▼ The turbomachinery related industry relies heavily on numerical tools for the design and development of modern turbomachines. In order to be competitive turbomachines ought to be highly efficient and robust. This has lead engineers to develop more aggressive designs, which often leads to lower margins of structural reliability. One of the strongest threats to turbomachines are high cycle fatigue problems which arise from aeroelastic phenomena such as flutter. According to Kielb R. (2013) many of such problems are detected at developing testing stage. This implies that the prediction capabilities for aeroelastic phenomena are in need of further development and/or tuning. This is especially evident for unsteady flow phenomena at transonic regimes. A very important step for the improvement of unsteady aerodynamic solvers is the validation and comparison of such solvers. The present thesis concerns with the validation and comparison of a non-linear time marching (ANSYS CFX) and the GKN’s in-house linearised solvers used for flutter analysis. The former has recently implemented a new feature called Transient Blade Row TBR, which drastically reduces the simulation domain to a maximum of two blades. In order to be included in the deign process, such tool need to be validated. In the same way, the recently launched in-house code LINNEA needs to be validated in order to be considered as a design tool. Experimental data from the aeroelastic standard configuration 4, and the FUTURE project were used for the validation purposes. The validation process showed that the solvers agreed very well between them for the standard configuration. Such agreement was less clear for the FUTURE compressor; nonetheless, the solutions still sit within the bulk of solutions provided from the different FUTURE partners. The validation showed that these tools provide with similar results as the state of the art tools from different companies. This indicates that they can be used in the design process. At the same time it was observed that there is room for improvement in the solvers, as these still present some considerable differences with the experimental results.

▼ In this dissertation, we study certain types of
linear mappings on triangular algebras. Triangular algebras are algebras whose elements can be written in the form of 2 x 2 matrices [special characters omitted]where a ∈ A, b ∈ B, m ∈ M and where A, B are algebras and M is a bimodule. Many widely studied algebras, such as upper triangular matrix algebras and nest algebras, can be viewed as triangular algebras. This dissertation is divided into five chapters. The first chapter is a general account of the basics of triangular algebras, including the unitization of nonunital triangular algebras and the structure of the centre of triangular algebras, as well as a brief introduction to some well-known examples of triangular algebras.
In Chapter 2, we study the general structure of derivations on triangular algebras and obtain some results on the first cohomology groups of triangular algebras. The first cohomology group of an algebra is the quotient space of the space of all derivations over the space of all inner derivations, and it is always a main tool in the research of derivations. In addition, we consider the problem of automatic continuity of derivations in the last section of this chapter.
In Chapter 3, we consider sufficient conditions on a triangular algebra so that every Lie derivation is a sum of a derivation and a
linear map whose image lies in the centre of the triangular algebra.
In Chapter 4, we consider sufficient conditions for every commuting map on a triangular algebra to be a sum of a map of the form x ↦ ax and a map whose image lies in the centre of the triangular algebra.
In the final chapter, we are concerned with the automorphisms of triangular algebras. The study of automorphism is a most important way to understand the underlying structure of an algebra. We deduce some results on the Skolem-Noether groups, or the outer automorphism groups, of triangular algebras and apply those results to generalize some known results about automorphisms on a triangular matrix algebras.

▼ In this work we focus on various cutting-plane methods for Mixed-integer Linear Programming (MILP) problems. It is well-known that MILP is a fundamental hard problem and many famous combinatorial optimization problems can be modeled using MILP formulations. It is also well-known that MILP formulations are very useful in many real life applications. Our first, rather theoretical, contribution is a new family of superadditive valid inequalities that are obtained from value functions of special surrogate optimization problems. Superadditive functions hold particular interest in MILP as they are fundamental in building integer programming duality, and all ``deepest valid inequalities'' are known to arise from superadditive functions. We propose a new family of superadditive functions that generate inequalities that are at least as strong as Chvatal-Gomory (CG-) inequalities. A special subfamily provides a new characterization of CG-cuts. Value functions of optimization problems are known to be super additive. We look at special surrogate optimization problems, and measure their complexity in terms of the number of integer variables in them. It turns out that the lowest possible nontrivial complexity class here includes all CG-cuts, and provides some stronger ones, as well. Our next contribution is a practically efficient, polynomial time method to produce ``deepest'' cuts form multiple simplex rows for the so called corner polyhedra. These inequalities have been receiving considerable attention lately. We provide a polynomial time column-generation algorithm to obtain such inequalities, based on an arbitrary (fixed) number of rows of the simplex tableau. We provide numerical evidence that these inequalities improve the CPLEX integrality gap at the root node on a well-known set of MILP instances, MIPLIB. In the last chapter, we consider a particular MILP instance, Optimal Resilient Distribution Grid Design Problem (ORDGDP). This is a problem of critical importance to infrastructure security and recently attracted a lot of attention from various government agencies (e.g. Presidential Policy Directive of Critical Infrastructure Security 2013). We formulate this problem as a MILP and propose various efficient solution methods blending together well-known decomposition ideas to overcome the numerical intractability encountered using commercial MILP software such as CPLEX.

▼ This dissertation addresses the design of observer and observer-based controllers for singularly perturbed linear systems. To that end, we present an algorithm for the recursive solution of the singularly perturbed algebraic Sylvester equation. Due to the presence of a small singular perturbation parameter that indicates separation of the system variables into slow and fast, the corresponding algebraic Sylvester equation is numerically ill-conditioned. The observer driven controller design of singularly perturbed linear systems with the observer design done using the algebraic Sylvester equation is extremely ill-conditioned since the observer has to be much faster than the feedback system. The proposed method for the recursive reduced-order solution of the algebraic Sylvester equations removes ill-conditioning and iteratively obtains the solution in terms of four reduced-order numerically well-conditioned algebraic Sylvester equations corresponding to slow and fast variables. The convergence rate of the proposed algorithm is O( ), where is a small positive singular perturbation parameter. The new design technique for full-order Luenberger observers for systems with slow and fast modes is presented. The existing methods are able to design independent slow and fast observers with O( ) accuracy only, where is a small positive singular perturbation parameter. In this dissertation, the design of independent slow and fast reduced-order observers was performed with the exact accuracy. The results obtained are extended to the design of corresponding observer driven controllers. The design allows complete time-scale separation for both the observer and controller through the complete and exact decomposition into slow and fast time scale problems. This method reduces both off-line and on-line computations. The effectiveness of the new methods is demonstrated through both theoretical and simulation results. The results obtained for the full-order observer of singularly perturbed linear systems are extended to design of reduced-order observers (using both the Sylvester equation and Luenberger observer formulations) and the design of corresponding controllers for singularly perturbed systems. In such design additional computational advantages are achieved due to the use of the reduced order observers. Several cases of reduced-order observer designs are considered depending on the measured state space variables: only all slow variables are measured, only all fast variables are measured, some combinations of the slow and fast variables are measured.

▼ An important problem in engineering is the determination of the system input based on the system response. This type of problem is difficult to solve as it is often ill-defined, and produces inaccurate or non-unique results. Current input reconstruction techniques typically involve the employment of optimization methods or additional constraints to regularize the problem, but these methods are not without their flaws as they may be sub-optimally applied and produce inadequate results. To overcome these obstacles, linear dynamical systems theory and control systems theory are utilized in this work to develop a method that is asymptotically convergent to the exact solution. To address the inverse problem, multiple concepts are utilized. We perform an equilibrium analysis of linear dynamical systems with time-dependent inputs, and derive expressions for the dynamical equilibrium and remainder to provide a measure of the accuracy of the approximation. Then, concepts from control theory are used to define an unperturbed estimation system with observer feedback. We define an error system that consists of the difference between the estimate and actual system, and apply the concepts from our equilibrium analysis to develop a direct relationship between the system response and the applied force. Additionally, using an observer feedback gain, we are able to design the eigenvalues such that the derivatives of the applied force are filtered out and we obtain the input. This method was applied to lumped-parameter systems, continuous systems discretized using modal analysis, systems with probabilistic inputs, and a class of nonlinear systems. For each of these cases, we perform an error bounds analysis on bounded and unbounded inputs that are infinitely continuous and differentiable, and inputs with jump discontinuities to determine the quality of our estimate for the input. The results from these analyses demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed estimation method under various input conditions, and show the asymptotic nature of the estimate to the actual applied force. For each of these cases, examples are presented detailing the application of the proposed method under various loading conditions.

▼ The Berlekamp/Massey algorithm computes the unique minimal generator of a
linearly generated scalar sequence. The matrix generalization of the Berlekamp/Massey
algorithm, the Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm, computes a minimal matrix genera-
tor of a linearly generated matrix sequence. The Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm has
applications in multivariable control theory and exact sparse
linear algebra. The fraction
free version of the Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm can be adapted into a
linear solver
for block Hankel matrices. A thorough investigation of the Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algo-
rithm and the fraction free Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm is presented. A description
of the algorithms and their invariants are given. The underlying
linear algebra of the algo-
rithms is explored. The connection between the update procedures of the algorithms and
the nullspaces of the related matrix systems is detailed.
A full definition and description of linearly generated matrix sequences and their
various generators is given first as background. A new classification of all linearly generated
matrix sequences is proven to exist. A complete description of the Matrix Berlekamp/
Massey algorithm and its invariants is then given. We describe a new early termination
criterion for the algorithm and give a full proof of correctness for the algorithm. Our version
and proof of the algorithm removes all rank and dimension constraints present in previous
versions in the literature. Next a new variation of the Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm
is described. The fraction free Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm performs its operations
over integral domains. The divisions performed by the algorithm are exact. A full proof of
the algorithm and its exact division is given. Finally, we describe two implementations of the
Matrix Berlekamp/Massey algorithm, a Maple implementation and a C++ implementation,
and compare the two implementations. The C++ implementation is done in the generic
LinBox library for exact
linear algebra and modeled after the Standard Template Library.

Nas engenharias, é fundamental estimar o tempo de vida útil das estruturas construídas, o que neste trabalho significa o tempo que os íons cloretos levam para atingirem a armadura do concreto. Um dos coeficientes que influenciam na vida útil do concreto é o de difusão, sendo este diretamente influenciado pelo grau de saturação (GS) do concreto. Recentes estudos
levaram ao desenvolvimento de um método de medição do GS. Embora esse método seja
eficiente, ainda assim há um grande desperdício de tempo e dinheiro em utilizá-lo. O objetivo deste trabalho é reduzir estes custos calculando uma boa aproximação para o valor do GS com modelos matemáticos que estimem o seu valor através de variáveis ambientais que influenciam na sua variação. As variáveis analisadas nesta pesquisa, são: pressão atmosférica,temperatura do ar seco, temperatura máxima, temperatura mínima, taxa de evaporação interna (Pichê), taxa de precipitação, umidade relativa, insolação, visibilidade, nebulosidade e taxa de
evaporação externa. Todas foram analisadas e comparadas estatisticamente com medidas do
GS obtidas durante quatro anos de medições semanais, para diferentes famílias de concreto. Com essas análises, pode-se medir a relação entre estes dados verificando que os fatores mais influentes no GS são, temperatura máxima e umidade relativa. Após a verificação desse resultado, foram elaborados modelos estatísticos, para que, através dos dados ambientais, cedidos pelo banco de dados meteorológicos, se possam calcular, sem desperdício de tempo e dinheiro, as médias aproximadas do GS para cada estação sazonal da região sul do Brasil, garantindo assim uma melhor estimativa do tempo de vida útil em estruturas de concreto.
In engineering, it is fundamental to estimate the life-cycle of built structures, which in this study means the period of time required for chlorides to reach the concrete reinforcement. One of the coefficients that affect the life-cycle of concrete is the diffusion, which is directly influenced by the saturation degree (SD) of concrete. Recent studies have led to the development of a measurement method for the SD. Although this method is efficient, there is still waste of time and money when it is used. The objective of this study is to reduce costs by
calculating a good approximation for the SD value with mathematical models that predict its value through environmental variables that affect its variation. The variables analysed in the study are: atmospheric pressure, temperature of the dry air, maximum temperature, minimum temperature, internal evaporation rate (Pichê), precipitation rate, relative humidity, insolation, visibility, cloudiness and external evaporation rate. All of them were statistically analysed and compared with measurements of SD obtained during four years of weekly assessments for different families of concrete. By considering these analyses, the relationship among these data…

▼ Understanding the neural dynamics of action selection,
planning, and execution is necessary to treat motor system
disorders. This task is complicated by the fact that neural
correlates of motor control are distributed: Single neurons rarely
exert large influences over the trajectory of the brain state as a
whole. Rather, brain states evolve according to the collective
dynamics emerging in ensembles of interacting neurons. In this
thesis I address three questions regarding collective dynamics
reflected in local field potentials (LFPs) during preparation and
execution of reach and grasp actions: (1) How do collective
dynamics affect single-neuron spiking during movement execution?
(2) How do single-neuron and population spiking relate to ongoing
~20 Hz β-LFP oscillations? (3) What are the spatiotemporal
properties of these β-LFP oscillations? In anesthetized sensory
cortex, LFPs can reflect spontaneous collective activity and
explain excess neural variability. In contrast, I find that motor
cortex LFPs during movement do not explain spiking variability
beyond that explained by the kinematics of the reaching and
grasping task examined. I show that such spiking variability is
composed of a slow movement-related component, and a fast component
related to stochastic spiking history effects. These findings
support the theory that motor cortex collective dynamics reflected
in LFPs directly relate to the control and execution of movement.
During movement preparation, β activity is elevated in both LFP and
neuronal spiking. I find that β-rhythmic spiking can be dissociated
from β-LFP oscillations. These results constrain models of
preparatory motor steady-states and raise questions about the
relationship between single-neuron spiking and population
oscillations. Furthermore, studies have found planar traveling
β-waves in motor cortex. I show that spatiotemporal dynamics in
β-oscillations can be much more diverse. Comparing β-waves to
optogenetically-induced traveling gamma waves supports the theory
that β-waves represent phase reorganization in local ongoing
oscillations, rather than propagating waves of excitation. The
statistical properties of motor cortex collective dynamics revealed
and characterized in this thesis inform biophysical models of
cortical function, with applications to research, neuroprosthetics,
and closed-loop neuromodulation.

▼ Among many weeds that cause crop loss, parthenium was found to be the most terrible one according to some exploratory studies. The problem of parthenium is not only that it cause very sever crop loss, but also it cause health problems to human and animal beings. Control of Parthenium by Farmers ,cultural and labour intensive, caused farmers to suffer from skin allergy, itching, fever, and asthma.
This study tried to popularize different Generalized
linear models for modeling agricultural data which is used for describing the data sufficiently well and then identify the natural relationship between different variables for further analayis as well as applications. Generalized
linear models (GLMs) are used to do regression modeling for non-normal data with a minimum of extra complication compared with normal
linear regression. One of the available programs that is important in current statistical practice is the GLM procedure in the SAS software package. The study is based on the result of a parthenium and other species count data, secondary data,obtained from Ethiopian instisute of Agricultre research. Descriptive statistics supported by graphical presentations have been discussed to show the dominance of parthenium on other species per plot area. Furthermore, to evaluate the probability of a plot or a quadrant to be free of parthenium, models form GLM family are applied to the data using SAS software. Based on the parameter estimates, fitted models were formulated, parameters are interpreted and comparison of fitted models conducted. In this model fitting process, an attempt was made to alleviate a confusion of which model to which data. The logit and probit model fitting gives similar results for the same data as expected and the choice of one model cannot be made based on AIC, because the AIC for both models is the same.
The poisson regression model fit is found to be inadequate for two different variables, as its Deviance value is far from one. The Negative Binomial Model gives a better fit and its Deviance shows the model is adequate for the same data used for poisson regression. The multinomial logit model for parthenium infestation in five categories as dependent variable and the sum of all other species gives a better result, as infestation level increase i.e as the severity of parthenium infestation increase, the number of the sum of other species gets low which in turn means that the probability of getting other species gets very low.

▼ Supercapacitors are used in various industrial applications and the supercapacitors technology is gradually progressing into a mature state. Common applications of supercapacitors are in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and in portable devices such as cellular phones and laptops. The capacitance values range from fractional Farads to few thousand Farads and their continuos DC voltage ratings are from 2V to 6V. At University of Waikato, a team works on using supercapacitors for improving the efficiency of
linear voltage regulators. In particular, this patented technique aims at combining off the shelfs LDO ICs and a supercapacitor array for improving end to end efficiency of
linear regulator. My work is aimed at developing the theoretical background and designing prototype circuitry for a voltage regulator for the case of unregulated input supply is more than 3 times of the minimum input voltage requirement of the LDO which is applicable for a 5V to 1.5V regulator. Experimental results are indicated with future suggestions for improvement.

▼ The work presented here is a survey of some known results in functional analysis, particularly in the field of Operator theory.
The study begins with definitions of linear spaces and some topological results which form the necessary background.Chapter two is the heart of the work and deals with operators defined on a Hilbert space with mention of operators which are generalization of linear operators on finite dimensional spaces.Chapter three looks at two classes of nonlinear operators known as Lipschitz and a-Lipschitz which frequently occur in applications. The last chapter is a brief look at the spectral theory of operators with no emphasis on a particular type of operator.

▼ We consider the issue of performing testing inferences on the parameters that index the
linear regression model under heteroskedasticity of unknown form. Quasi-t test statistics use asymptotically correct standard errors obtained from heteroskedasticity-consistent covariance matrix estimators. An alternative approach involves making an assumption about the functional form of the response variances and jointly modeling mean and dispersion effects. In this dissertation we compare the accuracy of testing inferences made using the two approaches. We consider several different quasi-t tests and also z tests performed after generalized least squares estimation which was carried out using three different estimation strategies. Our numerical evaluations were performed using different models, different sample sizes, and different heteroskedasticity strengths. The numerical evidence shows that some quasi-t tests are considerably less size distorted in small samples than the tests carried out after the jointly modeling mean and dispersion effects. Finally, we present and discuss two empirical applications.

▼ The Voronoi diagram is a fundamental geometric
structure that encodes proximity information. Given a set of
geometric objects, called sites, their Voronoi diagram is a
subdivision of the underlying space into maximal regions, such that
all points within one region have the same nearest site. Problems
in diverse application domains (such as VLSI CAD, robotics,
facility location, etc.) demand various generalizations of this
simple concept. While many generalized Voronoi diagrams have been
well studied, many others still have unsettled questions. An
example of the latter are cluster Voronoi diagrams, whose sites are
sets (clusters) of objects rather than individual objects. In this
dissertation we study certain cluster Voronoi diagrams from the
perspective of their construction algorithms and algorithmic
applications. Our main focus is the Hausdorff Voronoi diagram; we
also study the farthest-segment Voronoi diagram, as well as certain
special cases of the farthest-color Voronoi diagram. We establish a
connection between cluster Voronoi diagrams and the stabbing circle
problem for segments in the plane. Our results are as follows. (1)
We investigate the randomized incremental construction of the
Hausdorff Voronoi diagram. We consider separately the case of
non-crossing clusters, when the combinatorial complexity of the
diagram is O(n) where n is the total number of points in all
clusters. For this case, we present two construction algorithms
that require O(n log2 n) expected time. For the general case of
arbitrary clusters, we present an algorithm that requires O((m + n
log n) log n) expected time and O(m + n log n) expected space,
where m is a parameter reflecting the number of crossings between
clusters' convex hulls. (2) We present an O(n) time algorithm to
construct the farthest-segment Voronoi diagram of n segments, after
the sequence of its faces at infinity is known. This augments the
well-known
linear-time framework for Voronoi diagram of points in
convex position, with the ability to handle disconnected Voronoi
regions. (3) We establish a connection between the cluster Voronoi
diagrams (the Hausdorff and the farthest-color Voronoi diagram) and
the stabbing circle problem. This implies a new method to solve the
latter problem. Our method results in a near-optimal O(n log2 n)
time algorithm for a set of n parallel segments, and in an optimal
O(n log n) time algorithm for a set of n segments satisfying some
other special conditions. (4) We study the farthest-color Voronoi
diagram in special cases considered by the stabbing circle problem.
We prove O(n) bound for its combinatorial complexity and present an
O(nlogn) time algorithm to construct it.

▼ Early prediction of disease outbreaks and seasonal epidemics such as Influenza may reduce their impact on daily lives. Today, the web can be used for surveillance of diseases.Search engines and Social Networking Sites can be used to track trends of different diseases more quickly than government agencies such as Center of Disease Control and Prevention(CDC). Today, Social Networking Sites (SNS) are widely used by diverse demographic populations. Thus, SNS data can be used effectively to track disease outbreaks and provide necessary warnings. Although the generated data of microblogging sites is valuable for real time analysis and outbreak predictions, the volume is huge. Therefore, one of the main challenges in analyzing this huge volume of data is to find the best approach for accurate analysis in an efficient time. Regardless of the analysis time, many studies show only the accuracy of applying different machine learning approaches. Current SNS-based flu detection and prediction frameworks apply conventional machine learning approaches that require lengthy training and testing, which is not the optimal solution for new outbreaks with new signs and symptoms. The aim of this study is to propose an efficient and accurate framework that uses SNS data to track disease outbreaks and provide early warnings, even for newest outbreaks accurately. The presented framework of outbreak prediction consists of three main modules: text classification, mapping, and linear regression for weekly flu rate predictions. The text classification module utilizes the features of sentiment analysis and predefined keyword occurrences. Various classifiers, including FastText and six conventional machine learning algorithms, are evaluated to identify the most efficient and accurate one for the proposed framework. The text classifiers have been trained and tested using a pre-labeled dataset of flu-related and unrelated Twitter postings. The selected text classifier is then used to classify over 8,400,000 tweet documents. The flu-related documents are then mapped ona weekly basis using a mapping module. Lastly, the mapped results are passed together with historical Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data to a linear regression module for weekly flu rate predictions. The evaluation of flu tweet classification shows that FastText together with the extracted features, has achieved accurate results with anF-measure value of 89.9% in addition to its efficiency. Therefore, FastText has been chosen to be the classification module to work together with the other modules in the proposed framework, including the linear regression module, for flu trend predictions. The prediction results are compared with the available recent data from CDC as the ground truth and show a strong correlation of 96.2%.

▼ Linear Dimension Reduction (LDR) has many uses in engineering, business, medicine, economics, data science and others. LDR can be employed when observations are recorded with many correlated features to reduce the number of features upon which statistical inference may be necessary. Some of the benefits of LDR are to increase the signal to noise ratio in noisy data, rotate features into orthogonal space to reduce feature correlation effects, reduce the number of parameters to estimate, and decrease computational and memory costs associated with model fitting. In this manuscript, we will discuss applications of LDR to poorly-posed classification, ill-posed classification, and statistical process monitoring.

▼ In collaboration with the technical university of Twente, Leiden Probe Microscopy (LPM) has built an instrument to study thin film oxide growth during pulsed laser deposition (PLD). Thin filmed (perovskite) oxides have evoked an interest of material scientist, because they inhibit physical properties such as superconductivity, ferromagnetism, ferro- and dielectricity. Gaining more insight into the growth of such thin oxide films could provide the knowledge to control their fabrication layer by layer and thus fabricate ‘smart materials’, combining the various physical properties in a tailored manner. This research intends to use atomic force microscopy (AFM) to study the oxide growth in situ. In contrast to the commonly used method RHEED, the high spatial resolution in the order of (sub)nanometers enables an AFM to capture the local growth of islands and the nucleation density. The growing interest in in situ studies with atomic force microscopy is increasing demands on performance and in particular speed. The research in this thesis focuses on just that: the quality of the image taken by an AFM under high operating speeds. The instrument developed by LPM proves unable to retain its precision when operating speeds exceed a 20 Hz line rate. Identifying and resolving the main limiting factor of the developed instrument will be the key purpose of the work done in this thesis.

▼ A medium size Dutch insurance company with third-party car insurance products initiated questions on whether the premium can be based on a statistical analysis where the expected future liabilities are taken into account. These questions are as follows: • Which statistical models can be used to base the premiums on expected future liabilities? • Are there enough data available to predict future liabilities accurately enough? • How can the ’best’ model be chosen? • How can the models be implemented? • What are the results when using these models for the third-party car products? After a practical introduction about insurances in society, the thesis starts with theory that can be used to answer the research questions. This analysis showed that generalized
linear models are very useful models for the pricing of non-life insurance products. However, there are some disadvantages to these models which could be avoided by other models, such as hierarchical generalized
linear models. We will explore several methods to determine if enough data is available to obtain credible enough estimates. One of these methods can be applied before implementing a generalized
linear model. Choosing the ’best’ model is a non-trivial
subject. Several statistical tests to choose which risk factors should be included in the model and how they should be included are discussed. These include tests for adding risk factors as random or fixed effects, but also which definition of an risk factor should best be used. This includes whether they should be added as a variate, as a factor or added dynamically. In addition, several statistical methods to choose the distribution that has the ’best’ fit for the observations for both the number of claims and the losses are discussed. These include graphical comparison methods, but also hypothesis testing. To answer the question how the models can be implemented, we will use the statistical programming language R. Algorithms that are used by some packages to calculate the estimates of the models are discussed, as well as several features of these algorithms. Codes are provided in the supplementary section of the thesis. Next, a statistical analysis is performed for the third-party car products of the insurance company. The performed theoretical analysis is applied in practice on the available data, and unknowns were calculated. Then an analysis is performed to determine which distribution ‘best’ fits the number of claims and which distribution ‘best’ fits the losses. The data was subdivided into several risk factors, such as age and region, and was analyzed again. A generalized
linear model with a Poisson and log-link assumption was implemented for the number of claims, and a generalized
linear model with a Gamma and log-link assumption was implemented for the losses. How and if the risk factors should be added was evaluated using a bottom-up approach. Initially, the models were applied without allowing interaction between risk factors, and…

▼ We study the development of nonlinear conjugate gradient methods, Fletcher Reeves (FR) and Polak Ribiere (PR). FR extends the
linear conjugate gradient method to nonlinear functions by incorporating two changes, for the step length αk a line search is performed and replacing the residual, rk (rk=b-Axk) by the gradient of the nonlinear objective function. The PR method is equivalent to FR method for exact line searches and when the underlying quadratic function is strongly convex. The PR method is basically a variant of FR and primarily differs from it in the choice of the parameter βk. On applying the nonlinear Rosenbrock function to the MATLAB code for the FR and the PR algorithms we observe that the performance of PR method (k=29) is far better than the FR method (k=42). But, we observe that when the MATLAB codes are applied to general nonlinear functions, specifically functions whose minimum is a large negative number not close to zero and the iterates too are large values far off from zero the PR algorithm does not perform well. This problem with the PR method persists even if we run the PR algorithm for more iterations or with an initial guess closer to the actual minimum. To improve the PR algorithm we suggest finding a better weighing parameter βk, using better line search method and/or using specific line search for certain functions and identifying specific restart criteria based on the function to be optimized.

▼ Over the past several decades, dimensionalities of many datasets have grown exponentially as technology advances. Many approaches have been proposed to tackle high-dimensional problems, where dimensionality is much larger than the sample size. This dissertation focuses on developing methodologies for signal and variance component estimations in three different areas, compressive sensing, genome-wide association studies and demand forecasting in the e-commerce industry. In literature, signal and variance component estimations are usually treated as independent tasks, and this work draws the connection between these estimation goals. For the first problem in compressive sensing, we propose an algorithm that incorporates nonparametric empirical Bayes method with generalized approximate message passing (AMP). Generalized AMP is an effective algorithm for recovering signals from noisy linear measurements, assuming known a priori signal distributions. However, in practice, both the signal distribution and noise level are often unknown. We propose nonparametric maximum likelihood-AMP (NPML-AMP) for estimating an arbitrary signal distribution in this setting. In addition, we propose a simple noise variance estimator for use in conjunction with NPML-AMP. For the second problem in genome-wide association studies, we focus on heritability estimation methods related to variance components estimation problems for linear mixed models (LMMs). Heritability is the proportion of phenotype variance explained by genetic variance, and standard approaches to LMM-based heritability estimation have some unresolved inconsistencies. We suggest that by adopting a slightly different statistical perspective, many of these inconsistencies can be seamlessly resolved. Moreover, with Mahalanobis kernel, we define a natural version of heritability, as a conditional variance under the fixed-effects model. The third problem is associated with predictions for online retailing demand forecasting and genetic risk prediction. In these big-data applications, regression-based linear dimension reduction technique performs well in minimizing out-of-sample error. We identify the asymptotic risk of such sharp estimate with a model known to be misspecified. More importantly, we propose to estimate its asymptotic risk by variance component estimation discussed in the second problem. The risk evaluation technique can also be extended to the model comparison between other methods with explicit asymptotic risk.

▼ The triangle algorithm, Kalantari [4], is designed to solve the convex hull membership problem. It can also solve LP, and as shown in Kalantari[1] solve a square
linear system. In this thesis we carry out some experimentation with the triangle algorithm both for solving convex hull problem and a
linear system, however, with more emphasis on the latter problem. We first tested the triangle algorithm on the convex hull problem and made comparison with the Frank-Wolfe algorithm. The triangle algorithm outperformed the Frank-Wolfe for large scale problems, up to 10,000 points in dimensions up to 500. The triangle algorithm takes fewer iterations than the Frank-Wolfe algorithm. For
linear systems, we implemented the incremental version of the triangle algorithm in [1] and made some comparison with SOR and Gauss-Seidel methods for systems of dimension up to 1000. The triangle algorithm is more efficient than these algorithms taking fewer iterations. We also tested the triangle algorithm for solving the PageRank matrix by converting it into a convex hull membership problem. We solved the problem in dimensions ranging from 200 to 2200. We made comparisons with the power method. The triangle algorithm took less iterations to reach the same accuracy. Additionally, we tested a large scale PageRank matrix problem of size of 281,903 due to S. Kamvar. Surprisingly, the triangle algorithm took only 1 iteration to obtain a solution with the accuracy of 10
-10.

▼ This thesis will present the detailed designs and feasibility assessments of a
linear electromagnetic actuator that can be applied for Electric Power Steering System(EPS). The proposed structure integrates a
linear magnetic gear with a permanent magnet (PM) motor. This structure utilizes slotless stator and radially magnetized PM movers to form a
linear electromagnetic actuator that can offer higher force density to replace the rotary motor and the mechanical gear box. A systematic analyzing scheme will be developed to optimize the system structure within specified physical constraints and steady-state operation requirements. The magnetic fluxes and thrust generations that can be provided by the proposed system will be analyzed in detail. Finally, based on the results of finite element calculations, the designed component parameters obtained from the analytical model can be validated and the requirements of such a machine can be confirmed.

▼ Research Doctorate - Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
Log-linear modelling has proven to be a rich and diverse area of research in categorical data analysis since the 1950s. However, until the mid-1970s, the log-linear model has only considered nominal variables and did not take into consideration the structure of ordered categories. So, it was during this time that ordinal loglinear models became popular. While such models were not commonly applied at the time, they grew in use in most fields of research, especially in the social sciences. Of all of the ordinal categorical data analytic techniques that are now available, ordinal log-linear models are amid the most widely used. Traditionally, the parameters from such models have been estimated using iterative algorithms including the Newton-Raphson method and iterative proportional fitting. However, issues such as the choice of poor initial values, poor (or no) rates of convergence, excessively high number of iterations and the size of the contingency table all can hamper the estimation of the parameters using these iterative techniques. For the analysis of the association between the categorical variables of a two-way and three-way contingency table, more recent advances have been proposed for parameter estimation for ordinal log-linear models. These advances include non-iterative estimation techniques that give numerically similar estimates to those obtained using conventional iterative methods. These recently introduced non-iterative estimation methods provide an alternative, and interestingly, closed-form estimates which do not require any iteration to estimate the association parameters of the ordinal log-linear models.

▼ One of the phases of the installation of Offshore Wind Turbines is the installation of the foundation for the turbine. Herein, a monopile is one of the most frequently used foundation-types. This monopile is a high steel cylinder, over 60 meters high, which supports the wind turbine to the seabed. Currently, monopiles are lifted with large boom cranes on jack-up ships. SeaState5 has developed a more efficient method for monopile installation by using the Grasshopper-T (GH-T), a new crane which skids the monopiles from the deck and places it onto the seabed. The system reduces the weight and footprint for jack-up ships. This thesis consists of mechanical modeling the GH-T for the purpose of estimating the forces within the lifting system. A non-linear modeling method; Euler-Lagrange (EL) method with constraints is used to capture the systems dynamic, non-smooth and non-linear behavior over the entire range of motions of the upending process. Secondly, for the purpose of simplification, yet capturing the mentioned behavior, the system is linearized around several areas of operation, analyzing local detectablity and observability. Thirdly, attempts are made to design linear observers and disturbance estimator to both estimate the states of the system and any disturbance applied on the monopile, like hydrodynamic forces. Finally, a non-linear observer is proposed to estimate the states along the entire upending process of the monopile. Experiments for model validation are performed on SeaState5’s 1:25 scale prototype for which a sensor setup has been designed. Simulations show that linear observers based on the linearized model are able to estimate the states, and compute forces of interest, within a very small area of operations. The designed linear disturbance estimator proves to be ineffective in estimating disturbances and is only valid for the same small neighborhood around the equilibrium point. This motives the need for an observer capable of estimation over a broad range of motions. Therefore, a non-linear observer is designed. For the non-linear observer, the state recovery proves to be efficient and robust enough to cope with sensor noise and the high range of motions of the upending procedure. Experimental results show the model is able to capture the non-linear behavior of the real system and estimate forces of interest within acceptable margins, showing promises for an online state estimation using the non-linear observer.

▼ Sliding mode control (SMC) has been successfully applied to many practical control problems due to its attractive features such as invariance to matched uncertainties. The characteristic feature of a continuous-time SMC system is that sliding mode occurs on a prescribed manifold, where switching control is employed to maintain the state on the surface. When a sliding mode is realized, the system exhibits some superior robustness properties with respect to external matched uncertainties. However, the realization of the ideal sliding mode requires switching with an infinite frequency. Control algorithms are now commonly implemented in digital electronics due to the increasingly affordable microprocessor hardware although the essential conceptual framework of the feedback design still remains to be in the continuous-time domain. Discrete sliding mode control has been extensively studied to address some basic questions associated with the sliding mode control of discrete-time systems with relatively low switching frequencies. However, the complex dynamical behaviours due to discretization in continuous-time SMC systems have not yet been fully explored. In this thesis, the discretization behaviours of SMC systems are investigated. In particular, one of the most frequently used discretization schemes for digital controller implementation, the zero-order-holder discretization, is studied. First, single-input SMC systems are discretized, stability and boundary conditions of the digitized SMC systems are derived. Furthermore, some inherent dynamical properties such as periodic phenomenon, of the discretized SMC systems are studied. We also explored the discretization behaviours of the disturbed SMC systems. Their steady-state behaviours are discussed using a symbolic dynamics approach under the constant and periodic matched uncertainties. Next, discretized high-order SMC systems and sliding mode based observers are explored using the same analysis method. At last, the thesis investigates discretization effects on the SMC systems with multiple inputs. Some conditions are first derived for ensuring the "pseudo" sliding motion and guaranteeing the boundedness of the steady-states. Selection of sampling period is also discussed. Some intrinsic properties of trajectories of the discretized SMC systems are investigated by using the new concepts of symbolic vector and symbolic vector sequence. Various periodic behaviours are fully explored. Simulations are presented to validate the analysis.

▼ Saeed [11] has considered Schur multipliers of some of the finite abelian groups.The study of the schur multipliers of abelian groups is the first step in the studying of the projective representations of such groups. Our objective here is to determine the Inequivalent Irreducible projective representations of these groups which correspond to certain classes of factor sets.
Let On' denote the direct product of n cyclic m groups C of order m. Then in [9] and [10] the
a-regular classes have been determined; these being the classes at which non trivial projective representations with factor set a take on non zero character values. Here we review these results, and determine the Inequivalent Irreducible characters corresponding to these a-regular classes. In particular, a complete set of irreducible inequivalent projective characters is obtained for these classes.
The following is a brief description of how the work in the sequel has been organised. Chapter one gives the basic facts about factor sets and projective representations of finite groups together with some of their properties. The concepts of schur multipliers and twisted group algebras are also considered. The central(vii)and stem extensions of finite groups are discussed in chapter two; while chapter three is concerned with projective character theory. Here the interest is in reviewing those properties of projective characters which are analogous to those of ordinary characters. Finally the work in the previous chapters is applied in chapter four to obtain the irreducible projective characters of certain finite abelian groups; and the results follow the works of Morris and Saeed (c.f [8], [9], [10] and [11].)
