1. Aspects of Waiting and Contracting in Game Theory
Sammanfattning : The topic of this thesis concerns two selected problem in game theory; the Nplayer War of Attrition and the Principal-Agent problem. The War of Attrition is a well established game theoretic model that was first introduced in the 2-player case by John Maynard Smith. LÄS MER
2. Optimal Speed and Powertrain Control of a Heavy-Duty Vehicle in Urban Driving
Sammanfattning : A major challenge in the transportation industry is how to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases. One way of achieving this in vehicles is to drive more fuel-efficiently. LÄS MER
3. Fuel-Efficient Look-Ahead Control for Heavy-Duty Vehicles with Varying Velocity Demands
Sammanfattning : The fuel consumption of heavy-duty vehicles can be reduced by using information about the upcoming road section when controlling the vehicles. Most manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles today offer such look-ahead controllers for highway driving, where the information consists of the road grade and the velocity only has small variations.

4. Design of Optimal Control Processes for Closed-Loop Chain SCARA-Like Robots
Sammanfattning : The design of optimal control processes for closed-loop chain SCARA-like robots is the subject of this thesis. In comparison with the well-known SCARA robot, the proposed new structure is characterized by the incorporation of an additional powered actuator, several unpoweredactuators and an additional link that gives a closed-loop chain robot.

5. Optimal Predictive Control of Wheel Loader Transmissions
Sammanfattning : The transmissions of present heavy wheel loaders are in general based on torque converters. The characteristics of this component suits these machines, especially in that it enables thrust from zero vehicle speed without risk of stalling the engine, without active control. LÄS MER
