16. On the Snell envelope approach to optimal switching and pricing Bermudan options
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of two papers related to systems of Snell envelopes. The first paper uses a system of Snell envelopes to formulate the problem of two-modes optimal switching for the full balance sheet in finite horizon. LÄS MER
17. Topics in the mean-field type approach to pedestrian crowd modeling and conventions
Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of five appended papers, primarily addressingtopics in pedestrian crowd modeling and the formation of conventions.The first paper generalizes a pedestrian crowd model for competingsubcrowds to include nonlocal interactions and an arbitrary (butfinite) number of subcrowds.

18. Nonlinear Model Predictive Control for Autonomous Vehicles
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we consider the problem of designing and implementing Model Predictive Controllers (MPC) for stabilizing the dynamics of an autonomous ground vehicle. For such a class of systems, the non-linear dynamics and the fast sampling time limit the real-time implementation of MPC algorithms to local and linear operating regions. LÄS MER
19. Mathematical Modeling, Optimization and Scheduling of Aircraft's Components Maintenance and of the Maintenance Workshop
Sammanfattning : This research concerns the simultaneous scheduling of preventive maintenance for a fleet of aircraft and their common components along with the maintenance workshop, to which the components are sent for repair. The problem arises from an industrial project with the Swedish aerospace and defence company Saab. LÄS MER
20. Valuation and Optimal Strategies in Markets Experiencing Shocks
Sammanfattning : This thesis treats a range of stochastic methods with various applications, most notably in finance. It is comprised of five articles, and a summary of the key concepts and results these are built on.The first two papers consider a jump-to-default model, which is a model where some quantity, e.g. LÄS MER
