  2. 1. Characterization of Chimney Flue Gas Flows : Flow Rate Measurements with Averaging Pitot Probes

    Author : Janne Paavilainen; Chris Bales; Jan-Olof Dalenbäck; Lennart Gustavsson; Högskolan Dalarna; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flue gas; measurement; characterization; averaging Pitot tube; SolNET;

    Abstract : Performance testing methods of boilers in transient operating conditions (start, stop and combustion power modulation sequences) need the combustion rate quantified to allow for the emissions to be quantified. One way of quantifying the combustion rate of a boiler during transient operating conditions is by measuring the flue gas flow rate. READ MORE

  5. 3. Methods for handling model misspecification in pharmacometric model-based approaches for the analysis of longitudinal clinical trial data

    Author : Estelle Chasseloup; Mats Karlsson; Andrew Hooker; Karl Brendel; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; pharmacometrics; nonlinear mixed-effects models; misspecification; type I error; power; accuracy; placebo; individual model averaging; IMA; likelihood ratio test; LRT; model averaging; covariate selection; mixture models; visual predictive checks; VPC; avatars; digital twins; virtual individual; Farmaceutisk vetenskap; Pharmaceutical Science;

    Abstract : Pharmacometrics model-based analyses proved to be increasingly useful in drug discovery and development. This usefulness was made evident by the formalisation of the model-integrated drug discovery and development framework (MID3). READ MORE

  6. 4. Averaging level control in the presence of frequent inlet flow upsets

    Author : Peter Rosander; Alf J. Isaksson; Johan Löfberg; Morten Hovd; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : Averaging level control; PI control; Surge tanks; Optimal control; Robust MPC; Process control;

    Abstract : Buffer tanks are widely used within the process industry to prevent flow variations from being directly propagated throughout a plant. The capacity of the tank is used to smoothly transfer inlet flow upsets to the outlet. Ideally, the tank thus works as a low pass filter where the available tank capacity limits the achievable flow smoothing. READ MORE

  7. 5. Essays on forecasting and Bayesian model averaging

    Author : Jana Eklund; Handelshögskolan i Stockholm; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : This thesis, which consists of four chapters, focuses on forecasting in a data-rich environment and related computational issues. Chapter 1, “An embarrassment of riches: Forecasting using large panels” explores the idea of combining forecasts from various indicator models by using Bayesian model averaging (BMA) and compares the predictive performance of BMA with predictive performance of factor models.
