The complementary exponential power lifetime model
(Elsevier B.V., 2011-03-01)
In this paper we propose a new lifetime distribution which can handle bathtub-shaped unimodal increasing and decreasing hazard rate functions The model has three parameters and generalizes the exponential power distribution ...

Lahar simulation at active volcanoes of the Southern Andes: implications for hazard assessment
(Springer, 2015)
Lahars are catastrophic events that have the potential to cause the loss of life
and damage to infrastructure over inhabited areas. Consequently the zoning of associated
hazards is a critical task. We evaluated the lahar ...
Determining fuel moisture thresholds to assess wildfire hazard: A contribution to an operational early warning system
(Public Library of Science, 2018-10-04)
Fuel moisture content (FMC) is an important fuel property for assessing wildfire hazard, since it influences fuel flammability and fire behavior. The relationship between FMC and fire activity differs among land covers and ...
Multi-Criteria Spatial Analysis of Hazardous Materials Transportation
(2014-01-01)
The development of the world economy increases trade, thereby inducing a large amount of goods transportation. In many developing countries, such as Brazil, the transportation system is predominated by the highway mode. ...
Methodological aspects for modeling the environmental risk of transporting hazardous materials by road
(2016-05-01)
The main objective of this paper is to establish the procedures necessary to the development of a model for the environmental risk assessment of accidents involving Transporting Hazardous Materials by Road (THMR). Quantifying ...
Natural Hazards in Patrimonial Geosites on the Southern Coast of Atacama
(PONTIFICA UNIV CATOLICA CHILE, INST GEOGRAFIA, 2010)
The southern coast of Atacama Desert, between the city of Chanaral (26 degrees 20' S) and the Copiapo River, (27 degrees 19' S), presents a great diversity of shapes, types of rocks and fossil deposits. Some of the most ...
