Answer 8

try as well to read yourself, I'm not exactly sure what you're searching for:
https://books.google.co.il/books?id=DdU2iJqnau4C&pg=PA1097&lpg=PA1097&#v=onepage&q=vesuvius&f=false
The book is called 'Earth sciences and mathematics"
I'll look for more resources too

Answer 9

There is a nice mathematical analysis about mountain Vesuvius here:

Search for "Vesuvius" it'll take you there. The analysis shows that the eruptions seem random, is that something you can use?
