4. 2. Analysis and Design of Hybrid Systems

   Author : Stefan Pettersson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; asymptotic stability; Lyapunov theory; exponential stability; piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions; hybrid systems; stability; linear matrix inequalities; nonlinear systems; LMIs; control theory; fuzzy systems;

   Abstract : Many physical systems today are modeled by interacting continuous and discrete event systems. Such hybrid systems contain both continuous and discrete states that influence the dynamic behavior. READ MORE

5. 3. Nonlinear Model-based Control of Automotive Powertrains

   Author : Jonas Fredriksson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; stability; diesel engine control; nonlinear control; gearshifting; air-to-fuel ratio control; drive- line oscillations; backstepping; powertrain modeling; powertrain control;

   Abstract : In recent years the focus of powertrain control has shifted perspective from control of the individual powertrain components to control of the complete powertrain, so-called integrated powertrain control. The idea presented in this thesis is to view the powertrain as one single control object and to used the engine as a torque actuator to the rest of the driveline. READ MORE

6. 4. Computer-Assisted Proofs and Other Methods for Problems Regarding Nonlinear Differential Equations

   Author : Oswald Fogelklou; Warwick Tucker; Gunilla Kreiss; Piotr Zgliczynski; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computer-assisted proof; numerical verification; viscous Burgers’ equation; enclosure; existence; nonlinear boundary value problems; Euler equations; inverse problem; bicubic spline; interval analysis; heat equation; fluid limit; peer-to-peer networks; fixed points; stability; global stability; Mathematics; Matematik;

   Abstract : This PhD thesis treats some problems concerning nonlinear differential equations. In the first two papers computer-assisted proofs are used. The differential equations there are rewritten as fixed point problems, and the existence of solutions are proved. READ MORE

7. 5. The Double Obstacle Problem on Metric Spaces

   Author : Zohra Farnana; Jan Björn; Anders Björn; Juha Kinnunen; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; metric space; nonlinear; obstacle problem; p-harmonic; potential theory; regularity; stability; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK;

   Abstract : During the last decade, potential theory and p-harmonic functions have been developed in the setting of doubling metric measure spaces supporting a p-Poincar´e inequality. This theory unifies, and has applications in several areas of analysis, such as weighted Sobolev spaces, calculus on Riemannian manifolds and Carnot groups, subelliptic differential operators and potential theory on graphs.
