▼ A handling quality investigation was performed on the swept gull-wing configuration. The swept gull-wing configuration is tailless and has a wing with a transition in the sweep and dihedral angle. An example of this type of aircraft is the Exulans. This aircraft is currently under development at the University of Pretoria. The handling quality study was focussed on pitch axis dynamics. The Exulans is a research testbed that will be used to investigate the swept gull-wing configuration and its special controls by means of full-scale flight testing. Variable wing sweep, twisting elevons and winglets will be investigated as means of control. These control devices are configured in such a way as to have minimum impact on the performance of the aircraft. The handling qualities of the swept gull-wing configuration have to be acceptable while using these different control strategies. The study was launched to investigate whether a gull-wing configuration aircraft will have satisfactory handling qualities at CG positions associated with the most favourable aerodynamic performance. There is an aerodynamic performance gain in designing an aircraft so that the CG falls on the so-called `E-point'. The E-point is the centre of pressure for an elliptical circulation distribution. An elliptical circulation distribution is associated with the highest Oswald efficiency for an aircraft. Time domain simulation techniques and frequency domain analysis techniques were used to analyse the handling qualities of the gull-wing configuration. The C-star criterion was used to analyse handling qualities with time domain simulation data as input. Comparative time domain simulations were performed between the Exulans and other aircraft to compare handling qualities. Eigenvalue analysis was used together with the thumbprint criterion to investigate inherent gull-wing airframe dynamics. The Shomber-Gertsen and Military Specification 8785 criteria were also used for the same purpose. The Neal-Smith method was used to investigate the effect of control authority on handling qualities and the effect of a pilot. The Monnich and Dalldorff criterion was used to evaluate gust handling qualities. An analysis chart by Fremaux and Vairo was used to evaluate the tumbling susceptibility of the gull-wing configuration. The pitch handling quality investigation shows sufficient promise that the swept gull-wing configuration will have acceptable handling qualities with the CG placed at positions associated with optimised aerodynamic performance. Analysis showed that the swept gull-wing configuration is potentially prone to tumbling. With low static margins, the configuration should exhibit improved handling qualities in gusty conditions when compared to existing tailless aircraft. It is recommended that a lateral handling quality study be performed before full scale flight testing commences on the Exulans. In addition, the possibility of wingtip stall must be investigated for the case of the swept gull-wing configuration. Advisors/Committee Members: Theron, Nicolaas J (advisor).

With the continuous miniaturization of CMOS technology into the nanometer regime, the reliability of SRAM memories is threatened by accelerated transistor aging such as Bias Temperature Instability (BTI), Hot Carrier Injection (HCI) and gate oxide breakdown. Among these mechanisms BTI is known to be the primary aging mechanism in nanoscale devices. The overall effect of BTI is a gradual increase of threshold voltage (Vth). BTI significantly reduces the Static Noise Margin (SNM) of an SRAM cell and makes it more susceptible to failures. To address the impact of BTI in memory array a variety of bit flipping techniques has been proposed. However, all the proposed bit flipping techniques require at least an additional column to store the inversion flag which imposes considerably large area overhead. In this thesis, we propose two techniques to mitigate BTI induced aging in embedded memory: aging-aware instruction encoding and self-controlled bit flipping; both schemes take the workload into consideration. The aging-aware instruction encoding technique is based on changing the encoding of the Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) in order to balance the occurrence probabilities of 1s and 0s and therefore minimize the impact of BTI in the embedded memory. To evaluate this scheme, we used the Leon2 processor for course case study. A C++ based simulation environment was used to exhaustively search for an encoding resulting in a balanced occurrence probabilities of 0s and 1s. The simulation results revels that on average up to 30% SNM degradation improvement. Self-controlled bit flipping is based on inverting the content of the memory array during write operation with respect to a specific bit of the written word referred to as flip bit; this bit is left untouched during the write and used as a reference bit to indicate either the written data is inverted or not. Simulation results show that up to 33% SNM degradation improvement can be achieved. The area overhead of the proposed technique is the flip circuitry only. For this reason, our technique saves 64% of the area overhead induced by the periodic flipping techniques.

▼ Technology scaling has been the most obvious choice of designers and chip manufacturing companies to improve the performance of analog and digital circuits. With the ever shrinking technological node, process variations can no longer be ignored and play a significant role in determining the performance of nanoscaled devices. By choosing a worst case design methodology, circuit designers have been very munificent with the design parameters chosen, often manifesting in pessimistic designs with significant area overheads. Significant work has been done in estimating the impact of intra-die process variations on circuit performance, pertinently, noise margin and standby leakage power, for fixed transistor channel dimensions. However, for an optimal, high yield, SRAM cell design, it is absolutely imperative to analyze the impact of process variations at every design point, especially, since the distribution of process variations is a statistically varying parameter and has an inverse correlation with the area of the MOS transistor. Furthermore, the first order analytical models used for optimization of SRAM memories are not as accurate and the impact of voltage and its inclusion as an input, along with other design parameters, is often ignored. In this thesis, the performance parameters of a nano-scaled 6-T SRAM cell are modeled as an accurate, yield aware, empirical polynomial predictor, in the presence of intra-die process variations. The estimated empirical models are used in a constrained non-linear, robust optimization framework to design an SRAM cell, for a 45 nm CMOS technology, having optimal performance, according to bounds specified for the circuit performance parameters, with the objective of minimizing on-chip area. This statistically aware technique provides a more realistic design methodology to study the trade off between performance parameters of the SRAM. Furthermore, a dual optimization approach is followed by considering SRAM power supply and wordline voltages as additional input parameters, to simultaneously tune the design parameters, ensuring a high yield and considerable area reduction. In addition, the cell level optimization framework is extended to the system level optimization of caches, under both cell level and system level performance constraints.

Este trabalho teve como objetivo discutir a temática do Custeio Variável aplicado a uma empresa prestadora de serviços, para demonstrar o uso da Margem de Contribuição como ferramenta de apoio à gestão da empresa. A pesquisa aqui relatada utilizou o método qualitativo como abordagem, realizada por meio de um estudo de caso descritivo utilizando como modelo a Análise da relação Custo x Volume x Lucro para empresas multiprodutoras. A fim de possibilitar a realização deste estudo de caso, foi realizada a revisão da literatura sobre o tema, de modo a fundamentar e estruturar as etapas de aplicação do modelo adotado no ambiente organizacional escolhido, analisando-se os serviços prestados pela empresa e identificando-se corretamente a Margem de Contribuição destes. Após esta etapa, foi possível analisar a participação de cada serviço na composição do mix de vendas da empresa e, dessa forma, avaliar a contribuição efetiva de cada um na geração da riqueza para a empresa. O modelo proposto envolve basicamente a identificação da Margem de Contribuição Unitária e sua correspondente Razão de Contribuição, além da identificação do Ponto de Equilíbrio de cada serviço, bem como da empresa como um todo. Esse estudo foi desenvolvido em uma instituição de ensino em fase de crescimento e devido aos desafios que se apresentam a uma empresa nessas condições, aumenta a relevância do mesmo, do ponto de vista do uso de ferramentas de gestão profissionais, que apesar de consagradas no mercado, nem sempre são utilizadas por uma grande parte das pequenas empresas.

▼ Ce manuscrit étudie dans un premier temps la dépendance de la distorsion, ou erreur en quantification, du quantificateur construit à partir d'un n-échantillon d'une distribution de probabilité via l'algorithme des k-means. Plus précisément, l'objectif de ce travail est de donner des bornes en probabilité sur l'écart entre la distorsion de ce quantificateur et la plus petite distorsion atteignable parmi les quantificateurs, à nombre d'images k fixé, décrivant l'influence des divers paramètres de ce problème: support de la distribution de probabilité à quantifier, nombre d'images k, dimension de l'espace vectoriel sous-jacent, et taille de l'échantillon servant à construire le quantificateur k-mean. Après un bref rappel des résultats précédents, cette étude établit l'équivalence des diverses conditions existantes pour établir une vitesse de convergence rapide en la taille de l'échantillon de l'écart de distorsion considéré, dans le cas des distributions à densité, à une condition technique ressemblant aux conditions requises en classification supervisée pour l'obtention de vitesses rapides de convergence. Il est ensuite prouvé que, sous cette condition technique, une vitesse de convergence de l'ordre de 1/n pouvait être atteinte en espérance. Ensuite, cette thèse énonce une condition facilement interprétable, appelée condition de marge, suffisante à la satisfaction de la condition technique établie précédemment. Plusieurs exemples classiques de distributions satisfaisant cette condition sont donnés, tels les mélanges gaussiens. Si cette condition de marge se trouve satisfaite, une description précise de la dépendance de l'écart de distorsion étudié peut être donné via une borne en espérance: la taille de l'échantillon intervient via un facteur 1/n, le nombre d'images k intervient via différentes quantités géométriques associées à la distribution à quantifier, et de manière étonnante la dimension de l'espace sous-jacent semble ne jouer aucun rôle. Ce dernier point nous a permis d'étendre nos résultats au cadre des espaces de Hilbert, propice à la quantification des courbes. Néanmoins, la quantification effective en grande dimension nécessite souvent en pratique une étape de réduction du nombre de variables, ce qui nous a conduit dans un deuxième temps à étudier une procédure de sélection de variables associée à la quantification. Plus précisément, nous nous sommes intéressés à une procédure de type Lasso adaptée au cadre de la quantification vectorielle, où la pénalité Lasso porte sur l'ensemble des points images du quantificateur, dans le but d'obtenir des points images parcimonieux. Si la condition de marge introduite précédemment est satisfaite, plusieurs garanties théoriques sont établies concernant le quantificateur issu d'une telle procédure, appelé quantificateur Lasso k-means, à savoir que les points images de ce quantificateur sont proches des points images d'un quantificateur naturellement parcimonieux, réalisant un compromis entre erreur en quantification et taille du support des points images, et que l'écart… Advisors/Committee Members: Massart, Pascal (thesis director), Biau, Gérard (thesis director).

Background: It is today common for companies to provide some sort of incentive for CEO's and senior management positions to motivate, retain and benefit employees within a company. This is in order to drive the goals of the CEO and management in the direction that is desired by the owner. Currently, the Swedish centre-right government has forbidden the use of such variable pay within state-owned companies. There are two different attitudes to variable pay, one that is in favour and one that rejects it. However most people agree on the fact that a well-functioning incentive scheme can be of great strategic importance for a company. Approach: has variable pay to CEO's had any effect on the company's profitability. Aim: the aim of the study is to compare companies who use variable pay to CEO's with companies that do not in relation to their profitability in terms of profit margins, yearly performance, returns on total capital and returns on equity. Method: the study uses a quantitative approach. The statistical methods that are used to answer the research question are linear and logistic regression analyses of 51 publicly owned companies in Sweden. The statistical analyses utilises an existing database (Affärsdata) which has information based on the companies’ annual report. Due to the fact that the database lacked information concerning incentive schemes, this information was retrieved manually from the company websites (annual financial reports). The research approach is deductive as we have used a range of theories which we thereafter test through our empirical analysis. Results: The results for the linear regressions show that variable pay to CEO has little or no connection to the degree of the company’s profitability. The logistic regressions show a positive significant relationship between variable pay and the company’s odds of being profitable or not. Conclusion: The study shows that variable pay to the CEO is unlikely to have a big impact on the degree of profit or loss for a company. It does however show that variable pay to the CEO is of importance in terms of whether the company makes a profit or not.

Bakgrund: Det är idag vanligt att företag använder sig av någon typ av incitament till VD och ledande befattningshavare. Syftet är att motivera, behålla och gynna anställda inom ett företag. Detta för att kunna styra VD och ledningens mål i den riktning ägaren önskar. I dagsläget har den borgerliga regeringen i Sverige beslutat om att bruket av rörlig ersättning inom statligt ägda företag är förbjudet. Uppfattningar kring företags tillämpande av rörlig ersättning skiljer sig från de som helt förkastar användandet till de som fullt ut förespråkar dem. Däremot är de flesta överens om att ett fungerande incitamentsprogram kan vara av stor strategisk betydelse för ett företag. Problemformulering: Har rörlig ersättning till VD…

▼ The Peru margin plays a significant role in global climate dynamics and biogeochemical cycling. Situated between 4-15°S off the western coast of South America the Peru upwelling region fuels one of the world's most productive marine ecosystems. This high surface productivity along with poorly ventilated source waters places the Peru margin within the world's three oxygen minimum/denitrification zones. These denitrification regions represent the major loss of nitrate (an important macronutrient) from the ocean system. As a consequence of this, long-term changes in the strength and/or size of the Peru margin upwelling system have a fundamental impact on the world's carbon cycle. The Peru coastal current merges with equatorial upwelling to form the eastern equatorial cold tongue. Instability of the tropical cold tongue drives the coupled oceanic- atmospheric El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). This coupled mode has been described as a 'globalizer' for its ability to drive global climate on both millennial and orbital timescales. Despite the significance of the Peru margin, little is known about how the climate evolved during the recent past. The work presented in this dissertation focuses on understanding how the Peru margin climate has evolved since the end of the Last Glacial Maximum, and identifying what the driving mechanisms of those climate changes were. Here we reconstruct the key environmental parameters of the Peru margin climate:Sea surface temperature (UK'37 index), phytoplankton productivity (Alkenone-C37total and biogenic silica and subsurface ventilation (δ15N of bulk organics). Our results suggest that the remote ventilation of the Peru thermocline dominated over the oxygen demand imposed by local productivity during the early Holocene. Near the middle Holocene a dramatic increase in climate variability was accompanied by a shift toward more locally driven climate dynamics, revealed through the relationship between our surface and subsurface climate proxies. The late Holocene section of our record oscillates between centennial-scale periods of locally driven and non-locally driven subsurface ventilation. We therefore argue that the strength of the Peru oxygen minimum zone reflects a balance between high and low latitude climate forcings.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar se os investimentos em parte dos municípios brasileiros em usinas de geração de energia elétrica impactaram o PIB dos respectivos municípios. Consideraram-se, para esse importante setor de infraestrutura, as fontes de geração eólica, térmica e hidráulica, no período de 2005 a 2010, dentro de 5.558 municípios no Brasil, excluídas seis em função de inexistência de todos os dados. Os resultados empíricos deste trabalho mostram evidências de que a implantação de usinas de geração de energia elétrica em parte dos municípios, principalmente as usinas térmicas, tem efeito positivo sobre o PIB dos respectivos municípios. Considerando a variável espacial, distância, os resultados indicam que os municípios que estão a pelo menos 1.000 km de distância do local onde foi implantado o empreendimento, também recebem benefícios no roduto interno. Este resultado foi identificado, também, pela análise empírica demonstrada no painel de dados estático de efeitos fixos. A regressão realizada em painel de dados dinâmico de Arellano-Bond também confirma o resultado.

The aim of this study was to analyze whether investment in part of Brazilian municipalities in power generation plants had an impact on GDP of the respective municipalities. Considering, in this important infrastructure sector, both sources of wind generation, thermal and hydraulic, in the period 2005-2010, in 5,558 counties in Brazil, six were excluded due to lack of any data. The empirical results of this study show evidence that the creation of plants generating electricity in the counties, especially thermal power plants, has a positive effect on GDP in the respective counties. Considering the spatial variable, distance, the results indicate that counties are at least 1,000 miles away from where the project was implemented, also a recent benefit of domestic product. This result was identified also by empirical analysis demonstrated in the static panel of fixed data effects. The regression performed on dynamic Arellano-Bond panel data also confirms the result.

▼ Aggressive scaling of CMOS technology in sub-90nm nodes has created huge challenges. Variations due to fundamental physical limits, such as random dopants fluctuation (RDF) and line edge roughness (LER) are increasing significantly with technology scaling. In addition, manufacturing tolerances in process technology are not scaling at the same pace as transistor's channel length due to process control limitations (e.g., sub-wavelength lithography). Therefore, within-die process variations worsen with successive technology generations. These variations have a strong impact on the maximum clock frequency and leakage power for any digital circuit, and can also result in functional yield losses in variation-sensitive digital circuits (such as SRAM). Moreover, in nanometer technologies, digital circuits show an increased sensitivity to process variations due to low-voltage operation requirements, which are aggravated by the strong demand for lower power consumption and cost while achieving higher performance and density. It is therefore not surprising that the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) lists variability as one of the most challenging obstacles for IC design in nanometer regime. To facilitate variation-tolerant design, we study the impact of random variations on the delay variability of a logic gate and derive simple and scalable statistical models to evaluate delay variations in the presence of within-die variations. This work provides new design insight and highlights the importance of accounting for the effect of input slew on delay variations, especially at lower supply voltages. The derived models are simple, scalable, bias dependent and only require the knowledge of easily measurable parameters. This makes them useful in early design exploration, circuit/architecture optimization as well as technology prediction (especially in low-power and low-voltage operation). The derived models are verified using Monte Carlo SPICE simulations using industrial 90nm technology. Random variations in nanometer technologies are considered one of the largest design considerations. This is especially true for SRAM, due to the large variations in bitcell characteristics. Typically, SRAM bitcells have the smallest device sizes on a chip. Therefore, they show the largest sensitivity to different sources of variations. With the drastic increase in memory densities, lower supply voltages and higher variations, statistical simulation methodologies become imperative to estimate memory yield and optimize performance and power. In this research, we present a methodology for statistical simulation of SRAM read access yield, which is tightly related to SRAM performance and power consumption. The proposed flow accounts for the impact of bitcell read current variation, sense amplifier offset distribution, timing window variation and leakage variation on functional yield. The methodology overcomes the pessimism existing in conventional worst-case design techniques that are used in SRAM design. The proposed…

▼ This dissertation consisits of two chapters. Both chapters relate to the effects of trade resistence measures commonly used in the International Trade literature. The first chapter investigates the effects of trade costs on the extensive and intensive margins of trade. The second chapter uses a semi-nonparametric estimation technique to include zero trade trade values and adds additional flexibility to the estimation of trade costs. Trade literature has made use of the gravity equation since its introduction by Tinbergen (1962) to measure the impact of trade barriers and country characteristics on bilateral trade flows. The new focus of the literature separates international trade into two separate components: 1) the extensive margin which describe the variety of products exported, and 2) the intensive margin which describes the volume of each variety exported. Research using the traditional gravity equation inherently assumes that for any change in trade cost only affects the intensive margin or variable costs. Industry level data is used to construct a modified gravity specification that allows for the separate analysis of the extensive and intensive margin as well as their specific contribution to the estimates of trade costs. It is shown that the extensive margin or fixed costs do have significant contribution to the estimates in previous research using the gravity equation. Additionally, the changing nature of trade costs investigated in past research will be shown to be in part due trade resistance measures increasing or decreasing on the intensive margin. Recently, there has been increased interest in estimation techniques that allow for the presence of zeros for determining the impact covariates on international trade flows. Traditionally, the gravity equation has been used to measure trade resistance and geographic characteristics on bilateral trade. Recent methods have tried to correct for selection and heterogeneity bias created by the use of Ordinary Least Squares (OLS). Allowing zero trade values in the estimation process allows for the inclusion potentially useful information in the determination of the effects of trade costs on bilateral trade. This paper will use a semi-nonparametric estimation that will correct for selection and heterogeneity bias. Conditional density estimation (CDE) is a semi-nonparametric approach that allows for the inclusion of bilateral pairs with no observed trade and for an accurate estimate of the change in the expected value of trade given a change in the explanatory variable. The CDE method is a discrete approximation of the density function that mimics a discrete hazard rate analyses on the variable of interest conditional of the explanatory variables. The estimates of geographic distance and GDPs of each country are shown to be lower using the CDE than the standard gravity method of estimation.

▼ Glioma is one of the most challenging types of brain tumors to be treated or controlled locally. One of the main problems is to determine which areas of the apparently normal brain contain glioma cells, as gliomas are known to infiltrate several centimetres beyond the clinically apparent lesion that is visualized on standard CT or MRI. To ensure that radiation treatment encompasses the whole tumor, including the cancerous cells not revealed by MRI, doctors treat the volume of brain that extends 2cm out from the margin of the visible tumor. This approach does not consider varying tumor-growth dynamics in different brain tissues, thus it may result in killing some healthy cells while leaving cancerous cells alive in other areas. These cells may cause recurrence of the tumor later in time which limits the effectiveness of the therapy. In this thesis, we propose two models to define the tumor invasion margin based on the fact that glioma cells preferentially spread along nerve fibers. The first model is an anisotropic reaction-diffusion type tumor growth model that prioritizes diffusion along nerve fibers, as given by DW-MRI data. The second proposed approach computes the tumor invasion margin using a geodesic distance defined on the Riemannian manifold of brain fibers. Both mathematical models result in Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) that have to be numerically solved. Numerical methods used for solving differential equations should be chosen with great care. A part of this thesis is dedicated to discuss in detail, the numerical aspects such as stability and consistency of different finite difference methods used to solve these PDEs. We review the stability issues of several 2D methods that discretize the anisotropic diffusion equation and we propose an extension of one 2D stable method to 3D. We also analyze the stability issues of the geodesic model. In comparison, the geodesic model is numerically more stable than the anisotropic diffusion model since it results in a first-order PDE. Finally, we evaluate both models on actual DTI data from patients with glioma by comparing our predicted growth with follow-up MRI scans. Results show improvement in predicting the invasion margin when using the geodesic distance model as opposed to the 2cm conventional Euclidean distance.

▼ Dentre os componentes da estratégia dos prestadores de serviços, a determinação de custos, margens e preços finais se constitui como elemento de elevada importância para manutenção da viabilidade econômica, dentro de um mercado que exige melhores serviços, com a manutenção de custos em patamares que permitam rentabilidade frente aos reembolsos e assegurem uma posição de captação e manutenção de clientes. As pequenas e médias empresas têm importante papel socio-econômico no cenário nacional, e há uma percepção de falta de práticas gerenciais adequadas no setor de medicina veterinária. Alega-se que o conhecimento contábil exerce papel central na adoção das práticas utilizadas. Desta forma, a pesquisa é conduzida no setor de serviços de clínica médica veterinária para avaliar empiricamente o nível de conhecimento contábil conceitual dos gestores, quais variáveis contingenciais e pessoais interferem no conhecimento contábil e de que forma esse conhecimento interfere nas práticas gerenciais. A bibliografia indica que o conhecimento contábil é importante variável contingente, afetando as práticas e o desempenho das organizações. A Upper Echelons Theory argumenta que uma organização é reflexo da decisão de seus gestores e que atributos pessoais observáveis do gestor podem ser utilizados como meio de influência das práticas adotadas. A pesquisa contribui para a literatura a respeito de Teoria da Contingência e Upper Echelons Theory. A metodologia aplicada nesta pesquisa foi um survey com 30 itens, divididos em blocos de identificação do perfil organizacional e pessoal do gestor, avaliação de conhecimentos contábeis e rotinas de determinação de custos, margens e preços. Foram obtidas 167 respostas cuja análise permitiu retratar um nível de conhecimento de conceitos contábeis mediano, sem o refinamento dos métodos de custeio variável, margem de contribuição e aplicação de custos na determinação de preços. O nível de conhecimento foi impactado pelas variáveis contingenciais: localização geográfica e presença de gestão profissional. Atributos pessoais do gestor que refletiram diferenças de nível de conhecimento contábil foram: formação acadêmica, grau de formação e horas de capacitação técnica em gestão. O conhecimento, quando considerado a variável contingente, foi determinante das práticas utilizadas de custo, margem e precificação. Há uma percepção de descontentamento com os próprios conhecimentos por parte dos empresários que apontam a falta de conhecimento e a falta de profissionais habilitados como os principais obstáculos para uma melhor gestão. Não houve identificação de contadores como gestores na amostra e os respondentes indicam o não oferecimento do serviço por parte do profissional contábil que os assessora como o principal motivo para o afastamento. Há indícios de que quanto maior o nível de conhecimento, melhor o desempenho financeiro e oportunidades para diferenciação. São apresentadas proposições de aproximação de profissionais contábeis capacitados e empresários, assim como sugestões e oportunidades de… Advisors/Committee Members: Guerreiro, Reinaldo.

L'objectif du travail proposé est de concevoir et commander un groupe des robots mobiles similaires et d'architecture simple appelés m-bots (mono-robots). Plusieurs m-bots ont la capacité de saisir ensemble un objet afin d'assurer sa co-manipulation et son transport quelle que soit sa forme et sa masse. Le robot résultant est appelé p-bot (poly-robot) et est capable d'effectuer des tâches de déménageur pour le transport d'objets génériques. La reconfigurabilité du p-bot par l'ajustement du nombre des m-bots utilisés permet de manipuler des objets lourds et des objets de formes quelconques (particulièrement s'ils sont plus larges qu'un seul m-bot). Sont considérés dans ce travail l'évitement d'obstacle ainsi que la stabilité du p-bot incluant la charge à transporter. Une cinématique pour un mécanisme de manipulation a été proposée et étudiée. Ce dernier assure le levage de la charge et son dépôt sur le corps des robots pour la transporter. Plusieurs variantes d'actionnement ont été étudiées : passif, avec compliance et actionné. Un algorithme de positionnement optimal des m-bots autour de l'objet à manipuler a été proposé afin d'assurer la réussite de la tâche à effectuer par les robots. Cet algorithme respecte le critère de "Force Closure Grasping" qui assure la stabilité de la charge durant la phase de manipulation. Il maintient aussi une marge de stabilité statique qui assure la stabilité de l'objet durant la phase de transport. Enfin, l'algorithme respecte le critère des zones inaccessibles qui ne peuvent pas être atteintes par les m-bots. Une loi de commande a été utilisée afin d'atteindre les positions désirées pour les m-bots et d'assurer la navigation en formation, durant la phase du transport, durant laquelle chaque robot élémentaire doit maintenir une position désirée par rapport à l'objet transporté. Des résultats de simulation pour un objet de forme quelconque, décrite par une courbe paramétrique, sont présentés. Des simulations 3D en dynamique multi-corps ainsi que des expériences menées sur les prototypes réalisés ont permis de valider nos propositions.

Our goal in the proposed work is to design and control a group of similar mobile robots with a simple architecture, called m-bot. Several m-bots can grip a payload, in order to co-manipulate and transport it, whatever its shape and mass. The resulting robot is called a p-bot andis capable to solve the so-called "removal-man task" to transport a payload. Reconfiguring the p-bot by adjusting the number of m-bots allows to manipulate heavy objects and to manage objects with anyshape, particularly if they are larger than a single m-bot. Obstacle avoidance is addressed and mechanical stability of the p-bot and its payload is permanently guaranteed. A proposed kinematic architecture for a manipulation mechanism is studied. This mechanism allows to lift a payload and put it on them-bot body in order to be transported. The mobile platform has a free steering motion allowing the system maneuver in any direction. An optimal positioning of the m-bots around the…

▼ PURPOSE: The purpose of this research was to quantify the effects of a warm-up with static or dynamic stretching on countermovement jump height, reaction time, muscle onsets for tibialis anterior (TA) and vastus lateralis (VL), and low back/ hamstring flexibility. METHODS: Twenty one recreationally-active males (24.4 ± 4.5 yrs), recruited from the university community, completed 3 data collection sessions. Inclusion criteria were regular participation (30 minutes, 3 days per week) in exercise including resistance training, sprinting, or jumping, and no history of lower extremity injury in the past 6 months. Each session included a 5 minute treadmill jog followed by one of the stretch treatments: no stretching (NS), static stretching (SS), or dynamic stretching (DS). After the general warm-up and treatment, the participant performed a sit-and-reach test to assess low back and hamstring flexibility. Next, the participant completed a series of ten maximal-effort countermovement jumps (CMJ), during which he was asked to jump as quickly as possible after seeing a visual stimulus (light). The onset of movement and CMJ height were determined from force plate data, and muscle onsets (TA and VL) were obtained using surface electromyography (sEMG). Ground reaction forces were recorded at 2000 Hz using a portable force plate, and filtered at 25 Hz. Outcome measures included maximal jump height, reaction time, and muscle onset (TA and VL). A repeated measures 3 (treatment) by 8 (jump) ANOVA was used to assess CMJ height. Additional outcome measures (reaction time, muscle onsets, flexibility) were assessed using separate repeated-measures one-way ANOVA. RESULTS: Results of the 3x8 repeated-measures ANOVA for CMJ height revealed a significant main effect of treatment (p=.004). Post hoc analysis showed significant differences between NS (41.4cm) and DS (43.0cm) (p=.0045), and between SS (41.9cm) and DS (p=.0435), but not between NS and SS (p=.4605). Analysis also revealed a significant main effect of jump (p=.005) on CMJ height: mean jump height progressively decreased from the early to the late jumps. No significant interaction between treatment and jump was observed (p=.571). The analysis of reaction time, TA and VL sEMG onsets showed no significant effects. Treatment also had a main effect (p<.001) on flexibility. Post hoc analysis revealed improved flexibility after both SS (p=.002) and DS (p<.001) compared with NS, with no difference in flexibility between the two treatments (p=.530). CONCLUSION: CMJ height was significantly higher during the DS condition compared to SS and NS, with no difference between NS and SS. Additionally, reaction time and muscle onsets were not influenced by either stretch technique.

▼ Static correction for near-surface effects is a critical issue for onshore seismic data processing due to its significant impact on imaging the subsurface structure, especially for area with severe topographic and near-surface velocity variations. The key idea to determine static correction is to build an accurate near-surface velocity model, which leads to several methods such as refraction statics, uphole surveys and tomostatics. Among these methods, tomostatics, which builds the near-surface velocity models using tomography, is a promising method. However, in complex near-surface areas, traditional grid tomography is often unable to determine the static correction. This is mainly because the conflict between the need of smaller cell to describe the severe velocity variation and the increasing number of inversion unknowns which leads to solution's uncertainty. The deformable-layer tomography (DLT) determines the complex near-surface velocity models by inverting for depth-varying velocity interfaces. Both synthetic and field data offer many cases illustrating DLT's effectiveness. The main advantage of DLT over grid tomography is that DLT builds a geologically reasonable model with less inversion unknowns, and can resolve the velocity model better with some constrains such as the result of uphole surveys, which is available in my study. Also, a reversed-velocity interface, which is common in mountainous area and has severe effect on near-surface imaging, may be better solved by DLT. The survey area of my thesis is in the western Sichuan, China, which is mountainous and has a complex near-surface situation. Thus, I have been motivated to find whether the DLT can be a good solution to this problem. I use the DLT to build the near-surface velocity model and determine the static correction for the area. The final velocity model produced by DLT holds close velocity-depth information compared to uphole survey, and static correction calculated from such model shows improvement, such as an increasing level of reflection coherency on stack section.

▼ The basement rocks of North Island, New Zealand, comprise metasedimentary terranes that were accreted onto the eastern Gondwana margin during Mesozoic subduction. Since the Oligocene, these terranes have been sitting at the leading edge of the Australian Plate, as the hanging wall of the Hikurangi subduction margin, overriding the subducting Pacific Plate. This thesis examines the thermo-tectonic histories of the basement rocks in North Island, using fission-track and (U-Th-Sm)/He thermochronology. In eastern North Island, thermochronological data from the basement rocks record the exhumation histories since the latest Jurassic, related to two subduction cycles. Zircon fission-track analysis yields detrital or slightly reset ages (264–102 Ma); apatite fission-track ages range from 122 to 7.9 Ma and (U-Th-Sm)/He from 33.3 to 6.0 Ma. In central North Island, modelled thermal histories suggest that the basement rocks were exhumed to shallow levels (<2 km) of the crust in the Early Cretaceous (~150–135 Ma). This was followed by a period of reheating until ~100 Ma, which is interpreted to be the result of burial by sedimentation above the accretionary wedge. From 100 Ma, models indicate thermo-tectonic quiescence until the Late Oligocene. During the late Cenozoic, exhumation of the basement rocks accelerated at ~27 Ma in the western margin of the axial ranges (Kaimanawa Mountains). This acceleration in exhumation rate is interpreted to reflect the initiation of the subduction of the Pacific Plate beneath central North Island. Since the Late Oligocene, basement exhumation in the axial ranges migrated towards the trough. Modelled thermal histories indicate significant eastwards reverse faulting on the margin-parallel Ngamatea Fault between ~27 and 20 Ma and on the Wellington-Mohaka Fault between ~20 and 10 Ma. In contrast to the activity in the axial ranges, in western North Island, the exhumational response of the basement rocks to the Cenozoic subduction was less significant and not revealed from the present thermochronological data. Since the Late Miocene, the exhumation rate in the axial ranges has varied significantly along-strike, lower in the centre and higher to the north and south. During the last 10 Myr, the total magnitude of exhumation has been ~4 km in the Wellington region in the south, >1 km in the Raukumara Range in the north and negligible (less than a few hundred metres) in the central axial ranges in the Hawke’s Bay region. Although the accumulation of underplated material at the basal upper plate may have contributed to the localised rock uplift and exhumation (e.g. in the Raukumara Range), margin-normal shortening of the upper plate in the forearc of the Hikurangi Margin has most likely dominated the unroofing process of the axial ranges. In northwestern North Island, the Northland Allochthon, an assemblage of Cretaceous–Oligocene sedimentary rocks, was emplaced during the Late Oligocene–earliest Miocene, onto in situ Mesozoic and early Cenozoic rocks. Detrital zircon and apatite fission-track… Advisors/Committee Members: Seward, Diane, Little, Tim, Kohn, Barry.
