A new hybrid procedure for the definition of seismic vulnerability in Mediterranean cross-border urban areas
2016
Assessment of seismic vulnerability of urban areas provides fundamental information for activities of planning and management of emergencies. The main difficulty encountered when extending vulnerability evaluations to urban contexts is the definition of a framework of assessment appropriate for the specific characteristics of the site and providing reliable results with a reasonable duration of surveys and post-processing of data. The paper proposes a new procedure merging different typologies of information recognized on the territories investigated and for this reason called “hybrid.” Knowledge of historical events influencing urban evolution and analysis of recurrent building technologie…
Definition of Seismic Vulnerability Maps for Civil Protection Systems: The Case of Lampedusa Island
2016
The opportunity to locate and quantify the major criticalities associated to natural catastrophic events on a territory allows to plan adequate strategies and interventions by civil protection bodies involved in local and international emergencies. Seismic risk depends, most of all, on the vulnerability of buildings belonging to the urban areas. For this reason, the definition, by a deep analysis of the territory, of instruments identifying and locating vulnerability, largely favours the activities of institutions appointed to safeguard the safety of citizens. This paper proposes a procedure for the definition of vulnerability maps in terms of vulnerability indexes and critical peak ground …
On the definition of seismic vulnerability maps in cross-border Mediterranean areas
2015
The chance to locate and quantify the major risks associated to natural catastrophic events on a territory allows to plan adequate strategies and interventions by civil protection bodies involved in local and international emergencies. The seismic risk depends most of all by the vulnerability of buildings belonging to the urban areas. For this reason the definition, by a deep analysis of the territory, of instruments identifying and locating vulnerability, largely favours the activities of institutions appointed to safeguard the safety of citizens. Seismic and hydro-geological risks constitute the major component of the activities involving assistance actions carried out by civil protection…
Definizione di Mappe di Vulnerabilità Sismica per le Aree Mediterranee Transfrontaliere: Il caso di Lampedusa
2015
La possibilità di individuare e quantificare le principali criticità legate ad eventi catastrofici naturali su un territorio, consente di pianificare strategie e interventi adeguati da parte degli organismi di Protezione Civile coinvolti in emergenze locali e internazionali. Il rischio sismico dipende soprattutto dalla vulnerabilità degli edifici appartenenti alle aree urbane. La conoscenza degli scenari di rischio è dunque fondamentale per pianificare e gestire azioni di assistenza in caso di emergenza e non può prescindere dalla quantificazione e localizzazione della vulnerabilità sismica. Il presente studio propone una procedura per la definizione di mappe di vulnerabilità sismica in ter…
Kriptovalūtu volatilitātes modelēšana un prognozēšana
2018
Maģistra darbā ir veikta GARCH volatilitātes modelēšana četrām, pēc tirgus kapitalizācijas, lielākajām kriptovalūtām: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin un Ripple. Darba empīriskajā daļā, tiek veikta kriptovalūtu GARCH, TGARCH, EGARCH un PGARCH modelēšana un prognozēšana izmantojot normālo un stjūdenta t sadalījumus, aplūkojot laika periodu no 07.08.2015 līdz 27.03.2018. Labākais modelis tiek noteikts salīdzinot trīs modeļu informācijas kritērijus un modeļu prognozes novērtējumus. Kaut arī stjūdenta t sadalījuma izmantošana uzlaboja modeļu novērtējumu visām četrām kriptovalūtām, tomēr tas ne vienmēr uzlaboja modeļa prognozi. Pēc iegūtajiem rezultātiem var secināt Ripple un Bitcoin EGARCH modeļi pā…
