  1. 1. Feasible Direction Methods for Constrained Nonlinear Optimization : Suggestions for Improvements

    Författare :Maria Mitradjieva-Daneva; Maud Göthe-Lundgren; Torbjörn Larsson; Clas Rydergren; Anders Forsgren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; constrained nonlinear optimization; feasible direction methods; conjugate directions; traffic equilibrium problem; sequential linear programming algorithm; stochastic transportation problem; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the development of novel feasible direction type algorithms for constrained nonlinear optimization. The new algorithms are based upon enhancements of the search direction determination and the line search steps. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Towards Accurate Numerical Methods for Ship Flows on Composite Overlapping Grids

    Författare :Lars Carlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; boundary layer; wake; incompressible flow; Navier-Stokes; composite overlapping grids; grid generation; ship flow; parallel computing; alternating-direction implicit; line-implicit;

    Sammanfattning : Numerical methods are presented that are designed to make accurate ship-flow computations more feasible. One method concerns the automatic generation of high-quality computational grids. It treats the grids as competing individuals in a population, where an individual's fitness is based on a measure of grid quality. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Methods to quantify and qualify truck driver performance

    Författare :Iulian Carpatorea; Slawomir Nowaczyk; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Wahde Mattias; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Driver performance; heavy-duty vehicle; fuel economy; fuel consumption; fuel prediction; truck driver;

    Sammanfattning : Fuel consumption is a major economical component of vehicles, particularly for heavy-duty vehicles. It is dependent on many factors, such as driver and environment, and control over some factors is present, e.g. route, and we can try to optimize others, e. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Novel statistical methods for genome-wide association summary statistics

    Författare :Zheng Ning; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : A general objective of genetic studies is to understand the genetic basis of complex traits such as height, body mass index (BMI), disease endpoints, etc. Such researches have been facilitated due to the completion of the human genome project and developments of high-throughput technologies.
