Large scale extreme risk assessment using copulas: an application to drought events under climate change for Austria

Anna Timonina-Farkas

Droughts pose a significant challenge to farmers, insurers as well as governments around the world and the situation is expected to worsen in the future due to climate change. We present a large scale drought risk assessment approach that can be used for c ...

Seismic collapse performance of Los Angeles soft, weak, and open-front wall line woodframe structures retrofitted using different procedures

Aryan Rezaei Rad, Henry V. Burton

The Los Angeles Soft-Story Ordinance was enacted with the goal of reducing the collapse risk of woodframe buildings with soft, weak and open-front (SWOF) wall lines. Four alternative retrofit methods are permitted under the Ordinance including a SWOF-wall- ...

Seismic retrofit of steel tall buildings with bilinear oil dampers

Dimitrios Lignos

This paper presents retrofit solutions for existing tall buildings by utilizing supplemental damping devices, namely oil dampers with relief valve (bilinear oil dampers). To this end, multiple retrofit schemes are presented for a benchmark 40-story steel m ...

Comparative, collaborative, and integrative risk governance for emerging technologies

Marie-Valentine Renée Agnès Florin

Various emerging technologies challenge existing governance processes to identify, assess, and manage risk. Though the existing risk-based paradigm has been essential for assessment of many chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear technologies, a co ...

Earthquake-Induced Collapse Risk and Loss Assessment of Steel Concentrically Braced Frames

Dimitrios Lignos, Seong-Hoon Hwang

This paper quantifies the collapse risk and earthquake-induced losses for a wide range of archetype buildings with special concentrically braced frames (SCBFs). The collapse risk and expected economic losses associated with repair, demolition and collapse ...

SGAN: An Alternative Training of Generative Adversarial Networks

François Fleuret, Tatjana Chavdarova

The Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have demonstrated impressive performance for data synthesis, and are now used in a wide range of computer vision tasks. In spite of this success, they gained a reputation for being difficult to train, what results ...

Global well-posedness for the Yang-Mills equation in 4+1 dimensions: Small energy

Joachim Krieger, Daniel Tataru

We consider the hyperbolic Yang-Mills equation on the Minkowski space

\reels^{4+1}

. Our main result asserts that this problem is globally well-posed for all initial data whose energy is sufficiently small. This solves a longstanding open problem. ...
