In explosive volcanic eruptions, the sudden release of gases from magma may cause rapid movements of the molten rock.

their utility function works is that it is constructed precisely to fill the role of something whose expectation is maximized:
"Many economists will feel that we are assuming far too much ... Have we not shown too much? ... As far as we can see, our postulates [are] plausible ... We have practically defined numerical utility as being that thing for which the calculus of mathematical expectations is legitimate." – VNM 1953, § 3.1.1 p.16 and § 3.7.1 p. 28
