  1. 1. Block stability analysis using deterministic and probabilistic methods

    Author : Mehdi Bagheri; Håkan Stille; Charlie C. Li; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Block stability analysis; Model uncertainty; Joint relaxation; Partial factor; Sensitivity analysis;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a discussion of design tools for analysing block stability around a tunnel. First, it was determined that joint length and field stress have a significant influence on estimating block stability. READ MORE

  2. 2. Error analysis of summation-by-parts formulations : Dispersion, transmission and accuracy

    Author : Viktor Linders; Jan Nordström; Marco Kupiainen; Mark Carpenter; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : In this thesis we consider errors arising from finite difference operators on summation-by-parts (SBP) form, used in the discretisation of partial differential equations. The SBP operators are augmented with simultaneous-approximation-terms (SATs) to weakly impose boundary conditions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Stable High-Order Finite Difference Methods for Aerodynamics

    Author : Magnus Svärd; Jan Nordström; Thomas Hagstrom; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; finite difference methods; high-order accuracy; summation-by-parts; stability; energy estimates; finite volume methods; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap; Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis, the numerical solution of time-dependent partial differential equations (PDE) is studied. In particular high-order finite difference methods on Summation-by-parts (SBP) form are analysed and applied to model problems as well as the PDEs governing aerodynamics. READ MORE

  4. 4. Summation-by-Parts Operators for High Order Finite Difference Methods

    Author : Ken Mattsson; Nordström Jan; Gunilla Kreiss; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dinite difference methods; accuracy; stability; dissipation; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap; Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : High order accurate finite difference methods for hyperbolic and parabolic initial boundary value problems (IBVPs) are considered. Particular focus is on time dependent wave propagating problems in complex domains. Typical applications are acoustic and electromagnetic wave propagation and fluid dynamics. READ MORE

  5. 5. On the robust stability analysis of VSC-HVDC systems

    Author : Yujiao Song; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; symbolic eigenvalue expressions; distributed parameter cable model; AC-grid interaction; VSC-HVDC system; passivity theorem; small gain theorem; Nyquist stability analysis;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on small signal stability analysis of VSC-HVDC systems, emphasizing the system stability robustness with regard to the connected AC-grid and the distributed parameter DC-grid model respectively. In addition, for strong AC-grid connected systems, analytical eigenvalue expressions are provided to investigate the impact of physical or control parameters on the system stability for both two-terminal and multi-terminal VSC-HVDC systems.
