    Author : Andre Romahn; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This dissertation consists of four papers in structural empirics that can be broadly categorized into two areas. The first three papers revolve around the structural estimation of demand for differentiated products and several applications thereof (Berry (1994), Berry, Levinsohn and Pakes (1995), Nevo (2000)), while the fourth paper examines the U.

  2. 2. On Structured System Identification and Nonparametric Frequency Response Estimation

    Author : Per Hägg; Bo Wahlberg; Tomas McKelvey; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : To keep up with the ever increasing demand on performance and efficiency of control systems, accurate models are needed. System identification is concerned with the estimation and validation of mathematical models of dynamical systems from experimental data. READ MORE

  5. 5. Flowability and proportioning of cementitious mixtures

    Author : Yahya Ghasemi; Mats Emborg; Andrzej Cwirzen; Martin Nilsson; Stefan Jacobsen; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Particle packing; excess layer theory; mix design; Structural Engineering; Konstruktionsteknik;

    Abstract : Understanding the role of constituents of cementitious mixtures as the most globally used human-made material and their effect on the flowability of the blends is of great importance. A comprehensive understanding of the ingredients of mixtures allows for optimized proportioning of constituents and can lead to a reduction in cement and water demand of the blends. READ MORE
