Poverty, Income Distribution and CGE Modeling: Does the Functional Form of Distribution Matter? [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper, we provide an overview of approaches used to model income distribution and poverty in CGE models. CGE models have started to use income distribution functional forms such as the lognormal, Pareto, beta distribution and Kernel non ...

Time‐Variant Seismic Fragility of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Piers Considering Degradation Phenomena

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aging and environmental exposure progressively deteriorate the physical and mechanical properties of construction materials, thereby affecting the safety and functionality of existing infrastructure. Corrosion of steel rebars in reinforced concrete structures is widely acknowledged as the most common and detrimental degradation phenomenon, as ...

MENENTUKAN HARGA KONTRAK BERJANGKA NILAI TUKAR RUPIAH TERHADAP DOLLAR AS MENGGUNAKAN DISTRIBUSI LOGNORMAL

open access: yesE-Jurnal Matematika, 2015
The purpose of this study is to determine the fair price of a futures contract for the IDR (Rupiah) against the USD using lognormal distribution simulation. This result is compared with interest rate parity theorem.

A Study on Zografos-Balakrishnan Log-Normal Distribution

open access: yesRevstat Statistical Journal
In this article, we studied a generalization of the log-normal distribution called Zografos-Balakrishnan log-normal distribution and investigate its various important properties and functions including moments, quantile function, various reliability ...

Species traits shape the relationship between local and regional species abundance distributions

open access: yesEcosphere, 2019
The species abundance distribution (SAD) depicts the relative abundance of species within a community, which is a key concept in ecology. Here, we test whether SADs are more likely to either follow a lognormal‐like or follow a logseries‐like distribution

Log-moment estimators of the Nakagami-lognormal distribution

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, 2019
In this paper, estimators of the Nakagami-lognormal (NL) distribution based on the method of log-moments have been derived and thoroughly analyzed. Unlike maximum likelihood (ML) estimators, the log-moment estimators of the NL distribution are obtained ...

Size Distributions for All Cities: Lognormal and q-exponential functions [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper analyses in detail the features offered by a function which is practically new to Urban Economics, the q-exponential, in describing city size distributions. We highlight two contributions.

Directionality Scaling of Scalar and Vector Ground Motion Intensity Measures

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The azimuthal directionality of earthquake ground‐motion intensity measures (IMs) is conventionally described by the ratios between the orientation‐independent maximum (RotD100) and median (RotD50) values over the horizontal plane. This study presents a refined characterization of the directionality of 31 IMs, including spectral accelerations (
