The extremes of random walks in random sceneries

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse the behaviour of the extremes of a random walk in a random scenery, where the random walk is assumed to be in the domain of attraction of a stable law, and the scenery is in the case of an extreme value distribution.

Increases in the extreme rainfall events: Using the Weibull distribution

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed the use of the Weibull distribution for the evaluation of extreme events in precipitation in the western part of Mexico and provided a simple approach in showing the trends in extreme precipitation.

Estimation of the finite right endpoint in the gumbel domain

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple estimator for the finite right endpoint of a distribution function in the Gumbel max-domain of attraction is proposed, and large sample properties such as consistency and the asymptotic distribution are derived.

Effect of temperature loading on the performance of a PC bridge in Oklahoma: Reliability analysis

TL;DR: This paper focuses on the structural reliability analysis on the temperature loading action in accordance with AASHTO LRFD specification, and establishes a three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) model, utilized for probabilistic analyses to assess the temperature load effects.
