  1. 1. Nonlinearly Perturbed Renewal Equations : asymptotic Results and Applications

    Author : Ying Ni; Dmitrii Silvestrov; Anatoliy Malyarenko; Mats Gyllenberg; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nonlinearly perturbed renewal equation; perturbed renewal equation; nonlinear perturbation; non-polynomial perturbation; perturbed risk process; perturbed storage process; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; matematik tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we investigate a model of nonlinearly perturbed continuous-time renewal equation. Some characteristics of the renewal equation are assumed to have non-polynomial perturbations, more specifically they can be expanded with respect to a non-polynomial asymptotic scale. READ MORE

  2. 2. Perturbed Renewal Equations with Non-Polynomial Perturbations

    Author : Ying Ni; Dmitrii Silvestrov; Anatoliy Malyarenko; Yuri Belyaev; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Renewal equation; perturbed renewal equation; non-polynomial perturbation; exponential asymptotic expansion; risk process; ruin probability; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematics Applied Mathematics; matematik tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with a model of nonlinearly perturbed continuous-time renewal equation with nonpolynomial perturbations. The characteristics, namely the defect and moments, of the distribution function generating the renewal equation are assumed to have expansions with respect to a non-polynomial asymptotic scale: $\{\varphi_{\nn} (\varepsilon) =\varepsilon^{\nn \cdot \w}, \nn \in \mathbf{N}_0^k\}$  as $\varepsilon \to 0$, where $\mathbf{N}_0$ is the set of non-negative integers, $\mathbf{N}_0^k \equiv \mathbf{N}_0 \times \cdots \times \mathbf{N}_0, 1\leq k .

  3. 3. Human body composition. Reference data and anthropometric equations. The metabolic syndrome and risk

    Author : Ingrid Larsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : adults; anthropometry; atherosclerotic morbidity; body composition; body fat; cardiovascular disease; DEXA; dual energy x-ray absorptiometry; fat-free mass; FFM; humans; metabolic syndrome; morbidity; mortality; prediction equations; randomly selected sample; reference data; sagittal trunk diameter; TBK; total body potassium; waist circumference;

    Abstract : The determination of body composition is a key to the understanding of the relation between obesity and disease. In order to evaluate body composition data, reference values are needed. Since methods with high validity and reproducibility are expensive and often time consuming, simpler techniques based on anthropometry are needed. READ MORE

  4. 4. Uncertainty and Risk Analysis in Fire Safety Engineering

    Author : Håkan Frantzich; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; event tree; fire engineering design; reliability index; FOSM; Monte Carlo simulation; Risk analysis; uncertainty analysis; response surface.; Technological sciences; Teknik;

    Abstract : Two Quantitative Risk Analysis (QRA) methods are presented which can be used to quantify the risk to occupants in, for example, a building in which a fire has broken out. The extended QRA considers the inherent uncertainty in the variables explicitly. READ MORE

  5. 5. Asymptotic Expansions for Perturbed Discrete Time Renewal Equations

    Author : Mikael Petersson; Dmitrii Silvestrov; Ola Hössjer; Henrik Hult; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Renewal equation; Perturbation; Asymptotic expansion; Regenerative process; Quasi-stationary distribution; Risk process; Ruin probability;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the asymptotic behaviour of the solution of a discrete time renewal equation depending on a small perturbation parameter. In particular, we construct asymptotic expansions for the solution of the renewal equation and related quantities. READ MORE
