Description

In an era defined by natural disasters, understanding the science behind rare and extreme events is vital for safety and infrastructure. From massive floods of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers to earthquakes in Tokyo and California, these phenomena follow specific scientific rules. This volume, Extreme Value Theory and Applications, provides a deep look into the mathematical principles that govern these unexpected events. Rather than relying on past records that are destined to be broken, this text explores the science of extreme value theory to better prepare for future risks. It addresses the reality of increasing wind speeds and mechanical failures through a scientific lens. This collection of proceedings from the 1993 Gaithersburg, Maryland conference serves as a foundational resource for those studying how to model and predict the most significant risks in our world.

Key Features

Covers the scientific rules behind extreme phenomena like floods, earthquakes, and high wind speeds.

Provides insights from the 1993 Conference on Extreme Value Theory and Applications in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Explores why relying solely on historical records is insufficient for modern disaster preparation.

Offers a technical perspective on modeling unexpected events through extreme value theory.

Published by Springer, a recognized name in scientific and academic literature.
