Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

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 ...

Uneven Impacts of Seawall Heightening on Tsunami Risk Reduction under Rising Sea Levels: Probabilistic Scenarios from the Japan Trench

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbated by climate change have prompted adaptation measures, including seawall heightening, which is an effective approach to protecting coastal areas. However, the combined effect of rising sea levels and tsunamis can create a compound coastal hazard, in which long‐term sea level rise amplifies the impact of tsunamis.

On Modelling Insurance Data by Using a Generalized Lognormal Distribution || Sobre la modelización de datos de seguros usando una distribución lognormal generalizada [PDF]

open access: yesRevista de Métodos Cuantitativos para la Economía y la Empresa, 2014
In this paper, a new heavy-tailed distribution is used to model data with a strong right tail, as often occurs in practical situations. The distribution proposed is derived from the lognormal distribution, by using the Marshall and Olkin procedure.

Non-destructive one-shot device test under step-stress experiment with lognormal lifetime distribution

open access: yes
2023 Acuerdos transformativos CRUEDealing with censored data is an important concern in reliability and survival analysis. Non-destructive one-shot devices are an extreme case of interval censoring, wherein we only know if a device has failed or not ...
