Post-earthquake performance recovery models for shield tunnels based on semi-Markov processes: development and application

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
To address the complexity and uncertainty inherent in the post-earthquake damage state recovery process of shield tunnels, a method for establishing performance recovery models based on semi-Markov processes is proposed, enabling quantitative assessment ...

Applied semi-Markov process

open access: yes, 2005
Applied Semi-Markov Processes aims to give to the reader the tools necessary to apply semi-Markov processes in real-life problems. The book is self-contained and, starting from a low level of probability concepts, gradually brings the reader to a deep ...

Nonlinear Spatial–Temporal Modeling of Land-Use Change Using a Hybrid ANN–Cellular Automata Framework in a Semi-Arid Mediterranean Watershed

open access: yesGeomatics
Land-use and land cover (LULC) change is a key driver of environmental dynamics in semi-arid Mediterranean watersheds, strongly influencing hydrological processes, soil degradation, and ecosystem stability.

Quality Performance Criterion Model for Distributed Automated Control Systems Based on Markov Processes for Smart Grid

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This paper addresses the problem of decision-making support for the modernization of distributed automated control systems (ACS) in power engineering by proposing an integral quality criterion that combines similarity-driven Markov process modeling with ...

Modelling the profitability of credit cards by Markov decision processes

open access: yes, 2009
This paper derives a model for the profitability of credit cards, which allow lenders to find the optimal dynamic credit limit policy. The model is a Markov decision process, where the states of the system are based on the borrower's behavioural score ...

Stochastic-based pavement performance and deterioration models: A review of techniques and applications

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal
Infrastructure assets, such as pavements, naturally deteriorate over time due to traffic loads, environmental conditions, and other external factors. Traditionally, deterministic models have been employed to predict performance, aiding in work planning ...

SEMI-MARKOV DECISION PROCESSES AND THEIR APPLICATIONS IN REPLACEMENT MODELS

open access: yesJournal of the Operations Research Society of Japan, 1985
We consider the problem of minimizing the long-run average expected cost per unit time in a semi-Markov decision process with arbitrary state and action space. Using the idea of successive approximations, sufficient conditions for the existence of an optimal stationary policy are given.
