  1. 11. Gain-Scheduled Controller Design

    Författare :Adrian Ilka; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Guaranteed cost control; Gain-scheduled control; Bellman-Lyapunov function; Lyapunov theory of stability; Robust control; Input output constraints; LPV system;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to controller synthesis, i.e. to finding a systematic procedure to determine the optimal (sub-optimal) controller parameters which guarantees the closed-loop stability and guaranteed cost for uncertain nonlinear systems with considering input/output constraints, all this without on-line optimization.

  2. 12. Multivariate linear normal models with special references to the growth curve model

    Författare :Dietrich von Rosen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : The Growth Curve Model (GMAN0VA) introduced by Potthoff & Roy (1964) and two extensions are considered. The first extension treats a Growth Curve Model with concomitant variables whereas the second is applicable when different growth curves or when linear restrictions on the parameter space, describing the mean structure in the Growth Curve Model, exist.

  3. 13. Global stability and feedback control of boundary layer flows

    Författare :Espen Åkervik; Dan S. Henningson; Luca Brandt; Dwight Barkley; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Stability; Global Stability; Feedback Control; Control; Estimation; Absolute Convective Instabilities; Model Reduction; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis the stability of generic boundary layer flows is studied from a global viewpoint using optimization methods. Global eigenmodes of the incompressible linearized Navier-Stokes equations are computed using the Krylov subspace Arnoldi method. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Credit risk and forward price models

    Författare :Raquel M Gaspar; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis consists of three distinct parts. Part I introduces the basic concepts and the notion of general quadratic term structures (GQTS) essential in some of the following chapters. Part II focuses on credit risk models and Part III studies forward price term structure models using both the classical and the geometrical approach. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Contributions to High–Dimensional Analysis under Kolmogorov Condition

    Författare :Jolanta Maria Pielaszkiewicz; Dietrich von Rosen; Martin Singul; Thomas Holgersson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Eigenvalue distribution; free moments; free Poisson law; Marchenko-Pastur law; random matrices; spectral distribution; Wishart matrix; Mathematics; Matematik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is about high–dimensional problems considered under the so{called Kolmogorov condition. Hence, we consider research questions related to random matrices with p rows (corresponding to the parameters) and n columns (corresponding to the sample size), where p > n, assuming that the ratio  converges when the number of parameters and the sample size increase.
