A Mathematical Model for Flood Protection
Many regions in the world are protected against flooding by a dike, which may be either natural or artificial. We deal with a model for finding the optimal heights of such a dike in the future. It minimizes the sum of the investments costs for upgrading the dike in the future and the expected costs due to flooding. The model is highly nonlinear, nonconvex, and infinite-dimensional. Despite this...
متن کاملTowards a Probabilistic Model for Lexical Entailment
While modeling entailment at the lexical-level is a prominent task, addressed by most textual entailment systems, it has been approached mostly by heuristic methods, neglecting some of its important aspects. We present a probabilistic approach for this task which covers aspects such as differentiating various resources by their reliability levels, considering the length of the entailed sentence...
متن کاملComparative flood damage model assessment: towards a European approach
There is a wide variety of flood damage models in use internationally, differing substantially in their approaches and economic estimates. Since these models are being used more and more as a basis for investment and planning decisions on an increasingly large scale, there is a need to reduce the uncertainties involved and develop a harmonised European approach, in particular with respect to th...
متن کاملTowards a Base Model for UML and OCL Verification
Modelling languages such as UML and OCL are more and more used in early stages of system design. These languages o er a huge set of constructs. As a consequence, existing veri cation engines only support a restricted subset of them. In this work, we propose an approach using model transformations to unify di erent description means within a so called base model. In the course of this transforma...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
