ABSTRACT This article provides observational evidence for the direct relation between current sheets, multifractality and fully developed turbulence in the solar wind. In order to study the role of current sheets in extreme-value statistics in the solar wind, the use of magnetic volatility is proposed. The statistical fits of extreme events are based on the peaks-over-threshold (POT) modelling of Cluster 1 magnetic field data. The results reveal that current sheets are the main factor responsible for the behaviour of the tail of the magnetic volatility distributions. In the presence of current sheets, the distributions display a positive shape parameter, which means that the distribution is unbounded in the right tail. Thus the appearance of larger current sheets is to be expected and magnetic reconnection events are more likely to occur. The volatility analysis confirms that current sheets are responsible for the −5/3 Kolmogorov power spectra and the increase in multifractality and non-Gaussianity in solar wind statistics. In the absence of current sheets, the power spectra display a −3/2 Iroshnikov–Kraichnan law. The implications of these findings for the understanding of intermittent turbulence in the solar wind are discussed.

The two maps of intense rainfall in the Hydrological Atlas of Switzerland (1992, 1997) are compared to data of an evaluation of extreme value statistics. The results are transferred to recommendations for practioners.

In this study, the fatigue characteristics of aluminum alloys and mechanical components were investigated. To evaluate the effect of forging, fatigue specimens with the same chemical compositions were prepared from billets and forged mechanical components. To evaluate the cleanliness of the aluminum alloys, the cross-sectional area of specimens was observed, and the maximum inclusion sizes were obtained using extreme value statistics. Rotary bending fatigue tests were performed, and the fracture surfaces of the specimens were analyzed. The results show that the forging process not only elevated the fatigue strength but also reduced the scatter of the fatigue life of aluminum alloys. The fatigue characteristics of C-specimens were obtained to develop finite-element method (FEM) models. With the intrinsic fatigue properties and strain–life approach, the FEM analysis results agreed well with the test results.
