  1. 1. Volterra and Algebraic Approaches to the Zero Dynamics

    Author : Håkan Fortell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The zero dynamics is a property of affi.ne nonlinear systems w hich has been extensively studied during the last decade. Its properties are important in several contexts such as exact linearization, stabilization and sliding mode control. READ MORE

  2. 2. Algebraic Approaches to Normal Forms and Zero Dynamics

    Author : Håkan Fortell; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The normal form of affine state space systems has been extensively studied during the last decade and it has found several important applications. Two such applications are exact input-output linearization and sliding mode control. A property of affine nonlinear systems that is simple to compute given a normal form is the zero dynamics.

  3. 3. Probabilistic Sequence Models with Speech and Language Applications

    Author : Gustav Eje Henter; W. Bastiaan Kleijn; Arne Leijon; Gernot Kubin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Time series; acoustic modelling; speech synthesis; stochastic processes; causal-state splitting reconstruction; robust causal states; pattern discovery; Markov models; HMMs; nonparametric models; Gaussian processes; Gaussian process dynamical models; nonlinear Kalman filters; information theory; minimum entropy rate simplification; kernel density estimation; time-series bootstrap;

    Abstract : Series data, sequences of measured values, are ubiquitous. Whenever observations are made along a path in space or time, a data sequence results. To comprehend nature and shape it to our will, or to make informed decisions based on what we know, we need methods to make sense of such data. READ MORE

  4. 4. Asymptotics of Eigenpolynomials of Exactly-Solvable Operators

    Author : Tanja Bergkvist; Boris Shapiro; Andrei Martinez-Finkelshtein; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; exactly-solvable; eigenpolynomials; zero distribution; asymptotics; MATHEMATICS; MATEMATIK; matematik; Mathematics;

    Abstract : The main topic of this doctoral thesis is asymptotic properties of zeros in polynomial families arising as eigenfunctions to exactly-solvable differential operators. The study was initially inspired by a number of striking results from computer experiments performed by G. Masson and B. Shapiro for a more restrictive class of operators. READ MORE

  5. 5. The fracture mechanisms in duplex stainless steels at sub-zero temperatures

    Author : Johan Pilhagen; Pavel Korzhavy; Rolf Sandström; Kim Wallin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Duplex stainless steel; Weldments; Delamination; Fracture toughness; Impact toughness; Cleavage fracture; Nickel;

    Abstract : The aim of the thesis was to study the susceptibility for brittle failures and the fracture process of duplex stainless steels at sub-zero temperatures (°C). In the first part of the thesis plates of hot-rolled duplex stainless steel with various thicknesses were used to study the influence of delamination (also known as splits) on the fracture toughness.
