Regional parent flood frequency distributions in Europe – Part 2: Climate and scale controls [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2014 This study aims to better understand the effect of catchment scale and climate on the statistical properties of regional flood frequency distributions. A database of L-moment ratios of annual maximum series (AMS) of peak discharges from Austria, Italy

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Materials, 2023 Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is a floating platform that generates electricity from seawater heat. The cold water pipe (CWP) used in OTEC has a length of 1,000 m and a diameter of 10 m, making it susceptible to bending loads from ocean currents.

The Partial L-Moment of the Four Kappa Distribution
Emerging Science Journal, 2023 Statistical analysis of extreme events such as flood events is often carried out to predict large return period events. The behaviour of extreme events not only involves heavy-tailed distributions but also skewed distributions, similar to the four-parameter Kappa distribution (K4D).

Multivariate L-moment homogeneity test [PDF]
, 2007 Several types of hydrological events are described with multivariate characteristics (droughts, floods, rain storms, etc.). When carrying out a multivariate regional frequency analysis for these events it is important to jointly consider all these ...

Curved bridges live load bending moment distribution using straight and curved girders
Revista IBRACON de Estruturas e Materiais, 2021 : The present study focuses on comparative parametric analysis of curved precast concrete bridges using straight and curved I-girders. The live load bending moment distribution for girders was studied using the bridge curvature and its relationship with ...

A Characterization of Power Method Transformations through L-Moments
Journal of Probability and Statistics, 2011 Power method polynomial transformations are commonly used for simulating continuous nonnormal distributions with specified moments. However, conventional moment-based estimators can (a) be substantially biased, (b) have high variance, or (c) be ...

Development of L-moment based models for extreme flood events [PDF]
, 2009 Accurate estimation of flood frequency is needed in many hydraulic designs such as dams, culverts and urban drainage systems. Different approaches were presented which use conventional moments to extract order statistics such as mean, standard deviation,
