Abstract: Chimera is an atlas containing all 663,206,904 regular vine matrices representing regular vines on 4 up to 8 nodes. The atlas was recently created at the TU Delft and is being used in education and research in applied statistics and engineering. The aim is to share the experiences using Chimera in education and research. With respect to research, its use for investigating an algorithm is discussed for fitting vine copulas to multidimensional data. Additionally, applications in civil engineering are discussed. The computational challenges and the advantages associated with the use of Chimera are discussed.
