Buildings consumed about 40% of primary energy and 70% of the electricity in the US It is
well known that most buildings lose a portion of their desired and designed energy efficiency …

Generalizing distributions is an old practice and has ever been considered as precious as
many other practical problems in statistics. It simply started with defining different …

Many generalised distributions exist for modelling data with vastly diverse characteristics.
However, very few of these generalisations of the normal distribution have shape …

Tukey-type distributions (a generalization of Tukey's gh (normal)-distribution) are attractive
for a broad spectrum of applications since they can explicitly model flexible skewness and …

This study proposes a failure analysis framework to enhance the building operations. A
literature review was conducted for fault modeling and the fault mode and effect analysis …

Operational risk (OpRisk) is increasingly being considered an important financial risk. In
recent years, it has been given more consideration due to economically disturbing events …

Propose use kurtosis divided by skewness squared as shape factor, and use the global or
conditional minimum/maximum of this shape factor for selecting and differentiating …

This thesis presents a novel approach for the construction of quantile processes, governing
the stochastic dynamics of quantiles in continuous time. Two constructions are proposed …
