%0 Journal Article %T Quotient of Laplace and Gumbel random variables %A Saralees Nadarajah %J Mathematical Problems in Engineering %D 2006 %I Hindawi Publishing Corporation %R 10.1155/mpe/2006/90598 %X The Gumbel and the Laplace distributions are perhaps two of the most applied distributions in engineering. Motivated by engineering issues, the exact distribution of the quotient |X/Y| is derived when X and Y are independent Gumbel and Laplace random variables. Tabulations of the associated percentage points and a computer program for generating them are also given. %U http://www.hindawi.com/journals/mpe/2006/090598/abs/
