Abstract: In this paper, we introduce an alternative skew-slash distribution in multivariate setting. This includes as a special case the symmetric multivariate slash distribution, and otherwise provides skew extension of the multivariate slash distribution. The distribution is potentially useful for empirical modeling and in robustness studies. Some properties of the new distribution are presented. An application is provided for illustrative reason.

Abstract
Presents information on studies on the physical phenomenon of wrinkles in crumpled sheets of paper. Research on what happens at a single ridge between two sharp points; Effect of the sheet size on the total amount of energy required to crumple it; Experiment on the collective behavior of a large number of creases; Power-law relationships discovered in the properties of a crumpled ball.
