ABSTRACT Swelling of clay‐sulfate rocks is a concern in geotechnical engineering that can damage infrastructure. In the historic town of Staufen in southwest Germany, geothermal drilling into a swellable anhydrite‐bearing clay formation resulted in water inflow and subsequent swelling, triggering ground heave and damage to more than 250 houses.

Coverage‐based rarefaction fails to quantify relative species richness
Coverage‐based rarefaction (CBR) is a high‐profile tool for assessing biodiversity that provides relative species richness estimates by leveraging the Good‐Turing index u to interpolate. In contrast to alternatives such as the Shannon and Simpson indices, CBR's main appeal is providing values in units of species. CBR is tested against a series of other

Finding Most Reliable Path With Extended Shifted Lognormal Distribution
Travel time uncertainty may cause late arrival and impose a high penalty on travelers. There is a growing interest in modeling travel time uncertainty to optimize the reliability of travel time at the path and network level. Real data analysis finds that

Common Correlation and Calibrating the Lognormal Forward Rate Model [PDF]
1997 three papers that introduced very similar lognormal diffusion processes for interest rates appeared virtuously simultaneously. These models, now commonly called the 'LIBOR models' are based on either lognormal diffusions of forward rates as in Brace,

Different demographic drivers of recovery in two adjacent populations of a long‐lived bird of prey
Understanding the demographic mechanisms underlying population decline or recovery is critical for conservation and management, yet similar population trends may arise from very different underlying processes. Comparing populations of vulnerable species groups like long‐lived raptors in different environments can reveal how species respond to change ...

Lognormal city size distribution and distance [PDF]
This paper analyses whether the size distribution of nearby cities is lognormally distributed by using a distance-based approach. We use data from three different definitions of US cities in 2010, considering all possible combinations of cities within a ...

Some Composite ExponentialPareto Models for Actuarial Prediction [PDF]
Prediction is a very important and not so easy task for an actuary. An insurance company needs predictions of the future claims in order to evaluate premiums, to assess its financial situation, probabilities of ruin, etc.
