1. Two-Barrier Problems in Applied Probability: Algorithms and Analysis
Abstract : This thesis consists of five papers (A-E). In Paper A, we study transient properties of the queue length process in various queueing settings. We focus on computing the mean and the Laplace transform of the time required for the queue length starting at $x0. We define the loss rate due to the reflection. READ MORE

2. Analysis and Modelling of Mineral and Element Composition in Compression Breakage
Abstract : The outstanding properties of tungsten and tantalum make them valuable metals and, in some cases, irreplaceable in applications. The growing interest due to the high economic importance and the limited supply places these metals in the critical metals risk list. READ MORE

3. A study of vehicle fatigue damage predictions based on state estimations
Abstract : Individual health monitoring of heavy vehicles is one of the keystones on which an optimized utility of a vehicle fleet is based. For many components mounted on the chassis of a heavy vehicle, failures due to fatigue is a major concern. READ MORE

4. System identification of large-scale linear and nonlinear structural dynamicmodels
Abstract : System identification is a powerful technique to build a model from measurement data by using methods from different fields such as stochastic inference, optimization and linear algebra. It consists of three steps: collecting data, constructing a mathematical model and estimating its parameters. READ MORE

5. Reliability Assessment and Probabilistic Optimization in Structural Design
Abstract : Research in the field of reliability based design is mainly focused on two sub-areas: The computation of the probability of failure and its integration in the reliability based design optimization (RBDO) loop. Four papers are presented in this work, representing a contribution to both sub-areas. READ MORE
