	H-Net Review: Rose Gatens on Emil J. Gumbel, Weimar German Pacifist and Professor
		Emil J. Gumbel was one of the most widely known and outspoken critics of German militarism and political violence during the Weimar era.
		Gumbel, one of the most prominent publicists for pacifist internationalism in Germany, came to the movement as a young veteran in 1915.
		Gumbel's political biography is an important chapter in the larger history of pacifist opposition to twentieth-century warfare.

		Statistician and left-wing pacifist Emil Julius Gumbel (1891–1966) was among the most outspoken critics of the right wing’s campaign of organized assassination.
		The collection documents the right-wing persecution of Gumbel and other critics of German militarism in the 1920s and chronicles the social and political conditions that fostered nationalism and spawned Nazism.
		The collection also includes research reports prepared by Gumbel on the Nazis for the Office of Strategic Services after fleeing to the U.S. Here is a fresh source for students of modern German history, including the history of the Weimar Republic, right-wing movements, and early Nazism.

	Heat Exchanger IRIS Wall Thickness And Gumbel Smallest Distribution
		A plot of the Y-axis of the Gumbel distribution is the same as for a Weibull distribution.
		The Weibull plot is well known for representing the “weakest link” (not to be confused with the tag line for a current television program where contestants are informed they are “the weakest link” because of their inferior performance).
		The conditions described in BS 5760 seems appropriate for the condition of a heat exchanger where the tubes are functionally in series as any tube failure causes the heat exchanger system to fail and the data for wall thickness represents the minimum value in each tube.

	Emil J. Gumbel (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		As a Jew with left-wing socialist and democratic sensibilities, he was exiled to France and later America.
		A courageous man, Gumbel spoke out passionately against the Nazis and came to symbolize a 'one-man party' at the center of controversy in German academia.
		His intellectual and moral vigor never waned, and despite his significant scientific contributions, it is his legacy of political ideology that endures for later generations to learn from.

	Pudentilla's Perspective
		At Heidelberg the event which exemplified this development was the Gumbel Affair (Fall Gumbel), which rocked the University for two years and created a tense, antisemitic atmosphere, which was aggravated by similar "cases" in other universities, such as those of Hans Nawiski, Theodor Lessing, Ernst Cohen and several others.
		Emil Gumbel, who was of Jewish origin, was a Socialist and pacifist who openly expressed his convictions.
		The Nazi and the nationalistic factions in the Student Union, as well as the right-wing political parties in Baden, attempted to turn this controversy into a political and ideological crisis, thus challenging a traditionally sacred principle of German academia - the complete separation of the State from academic affairs.

	Houston Flood Data and Gumbel Largest Distributions Predict 100 Year Flood Levels
		The Gumbel largest value cumulative distribution is expressed in Figure 1 for the cumulative distribution function (CDF).
		Gumbel provided a mechanism called the “return period” to answer questions about where would the 100-year floods be positioned on the probability plot.
		The value of the return period has an interesting interpretation as the sample size of additional observations required have a 50% chance of observing another value equal to or larger than the value of x on the trend line.

		Following the assassination of Walther Rathenau he refused to half mast the national flag on the institute, thereby provoking its storming by communist students.
		With the advent of the third reich the University, just like all other German universities, lost many of its professors (among them Emil Gumbel and went into decline.
		But since Heidelberg was for the most part spared from destruction during the war, the reconstruction of the University was realised rather quickly.

	Gumbel Distribution
		The Gumbel distribution is a special case of the Generalized Extreme Value distribution.
		An attractive feature of the Gumbel distribution is that the parameter equations provide an estimate of the mode.
		Random number generation (referred to as r) for a Gumbel distribution can be performed by transforming a continuous uniform variable in the range 0 to 1 (referred to as u) with the distribution's inverse probability function:

		However it was Emil Gumbel who popularized the technique in the 1950s most notable with the publication of this text in 1958.
		The double exponential distribution, the limiting distribution for Gaussian data is often referred to as the Gumbel distribution.
		As a graduate student in the 1970s I studied extremes and the only available texts to rely on were Gumbel's book and the book on order statistics by David.

	Statistics of Weather and Climate Extremes
		One important theorem states that the maximum of a sequence of observations, under very general conditions, is approximately distributed as the generalized extreme value distribution.
		This distribution has three forms: (1) Gumbel (light tail), (2) Frechet (heavy tail), and (3) Weibull (bounded tail).
		In terms of the tail of a distribution, the corresponding theorem states that the observations exceeding a high threshold, under very general conditions, are approximately distributed as the generalized Pareto distribution [of which the exponential (light tail) and Pareto (heavy tail) are special cases].

		Emil J. Gumbel (1891-1966) began his career simply as a professor of mathematical statistics in Heidelberg, but he is most remembered as a political activist militantly advocating for pacifism during the complicated and volatile times of the Weimar Republic in Germany.
		This biography chronicles the public life of a man not entirely part of the political or the academic world, but who has earned his place in history nonetheless.
