Extreme Value Theory with Applications to Natural Hazards: From Statistical Theory to Industrial Practice
ISBN: 9783030749446 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This richly illustrated book describes statistical extreme value theory for the quantification of natural hazards, such as strong winds, floods and rainfall, and discusses an interdisciplinary approach to allow the theoretical methods to be applied. The approach consists of a number of steps: data selection and correction, non-stationary theory (to account for trends due to climate change), and selecting appropriate estimation techniques based on both decision-theoretic features (e.g., Bayesian theory), empirical robustness and a valid treatment of uncertainties. It also examines and... This richly illustrated book describes statistical extreme value theory for the quantification of natural hazards, such as strong winds, floods and... |

Autobats and 3D Music: New Approaches to Imaging Earthquake Rupture Behaviors
ISBN: 9789811655869 / Angielski / Miękka Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book presents the kinematic earthquake rupture studies from moment tenor to spatial-temporal rupture imaging. For real-time seismic hazard monitoring, the new stable automatic moment tensor (AutoBATS) algorithm is developed and implemented for the real-time MT reports by the Taiwan Earthquake Science Information System (TESIS). In order to understand the rupture behavior of the 2013 Mw 8.3 Okhotsk deep earthquake sequence, the 3D MUltiple SIgnal Classification Back Projection (MUSIC BP) with P and pP phases is applied. The combined P- and pP-wave BP imaging of the mainshock shows two... This book presents the kinematic earthquake rupture studies from moment tenor to spatial-temporal rupture imaging.
