Tiers of joy? Reserve tiering and bank behavior in a negative-rate environment

Andreas Fuster

Negative interest rate regimes typically involve reserve tiering to exempt a portion of bank reserves from negative rates. We study the effects on bank behavior of a large and unanticipated change in reserve tiering by the Swiss National Bank that generate ...

Automatic and high-precision microseismic monitoring of progressive failure prior, during, and after tunnel excavation

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion, Seyyedmaalek Momeni, Christophe Nussbaum

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring is commonly used to inspect the health of a structure continuously. During fracture processes elastic waves of AE are created and emitted, and sensors can capture these waves. The acquired signals can be processed to track ...
