Measuring Contagion of Subprime Crisis Based on MVMQ-CAViaR Method by Wuyi Ye, Kebing Luo, Shaofu Du

“…Comparing with the situations in precrisis period, if the estimated coefficients become significant or market risk increases during the crisis, it implies the existence of contagion from the angle of coefficient significance or risk. The findings show that the concerned coefficients are significant or the market risks of the tested countries increase during the crisis except for China. …”

Research on the Safety Thickness of Tunnel Outburst Prevention in Water-Rich Fault Fracture Zone Based on Janssen’s Theory by Zuliang Zhong, Yapeng Li, Xiaohan Zhou

“…The results show that: (1) the calculation formula of outburst prevention thickness proposed in this paper is more perfect and shows good prediction effect for deep- and shallow-buried tunnels; (2) the greater the angle α between tunnel axis and fault zone and the dip θ of fault fracture zone, the smaller the critical safety thickness of outburst prevention and the safer it is for tunnel construction; (3) when the fault fracture zone inclines inward relative to the tunnel face, the gravity of the rock mass in the fault zone will lead to an increase in the safety thickness of outburst prevention, and reinforcement measures should be taken during actual construction.…”

Propagation Model in Indoor and Outdoor for the LTE Communications by Sun-Kuk Noh, DongYou Choi

“…Previous studies on the development of propagation models considering a propagation environment in the existing microwave band have been mainly focused on analyzing the propagation characteristics with regard to large-scale factors such as path losses, delay propagation, and angle diffusions. In this paper, we investigated the concept of spatial and time changes ratios in the measurement of wave propagations and measured RSRP of Long Term Evolution (LTE) signals at three locations considering the time rate of 1% and 50%. …”
