1. 1. On Robot Feedback from Range Sensors : Reliable Control by Active Reduction of Uncertainty and Ambiguities

   Författare :Jonas Nygårds; John Hallam; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; robot gripping and docking; LQG-feedback; posture estimation; Gaussian sum; optronic sensing; sheet of light range camera; time-of-flight laser; specular reflection s; multiple scattering; range ghosts ; active reduction of ambiguities; reliability; uncertainty; tolerances;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis is on modelling and experimental tests when non contact sensing isused for feedback control in robotics. The motion of the robot is to be controlled relative to objects in the surrounding workspace during operations like gripping/docking, surface following, shape measuring etc. LÄS MER

3. 2. Identification and synthesis of components for uncertainty propagation

   Författare :Mladen Gibanica; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; substructuring; uncertainty propagation; uncertainty quantification; surrogate modelling; Monte Carlo method; interface reduction; state-space models; experimental methods; system identification;

   Sammanfattning : For automotive structures, built-up of hundreds of components with property spread, knowing the effects of component variability and its propagation through the system assembly is important in order to mitigate noise and vibration problems. To increase the understanding of how the spread propagates into variability in built-up structures, both experimental and computational aspects are considered in this thesis. LÄS MER

4. 3. Hydro-Climatic Variability and Change in Central America : Supporting Risk Reduction Through Improved Analyses and Data

   Författare :Beatriz Quesada-Montano; Sven Halldin; Hugo G. Hidalgo; Ida K. Westerberg; Fredrik Wetterhall; Denis Hughes; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Central America; climate variability; disaster risk reduction; droughts; drought indices; floods; hydrological model; process constraints; statistical downscaling; uncertainty; ungauged basins; water resources.; Hydrology; Hydrologi;

   Sammanfattning : Floods and droughts are frequent in Central America and cause large social, economic and environmental impacts. A crucial step in disaster risk reduction is to have a good understanding of the causing mechanisms of extreme events and their spatio-temporal characteristics. LÄS MER

5. 4. Nuclear data uncertainty quantification and data assimilation for a lead-cooled fast reactor : Using integral experiments for improved accuracy

   Författare :Erwin Alhassan; Henrik Sjöstrand; Rochman Dimitri; Michael Österlund; Stephan Pomp; Oscar Cabellos; Uppsala universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Total Monte Carlo; ELECTRA; nuclear data; uncertainty propagation; integral experiments; nuclear data adjustment; uncertainty reduction;

   Sammanfattning : For the successful deployment of advanced nuclear systems and optimization of current reactor designs, high quality nuclear data are required. Before nuclear data can be used in applications they must first be evaluated, tested and validated against a set of integral experiments, and then converted into formats usable for applications.

7. 5. Uncertainty, Robustness and Sensitivity Reduction in the Design of Single Input Control Systems

   Författare :Kjell Nordström; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Uncertainty; Robustness; Sensitivity; Single input control systems;

   Sammanfattning : Feedback control of systems modelled as single input, time invariant, linear and continuous time systems is the subject of this thesis. A growing interest in the design of feedback control systems that can cope with model uncertainties has been the motivation for the study. LÄS MER
