Reliability Analysis for Overturning and Sliding of Lacustrine Dikes
The Nezahualcoyotl's Dike Case
Chimera
An atlas of regular vines on up to 8 nodes
Vine copulas have become the standard tool for modelling complex probabilistic dependence. It has been shown that the number of regular vines grows extremely quickly with the number of nodes. Chimera is the first attempt to map the vast space of regular vines. Software for ope ...
Reliability Analysis of the Ancient Nezahualcoyotl's Dike
Investigating Failure Due to Overflow Using an Improved Hydrological Model
A submerged floating tunnel (SFT) is a structure that has been proposed as an innovative solution for waterway crossings around the world. However, to this day, no SFT has been constructed yet. One of the main reasons is that there is an insufficient insight into the structura ...
The generation of synthetic time series is important in contemporary water sciences for their wide applicability and ability to model environmental uncertainty. Hydroclimatic variables often exhibit highly skewed distributions, intermittency (that is, alternating dry and wet i ...
In past decades, the construction of a submerged floating tunnel (SFT) has been presented as an innovative solution for water crossings. One of the main challenges surrounding the design of this type of structure is the lack of data since no SFT has been constructed yet, excep ...
