  1. 1. Robust Design Experimentation and Dispersion Effects

    Author : Martin Arvidsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; estimation procedure; design of experiments; generalized linear models; event matrices; variance component; location effects; split-plot experiments; robust design; identification procedure; dispersion effects;

    Abstract : One of the most common methods in robust design methodology is design of experiments. This method makes it possible to identify settings of design factors that make products and production processes robust with respect to noise factors. READ MORE

  2. 2. 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

  3. 3. Female sex hormones and health outcomes in women with specific focus on asthma

    Author : Guo-Qiang Zhang; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; asthma; Bayesian estimation; case-control; causal inference; estrogens; female sex hormones; hormonal contraceptives; menarche; menopausal hormone therapy; menopause; meta-analysis; multiple imputation; progestogens; research reproducibility; robust variance estimation; systematic review; umbrella review; women;

    Abstract : In humans, gender differences exist across a wide spectrum of diseases. For instance, women are more likely to develop Sjogren’s syndrome, systemic lupus erythematosus, and autoimmune thyroid disease compared to men. READ MORE

  4. 4. Estimation Problems in Array Signal Processing, System Identification, and Radar Imagery

    Author : Richard Abrahamsson; Peter Stoica; A. Lee Swindlehurst; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Parameter Estimation; Array Signal Processing; STAP; SAR; Ground Penetrating Radar; System Identification; Bilinear Models; Covariance Matrix Estimation; Signal processing; Signalbehandling; Signalbehandling; Signal Processing;

    Abstract : This thesis is concerned with parameter estimation, signal processing, and applications. In the first part, imaging using radar is considered. More specifically, two methods are presented for estimation and removal of ground-surface reflections in ground penetrating radar which otherwise hinder reliable detection of shallowly buried landmines.

  5. 5. Single-Zone Cylinder Pressure Modeling and Estimation for Heat Release Analysis of SI Engines

    Author : Markus Klein; Lars Eriksson; Lars Nielsen; Per Tunstål; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; heat release; parameter estimation; prior knowledge; regularization; specific heat ratio; compression ratio; Systems engineering; Systemteknik;

    Abstract : Cylinder pressure modeling and heat release analysis are today important and standard tools for engineers and researchers, when developing and tuning new engines. Being able to accurately model and extract information from the cylinder pressure is important for the interpretation and validity of the result. READ MORE
