Swedish Language
Swedish ( ) is a North Germanic language spoken predominantly in Sweden and in parts of Finland. It has at least 10 million native speakers, the fourth most spoken Germanic language and the first among any other of its type in the Nordic countries overall. Swedish, like the other Nordic languages, is a descendant of Old Norse, the common language of the Germanic peoples living in Scandinavia during the Viking Era. It is largely mutually intelligible with Norwegian and Danish, although the degree of mutual intelligibility is largely dependent on the dialect and accent of the speaker. Written Norwegian and Danish are usually more easily understood by Swedish speakers than the spoken languages, due to the differences in tone, accent, and intonation. Standard Swedish, spoken by most Swedes, is the national language that evolved from the Central Swedish dialects in the 19th century and was well established by the beginning of the 20th century. While distinct regional varieties ...

Falsen (noble Family)
Falsen, also ''de Falsen'', is a Danish and Norwegian noble family. History The family descends from Falle Pedersen (1625–1702), who lived on the farm Østrup on Sealand, Denmark. The Falsen family share the same roots as the famous Scanian family Weibullbr> Falle Pedersen's son Enevold Falsen (1686–1769) was Mayor of Copenhagen. He was in 1758 ennobled under the name ''de Falsen''. His son Christian Magnus de Falsen (1719–1799) became a justitiarius in Akershus, Norway. He was the father of the author and the official Enevold de Falsen (1755–1808). Enevold was the father of the statesman Christian Magnus Falsen (‘Father of the Constitution’), County Governor Carl Valentin Falsen, and Rear Admiral Jørgen Conrad de Falsen.

Jutland
Jutland ( da, Jylland ; german: Jütland ; ang, Ēota land ), known anciently as the Cimbric or Cimbrian Peninsula ( la, Cimbricus Chersonesus; da, den Kimbriske Halvø, links=no or ; german: Kimbrische Halbinsel, links=no), is a peninsula of Northern Europe that forms the continental portion of Denmark and part of northern Germany. The names are derived from the Jutes and the Cimbri, respectively. As with the rest of Denmark, Jutland's terrain is flat, with a slightly elevated ridge down the central parts and relatively hilly terrains in the east. West Jutland is characterised by open lands, heaths, plains, and peat bogs, while East Jutland is more fertile with lakes and lush forests. Southwest Jutland is characterised by the Wadden Sea, a large unique international coastal region stretching through Denmark, Germany, and the Netherlands. Geography Jutland is a peninsula bounded by the North Sea to the west, the Skagerrak to the north, the Kattegat and Baltic Sea to the ...

Skåne
Scania, also known by its native name of Skåne (, ), is the southernmost of the historical provinces (''landskap'') of Sweden. Located in the south tip of the geographical region of Götaland, the province is roughly conterminous with Skåne County, created in 1997. Like the other former provinces of Sweden, Scania still features in colloquial speech and in cultural references, and can therefore not be regarded as an archaic concept. Within Scania there are 33 municipalities that are autonomous within the Skåne Regional Council. Scania's largest city, Malmö, is the third-largest city in Sweden, as well as the fifth-largest in Scandinavia. To the north, Scania borders the former provinces of Halland and Småland, to the northeast Blekinge, to the east and south the Baltic Sea, and to the west Öresund. Since 2000, a road and railway bridge, the Öresund Bridge, bridges the Sound and connects Scania with Denmark. Scania forms part of the transnational Øresund Region. From n ...

Curt Weibull
Curt Weibull (19 August 1886 – 10 November 1991) was a Swedish historian, educator and author. Biography Curt Hugo Johannes Weibull was born in Lund, Sweden. He was a member of the noted Swedish Weibull family. He was the son of professor Martin Weibull (1835–1902) and brother of historian Lauritz Weibull (1873–1960). He and his brother both attended the University of Lund. The Weibull brothers have been characterized as influential in raising the scientific standards of history research in Sweden and Denmark. Curt Weibull was a professor of history at the University of Gothenburg from 1927–1953 and its rector from 1936 to 1946. In 1928 he and his brother, Lauritz Weibull, initiated the periodical ''Scandia''. Together they are known for having introduced a critical theory of history to Swedish historical research, inspired by German historian Leopold von Ranke (1795–1886). Weibull was an important mentor to noted Swedish historian Erik Lönnroth (1910–2002) ...

Lauritz Ulrik Absalon Weibull (2 April 1873 – 2 December 1960) was a Swedish professor and historian. Biography He was born in Lund, Sweden, as the son of history professor Martin Weibull and the brother of historian Curt Weibull. He enrolled at the University of Lund in 1892, completed his B.A. 1892, his licentiate degree in 1899 and defended his dissertation and received a docentship the same year.

Waloddi Weibull
Ernst Hjalmar Waloddi Weibull (18 June 1887 – 12 October 1979) was a Swedish civil engineer, materials scientist, and applied mathematician. The Weibull distribution is named after him. Education and career Weibull joined the Swedish Coast Guard in 1905 as a midshipman. He moved up the ranks with promotion to sublieutenant in 1907, Captain in 1916 and Major in 1940. While in the coast guard he took courses at the Royal Institute of Technology. In 1924 he graduated and became a full professor. He obtained his doctorate from the University of Uppsala in 1932. He was employed in Swedish and German industry as a consulting engineer. In 1914, while on expeditions to the Mediterranean, the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean on the research ship ''Albatross'', Weibull wrote his first paper on the propagation of explosive waves. He developed the technique of using explosive charges to determine the type of ocean bottom sediments and their thickness. The same technique is still used today ...

Exponentiated Weibull Distribution
In statistics, the exponentiated Weibull family of probability distributions was introduced by Mudholkar and Srivastava (1993) as an extension of the Weibull family obtained by adding a second shape parameter. The cumulative distribution function for the exponentiated Weibull distribution is :F(x;k,\lambda; \alpha) = \left 1- e^ \right\alpha \, for ''x'' > 0, and ''F''(''x''; ''k''; λ; ''α'') = 0 for ''x''  0 is the first ''shape parameter'', α > 0 is the second shape parameter and λ > 0 is the ''scale parameter'' of the distribution. The density is :f(x;k,\lambda; \alpha) = \alpha \frac \left frac\right \left - e^ \right e^ \, There are two important special cases: * ''α'' = 1 gives the Weibull distribution; * ''k'' = 1 gives the exponentiated exponential distribution. Background The family of distributions accommodates unimodal, bathtub shaped* and monotone failure rates. A similar distributio ...

Q-Weibull Distribution
In statistics, the ''q''-Weibull distribution is a probability distribution that generalizes the Weibull distribution and the Lomax distribution (Pareto Type II). It is one example of a Tsallis distribution. Characterization Probability density function The probability density function of a ''q''-Weibull random variable is: : f(x;q,\lambda,\kappa) = \begin (2-q)\frac\left(\frac\right)^ e_q(-(x/\lambda)^)& x\geq0 ,\\ 0 & x 0 is the ''scale parameter'' of the distribution and :e_q(x) = \begin \exp(x) & \textq=1, \\ pt +(1-q)x & \textq \ne 1 \text 1+(1-q)x >0, \\ pt0^ & \textq \ne 1\text1+(1-q)x \le 0, \\ pt\end is the ''q''-exponential Cumulative distribution function The cumulative distribution function of a ''q''-Weibull random variable is: :\begin1- e_^ & x\geq0\\ 0 & x<0\end where :\lambda' = :q' =
