finding Trial Designs With Joint Outcomes
Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 23-24, October 2026.ABSTRACT The goal of dose‐finding oncology trials is to assess the safety of anti‐cancer treatments across multiple doses and to recommend dose(s) for subsequent trials. As patients' outcomes accrue, trialists dynamically recommend new doses for further investigation during the trial.

Coarsened Data in Small Area Estimation: A Bayesian Two‐Part Model for Mapping Smoking Behavior
Statistics in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 23-24, October 2026.ABSTRACT Estimating health indicators for specific population subgroups is a recurring challenge in epidemiology and public health. When survey data are used, small area estimation (SAE) methods can improve precision by borrowing strength across domains.
