The Evolution of House Price Distribution [PDF]
Is the cross-sectional distribution of house prices close to a lognormal distribution, as is often assumed in empirical studies on house price indexes? How does the distribution evolve over time?

Graded blended cement made of graded Portland cement (PC), blast furnace slag (BFS) and fly ash (FA) is attractive for cement production. For manufacturing graded blended cement, a suitable mathematical expression should be introduced to describe the ...

A crystal PDF full‐space refinement approach integrates Bragg diffraction and total scattering to evaluate stacking faults and PDF degradation caused by point defects in ruthenium nanoparticles. This method unveils distinct size‐dependent stacking evolution in fcc‐ and hcp‐based systems, providing a unified and quantitative approach for nanoscale ...

Abstract Post‐earthquake fires pose a significant threat to urban environments, with potentially catastrophic consequences for buildings and infrastructure. To enhance understanding and mitigate these risks, this study conducts a comparative analysis of post‐earthquake fire (PEF) in two‐dimensional (2D) and three‐dimensional (3D) reinforced concrete ...

Goodbye LogNormal Distribution
AbstractThe R-scripts presented and developed in the prior chapters assumed an investment return generating process that is both static and LogNormal, via the basic function. Indeed, had this work been done in the 1970s, or perhaps the 1670s when national (versus natural) tontines were first launched, that might have been sufficient.

The lognormal distribution of metal resources in mineral deposits
For national or global resource estimation of frequencies of metals a lognormal distribution has sometimes been assumed but never adequately tested. Tests of frequencies of Cu, Zn, Pb, Ag, Au, Mo, Re, Ni, Co, Nb2O3, REE2O3, Cr2O3, Pt, Pd, Ir, Rh, and Ru,

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule

Exploring the potential of Textile Reinforced Concrete for corrosion‐insensitive retaining walls
Abstract In a context where durability concerns, particularly the corrosion of steel reinforcement, remain a critical challenge for conventional reinforced concrete structures under severe exposure, Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC) is emerging as a promising alternative.

More adequate probability distributions to represent the saturated soil hydraulic conductivity
The saturated soil hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) is one of the most relevant variables in studies of water and solute movement in the soil. Its determination in the laboratory and in the field yields high dispersion results, which could be an indication ...
