  2. 1. Preconditioners and fundamental solutions

    Author : Per Sundqvist; Henrik Brandén; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : New preconditioning techniques for the iterative solution of systems of equations arising from discretizations of partial differential equations are considered. Fundamental solutions, both of differential and difference operators, are used as kernels in discrete, truncated convolution operators. READ MORE

  4. 2. Approximate Dynamic Programming with Applications

    Author : Andreas Wernrud; Institutionen för reglerteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : This thesis studies approximate optimal control of nonlinear systems. Particular attention is given to global solutions and to the computation of approximately optimal feedback controllers. The solution to an optimal control problem is characterized by the optimal value function. READ MORE

  5. 3. Explanation and deduction : a defence of deductive chauvinism

    Author : Henrik Hållsten; Matti Sintonen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Deductive explanation; Statistical explanation; Chances; Propensities; Probabilities; Sine qua non; Probabilistic causality; Indeterminism; Ideal explanatory text; Explanatory information; Explanatory sketches; Dynamic systems; Chaotic systems; Approximate solutions; Argument generating procedure. Central figures: Hempel; Coffa; Salmon; Railton; Humphreys; Kitcher; Poincaré; Suppes; Lorenz; Hénon.; Theoretical Philosophy; teoretisk filosofi;

    Abstract : In this essay I defend the notion of deductive explanation mainly against two types of putative counterexamples: those found in genuinely indeterministic systems and those found in complex dynamic systems. Using Railton's notions of explanatory information and ideal explanatory text, deductivism is defended in an indeterministic setting. READ MORE

  7. 5. Coarse-Grained Models of Ionic Solutions

    Author : Ryan Szparaga; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo; Classical Density Functional Theory; Coarse-Grained Models; Ionic Liquids; Prewetting; Capillary Condensation; Electric Double Layer; Differential Capacitance.;

    Abstract : Room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) are compounds composed entirely of ions, which are liquid at temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius. Their high ionic strength and strong coupling make them useful for a number of applications, e.g. as electrolytes in supercapacitors. READ MORE
