  2. 1. On the Improvement of Healthcare Management Using Simulation and Optimisation

    Author : Marie Persson; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Simulation; Optimization; Management; Healthcare;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns healthcare management and specifically addresses the problems of operating room planning and waiting list management. The operating room department is one of the most expensive areas within the healthcare system which necessitates many expensive resources such as staff, equipment and medicine. READ MORE

  4. 2. Switched Bond Graphs : Simulation and Analysis

    Author : Krister Edström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Bond graphs; Hybrid systems; Modeling; Simulation; Causality; Discontinuities;

    Abstract : In this thesis an approach to modeling and simulation of mode switching systems is investigated. This approach, switched bond graphs, is an extension of the bond graph language in the sense that it allows modeling of mode switching phenomena.The classical bond graph language as well as the switched bond graph language are presented.

  5. 3. A pseudoparabolic reaction-diffusion-mechanics system : Modeling, analysis and simulation

    Author : Arthur Vromans; Adrian Muntean; Martin Lind; Mohammad Asadzadeh; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; reaction-diffusion-mechanics model; parameter delimitation; parabolic-pseudoparabolic equations; weak solvability; Rothe method; periodic homogenization; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : In this thesis, parabolic-pseudoparabolic equations are derived coupling chemical reactions, diffusion, flow and mechanics in a heterogeneous medium using the framework of mixture theory. The weak solvability in 1-D of the obtained models is studied. READ MORE

  6. 4. Models for coupled active-passive population dynamics : Mathematical analysis and simulation

    Author : Thi Kim Thoa Thieu; Adrian Muntean; Matteo Colangeli; Grigorios A. Pavliotis; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; pedestrian dynamics; simple exclusion process; Forchheimer flows; Skorohod equations; nonlinear coupling; heterogenous domain; homogenization; drafting; evacuation; Matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : In this dissertation, we study models for coupled active--passive pedestrian dynamics from mathematical analysis and simulation perspectives. The general aim is to contribute to a better understanding of complex pedestrian flows. READ MORE

  7. 5. On perfect simulation and EM estimation

    Author : Kajsa Larson; Sara Sjöstedt de Luna; Mats Rudemo; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Perfect simulation; coupling from the past; Markov chain Monte Carlo; point process; Widom-Rowlinson model; EM algorithm; dispersal distribution; fecundity; first-passage percolation; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : Perfect simulation  and the EM algorithm are the main topics in this thesis. In paper I, we present coupling from the past (CFTP) algorithms that generate perfectly distributed samples from the multi-type Widom--Rowlin-son (W--R) model and some generalizations of it. READ MORE
