  2. 1. Objects and objectivity : Alternatives to mathematical realism

    Author : Ebba Gullberg; Sten Lindström; John Cantwell; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Philosophy of mathematics; mathematical realism; ontological realism; semantic realism; platonism; the semantic argument; the indispensability argument; the non-uniqueness problem; Benacerraf s dilemma; the irrelevance challenge; Field; Carnap; Balaguer; Yablo; the internal external distinction; fictionalism; Theoretical philosophy; Teoretisk filosofi; Theoretical Philosophy; teoretisk filosofi;

    Abstract : This dissertation is centered around a set of apparently conflicting intuitions that we may have about mathematics. On the one hand, we are inclined to believe that the theorems of mathematics are true. READ MORE

  4. 2. From Acoustics to Articulation : Study of the acoustic-articulatory relationship along with methods to normalize and adapt to variations in production across different speakers

    Author : Gopal Ananthakrishnan; Olov Engwall; Gérard Bailly; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Acoustic-Articulatory relationship; speaker normalization;

    Abstract : The focus of this thesis is the relationship between the articulation ofspeech and the acoustics of produced speech. There are several problems thatare encountered in understanding this relationship, given the non-linearity,variance and non-uniqueness in the mapping, as well as the differences thatexist in the size and shape of the articulators, and consequently the acoustics,for different speakers.

  5. 3. Robust broadband beamforming and digital filter design : methods and applications

    Author : Sven Nordebo; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This doctoral thesis consists of a summary and six parts corresponding to six different papers. There are two published and three submitted journal papers, and one research report. The summary will highlight the main results and emphasize the interrelationships between different parts. READ MORE

  6. 4. Resistivity and Surface Wave Seismic Surveys in Geotechnical Site Investigations

    Author : Roger Wisén; Teknisk geologi; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; teknisk geografi; Hydrogeologi; teknisk geologi; Hydrogeology; geographical and geological engineering; resistivity method; surface wave seismic method; inverse modelling; site investigation; geophysics;

    Abstract : The adaptation of geophysical methods for civil engineering purposes represents an important contribution to the development of geotechnical site investigation methodology. The term geotechnical site investigation here refers to all investigations performed prior to or during construction; i.e. READ MORE

  7. 5. An Integration-Reduction Scheme for Simulation of Large Systems with Local Nonlinearity and Uncertainty - Application to moving load problems in railway mechanics

    Author : Sadegh Rahrovani; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Monte-Carlo simulations; time-integration; moving load problems; reliability analysis; exponential integrator; symplectic integrator; modal dominancy analysis;

    Abstract : The focus of this research is mainly on computational efficiency, as future work is planned for reliability analysis that will be combined with design optimisation. Both these fields are known to be notoriously computationally demanding. READ MORE
