## Abstract An improved seismic hazard model for use in performanceβbased earthquake engineering is presented. The model is an improved approximation from the soβcalled βpower lawβ model, which is linear in logβlog space. The mathematics of the model and uncertainty incorporation is briefly discuss

This paper deals with the statistical inference from doubly censored data on the incidence of thyropathy in a group of liquidators of the Chernobyl accident with special emphasis on the long-term risk assessment. In this study, all sample observations are either left or right censored. The prime obj
In this paper, we investigate a probabilistic local majority polling game on weighted directed graphs, keeping an application to the distributed agreement problem in mind. We formulate the game as a Markov chain, where an absorbing state corresponds to a system configuration that an agreement is ach
This paper presents an alternative approach for mathematical modeling of an oscillating system with an irrational restoring force. Such a model corresponds to the oscillation of an elastic wire or string. A generalized Senator-Bapat perturbation technique is employed to deal with this nonlinear syst
