    Abstract : Introduction. Road traffic injuries are the eighth leading cause of death globally and the leading cause of death among young people aged 15-29. Of individuals killed or injured in road traffic injuries, a large group comprises occupants sustaining a thorax injury in frontal crashes. The elderly are particularly at risk, as they are more fragile. READ MORE

  5. 3. Inverse Problems in Analytic Interpolation for Robust Control and Spectral Estimation

    Author : Johan Karlsson; Anders Lindquist; Alberto Isidori; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nevanlinna-Pick Interpolation; Approximation; Model Reduction; Robust Control; Gap-robustness; Sensitivity Shaping; Entropy functional; Spectral Estimation; Weak*-topology; Monge-Kantorovic Transportation; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : This thesis is divided into two parts. The first part deals with theNevanlinna-Pick interpolation problem, a problem which occursnaturally in several applications such as robust control, signalprocessing and circuit theory. We consider the problem of shaping andapproximating solutions to the Nevanlinna-Pick problem in a systematicway. READ MORE
