21. Piecewise Linear Control Systems
Sammanfattning : This thesis treats analysis and design of piecewise linear control systems. Piecewise linear systems capture many of the most common nonlinearities in engineering systems, and they can also be used for approximation of other nonlinear systems. LÄS MER
22. On computational methods for nonlinear estimation
Sammanfattning : The Bayesian approach provides a rather powerful framework for handling nonlinear, as well as linear, estimation problems. We can in fact pose a general solution to the nonlinear estimation problem. However, in the general case there does not exist any closed-form solution and we are forced to use approximate techniques.

23. Convergence Analysis and Improvements for Projection Algorithms and Splitting Methods
Sammanfattning : Non-smooth convex optimization problems occur in all fields of engineering. A common approach to solving this class of problems is proximal algorithms, or splitting methods. These first-order optimization algorithms are often simple, well suited to solve large-scale problems and have a low computational cost per iteration. LÄS MER
24. Large deviation techniques applied to three questions of when
Sammanfattning : Large deviation techniques are used to solve three problems; when is a distant convex barrier passed, when to accept a sequence of gambles and when is the time of ruin. This work is the collection of four papers. LÄS MER
25. Estimation of electromagnetic material properties with application to high-voltage power cables
Sammanfattning : Efficient design of high-voltage power cables is important to achieve an economical delivery of electric power from wind farms and power plants over the very long distances as well as the overseas electric power. The main focus of this thesis is the investigation of electromagnetic losses in components of high-voltage power cables. LÄS MER
