Kinematic Modeling of Pyroclastic Flows Produced by Gravitational Dome Collapse at Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat

Hooper, Donald; Mattioli, Glen - In: Natural Hazards 23 (2001) 1, pp. 65-86

Volcanic activity commenced 18 July 1995 at SoufriereHills volcano and has led to the creation of a newlava dome, which has repeatedly collapsed between 1996and 1999 resulting in highly mobile pyroclastic flows. The majority of associated pyroclastic flow phenomenaare consistent with initiation...

Electronic specific heat properties in one-dimensional quasicrystals

Mauriz, P.W; Albuquerque, E.L; Vasconcelos, M.S - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 294 (2001) 3, pp. 403-414

In this paper we investigate the thermodynamical properties of electrons in one-dimensional quasiperiodic potentials, arranged in accordance with the pure and generalized Fibonacci sequences. The sequences are described in terms of a series of generations that obey peculiar recursion relations,...

An Algorithm for Estimating Multivariate Catastrophe Models: GEMCAT II

Lange, Rense; Oliva, Terence A.; McDade, Sean R. - In: Studies in Nonlinear Dynamics & Econometrics 4 (2000) 3

Following the framework in Oliva et al. 1987, GEMCAT II implements a flexible method to test catastrophe models containing multivariate (i.e., latent) variables while allowing for a priori variable specifications. The system uses an efficient hybrid minimization algorithm combining the Downhill...

Redesigning check‐processing operations using animated computer simulation

Verma, Rohit; Gibbs, Gerald D.; Gilgan, Richard J. - In: Business Process Management Journal 6 (2000) 1, pp. 54-64

This paper describes the steps taken by a major commercial bank in the USA to redesign a critical function within its check‐processing operation. Animated simulation models of the current and new process were developed to understand the relationship between process parameters, waiting times,...
