▼ This work investigates two different digital signal processing (DSP) approaches that rely on signal-derived timing: continuous-time (CT) DSP and variable-rate DSP. Both approaches enable designs of energy-efficient signal processing systems by relating their operation rates to the input activity. The majority of this thesis focuses on CT-DSP, whose operations are completely digital in CT, without the use of a clock. The spectral features of CT digital signals are analyzed first, demonstrating a general pattern of the quantization noise spectrum added in CT amplitude quantization. Then the focus is narrowed to the investigations of the system characteristics and architecture of CT digital infinite-impulse-response (IIR) filters, which are barely studied in the previous work on this topic. This thesis discusses and addresses previously unreported stability issue in CT digital IIR filters with the presence of delay-line mismatches and proposes an innovative method to design high-order CT digital IIR filters with only two tap delays. Introducing an event detector allows the operation rate of a CT digital IIR filter to closely track the input activity even though it is a feedback system. For the first time, the filtered CT digital signal is converted to a synchronous digital signal. This facilitates integrating the CT digital filter and conventional discrete-time systems and expands the applications of the former. This discussion uses a computationally efficient interpolation filter to improve the signal accuracy of the synchronous digital output. On the circuit level, a new delay-cell design is introduced. It ensures low jitter, good matching, robust communication with adjacent circuits and event-independent delay. An integrated circuit (IC) with all these ideas adopted was fabricated in a TSMC 65 nm LP CMOS process. It is the first IC implementation of a CT digital IIR filter. It can process signals with a data rate up to 20 MHz. Thanks to the IIR response and the 16-bit resolution used in the system, the implemented filter can achieve a frequency response much more versatile and accurate than the CT digital filters in prior art. The implemented system features an agile power adaptive to input activity, varying from 2.32mW (full activity) to 40μW (idle) with no power-management circuitry. The second part of the thesis discusses a variable-rate DSP capable of processing samples with a variable sampling rate. The clock rate in the variable-rate DSP tracks the input sampling rate. Compared to a fixed-rate DSP, the proposed system has a lower output data rate and hence is more computationally efficient. A reconstruction filter with a variable cutoff frequency is used to reconstruct the output. The signal-to-noise ratio remains fixed when the sampling rate changes.

▼ The thesis includes two projects related to the detection of group difference of health risk behavior using time-varying effect models. In the first project, we proposed to use a time-varying effect model to characterize gender-specific trajectories of health behaviors, and we also conducted hypothesis testing for gender differences. We first used two motivating examples which demonstrated that the proposed model works for both the longitudinal studies and the short-term studies that involve intensive data collection. Then a simulation study is conducted, which shows that the accuracy of estimation of trajectory functions improves as the sample size and the number of time points increase. In terms of the performance of the hypothesis testing, the type I error rates are close to their corresponding significance levels under all combinations of sample size and number of time points. In addition, the power increases as the alternative hypothesis deviates more from the null hypothesis, and the rate of this increasing trend is higher when the sample size and the number of time points are larger. The second project proposed to use a time-varying effect model for examining group differences in trajectories of zero-inflated count outcomes. The motivating example demonstrates that this zero-inflated Poisson model allows investigators to study group differences in different aspects of substance use (e.g. the probability of abstinence and the quantity of alcohol use) simultaneously. The simulation study shows that the accuracy of estimation of trajectory functions improves as the sample size increases; the accuracy under equal group sizes is only higher when the sample size is small (100). By examining the performance of the hypothesis testing, we found that the type I error rates are close to their corresponding significance levels under all settings. On the other hand, the power also increases as the alternative hypothesis deviates more from the null hypothesis and the rate of this increasing trend is higher when the sample size is larger. Moreover, the hypothesis test for the group difference in the zero component tends to be less powerful than the test for the group difference in the Poisson component.

▼ Prognostics in engineering field is dedicated to predicting how long further a component or a system will perform their intended functions before failure. Prognostics is an essential building block in condition based maintenance. Accurate prediction of the component remaining useful life provides valuable information to decision making on maintenance planning, mission planning and logistics. Preventive actions based on remaining useful life prediction can dramatically avoid unscheduled downtime, reduce operational risk and cost, and improve the safety of the working environment. This thesis is devoted to developing integrated prognostics methods for the remaining useful life prediction of a specific component by integrating physics of failure and condition monitoring data. The first contribution of the thesis is that by combining physics and data effectively, the proposed method overcomes the limitations of existing prognostics approaches, which are mainly either physics based or data-driven. To account for the uncertainty in failure times of units in population, parameters are treated as random variables in physical degradation models. By noticing the uniqueness of the failure time for a specific unit, this study utilizes Bayesian inference to reduce the uncertainty in model parameters, which leads to a more accurate prediction on remaining useful life of the specific unit. This thesis also proposes an integrated prognostics method for the component operating under time-varying operating conditions. The capability to directly relate the load to the degradation rate is a key advantage of the proposed method over the existing data-driven methods when dealing with time-varying operating conditions. This is the second main contribution of this thesis. To cater to real-time applications of condition based maintenance, an efficient spectral method named polynomial chaos expansion is investigated for uncertainty quantification in prognostics. The proposed method is able to accelerate the uncertainty quantification in the integrated prognostics method and the computational efficiency is significantly improved, which is the third main contribution of this thesis. In addition, this thesis accounts for two important factors when developing integrated prognostics method: uncertainty in damage initiation time and shock in the degradation. These two factors have not been explicitly considered for prognostics purpose in the existing research. By simultaneously adjusting both the damage initiation time and the model parameters, the prediction accuracy is improved. The failure time reduction caused by the shock is accommodated by identifying a virtual damage initiation time. This work consists of the fourth main contribution. The integrated prognostics methods developed in this thesis are applied to spur gears. Two types of failure modes are considered. One is the tooth fracture due to bending stress and the other one is the surface wear due to sliding contact. Validation is conducted using a run-to-failure experiment on a planetary…

▼ This dissertation studies the information content of the S&P 500 index option-implied risk neutral distribution (RND). Our premise is that the long- and short-range persistence in the RND, related respectively to slow structural changes and transient risk factors, contain predictive information. Early literature on RND extraction spans a large number of estimation methods, but we propose extracting the RND using the highly flexible and implementable Generalised Lambda distribution (GLD). This extraction method is motivated by the need for a tractable method which is both straightforward to implement and yields economically interpretable RND moment estimates for financial applications. In a simulation study, we show that extraction by the GLD yields accurate estimates of the RND moments overall. This is true particularly of risk neutral skewness and kurtosis where scarce, discrete tail options price data may affect the estimation accuracy of the popular Bakshi, Kapadia and Madan (2003) model-free method. We test significantly for the presence of structural breaks in the RND moments and model these phenomena with long memory methods. Long memory methods serve as a convenient mathematical construct for capturing the effects of structural change in the RND moment dynamics. Analysing the RND moments in a fractionally integrated vector autoregression framework (FIVARX), we find evidence, consistent with previous literature, of significant co-moment relations. Furthermore, long-term RND persistence is related to macroeconomic influences, whereas short-term persistence is linked to short-term financial market volatility. The FIVARX modelling approach produces superior out-of-sample RND moment forecasts compared to alternative vector models. Finally, we apply Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) to assess the degree of predictive information contained in the RND for the future underlying asset price. HMMs are conditioned on RND-based measures of information derived from the long- and short-term RND moment persistence, as well as the RND quantiles. HMMs specified with long-term RND persistence and tail quantiles significantly outperform the benchmark HMM model in out-of-sample forecasts. Notably, our results suggest that RND-based information is predictive of the future market state governing the observed underlying asset price.

▼ The main contribution of this work is to investigate the entrainment in plumes with constant and time-varying source conditions experimentally. The study aims to build up an experiment rig to conduct the bulk entrainment measurement in plumes. Secondly, the study aims to examine the influences the forcing frequency and amplitude have on entrainment in pulsing plumes, where the flow rate, momentum and buoyancy are sinusoidal functions of time. Finally, the study aims to investigate the validity of the integral model for pure plumes with constant source conditions established by Morton et al. (Proc R Soc Lond A 234(1196):1–23, 1956) in pulsing plumes, as well as the virtual origin correction method for lazy plumes proposed by Hunt and Kaye (J Fluid Mech 435:377–396, 2001) in both constant source plumes and pulsing plumes. Experiments were conducted to verify the pulses in pulsing plumes. Plumes are formed by issuing saline fluid downwards into a less dense uniform environment from a round pipe. The pulsing flow is generated by a programmable ISMATEC gear pump. The evolution of the pulses in pulsing plumes is revealed by applying the light-attenuation method with high frequency imaging. Pulsing is shown to affect the development of the flow, as the forcing frequency at the source dominates the frequency of the flow downstream. To study the bulk entrainment in pulsing plumes, turbulent axisymmetric lazy plumes with constant source conditions were examined initially. The bulk dilution and entrainment measurements were achieved by using the experimental approach of Hunt and Kaye (J Fluid Mech 435:377–396, 2001). The integral relationship for the local flow rate Q(z) and local momentum M(z) from the model established by Morton et al. (Proc R Soc Lond A 234(1196):1–23, 1956) for constant source plumes was used to determine the average local entrainment. Experiments with pulsing plumes were carried out with a flow rate amplitude ranged from 33% to 80% and the non-dimensional frequency - Strouhal number 〖St=fD/U〗_0 ranged from 0.012 to 1.2, where the maximum frequency f of this pulsing plume is in the order of the eddy turnover time scale at the source, D is the source diameter and U_0 is the average velocity at the source. The entrainment coefficient was determined in pulsing plumes and was found within the range of the entrainment values in plumes with constant source conditions. The influence of the forcing frequency and amplitude is examined, and found to be very small over the entire range of source conditions considered. The virtual origin correction method of Hunt and Kaye (J Fluid Mech 435:377–396, 2001) is found to give a reasonably good estimation in predicting the virtual origin in pulsing plumes. The results suggest that the local entrainment velocity is proportional to the time-average local plume velocity even in pulsing plumes where the local velocity is varying with time. This supports the application of the integral model of Morton et al. (Proc R Soc Lond A 234(1196):1–23, 1956) to building…

▼ Chip level optical interconnects has gained momentum with recent demonstrations of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) based photonic modules such as lasers, modulators, wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) filters, etc. A fundamental building block that has enabled many of these silicon photonic modules is the compact, high Q factor microring resonator cavity. However, most of these demonstrations have WDM processing components based on simple add-drop filters that cannot realize the dense WDM systems required for the chip level interconnects. Dense WDM filters have stringent spectral shape requirements such as flat-top filter passband, steep band transition etc. Optical filters that can meet these specifications involve precise placement of the poles and zeros of the filter transfer function. Realization of such filters requires the use of multiple coupled microring resonators arranged in complex coupling topologies. In this thesis we have proposed and demonstrated new multiple coupled resonator topologies based on compact microring resonators in SOI material system. First we explored novel microring architectures which resulted in the proposal of two new coupled microring architectures, namely, the general 2D microring array topology and the general cascaded microring network topology. We also developed the synthesis procedures for these two microring architectures. The second part of this thesis focussed on the demonstration of the proposed architectures in the SOI material system. To accomplish this, a fabrication process for SOI was developed at the UofA Nanofab facility. Using this process, ultra-compact single microring filters with microring radii as small as 1um were demonstrated. Higher order filter demonstration with multiple microrings necessitated post-fabrication microring resonance tuning. We developed additional fabrication steps to install micro heaters on top of the microrings to thermally tune its resonance. Subsequently, a thermally tuned fourth order filter response based on the cascaded microring architecture was demonstrated.

[pt] O objetivo deste trabalho é apresentar alguns resultados referentes ao estudo da sensibilidade da reposta impulsional de sistemas lineares, causais, a tempo discreto e monovariáveis a aproximações nos coeficientes das equações a diferenças finitas que os representam. São estudados primeiramente sistemas variantes no tempo representados por matrizes de estado nas formas canônicas diagonal e de Jordan, sendo analisado o caso invariante como uma particularização. Tais formas canônicas permitem obter diretamente a sensibilidade da resposta impulsional do sistema em relação aos autovalores, que são, no caso de invariância, os pólos do mesmo. A seguir são tratados sistemas variantes no tempo com equações de diferenças finitas de forma qualquer, explorando-se funções de dependência entre os diversos coeficientes. Todo o estudo é baseado em técnicas do domínio do tempo e álgebra matricial. A impossibilidade de se trabalhar de modo simples no domínio da freqüência com sistemas variantes, fez com que este não fosse utilizado nem nos casas particulares da classe mais geral dos sistemas variantes.

[en] The objective of this work is to present some results on the sensitivity of the weighting sequence (impulse response) of linear, causal, monovariable, discrete-time systems to approximations of the coefficients of the difference equations that model them. The first part of the work is devoted to systems represented in canonical representations diagonal and Jordan forms; the time-invariant case is studied as a particularization. These canonical forms allow the sensitivity to be determined as a function of the model eigenvalues and, in the time-invariant case, of the poles of the transfer function. The second part addresses systems represented in general forms. The whole work is based on time-domain techniques. Frequency-domain techniques were not used due to the fact that they are more difficult than in the time-invariant case.

▼ This research is mainly focused on the time-inconsistency during policy making process. It contains three chapters as follows: Chapter One is to research into the time-inconsistency problem in policy making with extensive form games. The paper divides the game into four scenarios: one-stage independent game, one-stage forecasting game, finite stage forecasting game and infinite period game. The first two games show that neither government nor public want to be type 1 and government always has an incentive to deviate from announced policy. The last two games are mainly focused on the possibilities that both players want to randomize their strategies. The games are able to conclude that players only randomize under certain conditions. Chapter Two is to prove the existence of time-inconsistent monetary policy in the U.S. empirically by applying both non-parametric method and rolling estimation for time varying analyses along with the asymmetric policy preference model, this paper proposes that with almost every recession since 1960, the rolling method reaches a break point shortly before or right at the recession date and that the non-parametric method reaches a peak for every recession that is not caused by supply shock. In addition, this paper uses the chain-weighted PCE index to conclude that there exists time-inconsistent policy preference over different recession periods, and also to compare results with the chain-weighted GDP index. The study discovers that the PCE index in general will result higher targeted inflation rate than the GDP index, and policy preferences are different during pre- and post-recessions with both indexes. Chapter Three is extending the empirical analysis to different countries by studying the policy preferences of pre- and post-recession periods. Most countries depict their policy preferences as time-inconsistent. Moreover, by adjusting the non-stationarity problem in the data during the first-stage regression, the paper is able to capture the differences between both analyses. The study concludes that only Italy, Netherlands and Canada are not affected by non-stationarity problem that much and both analyses can reach a general consistent results; whereas the rest countries are greatly affected by the non-stationarity problem, especially the US and UK.

▼ From the resource-based view of the firm, good stakeholder relations provide sustainable competitive advantages. To manage their scarce resources effectively, firms should understand how (1) multiple stakeholder relations influence firm performance separately and jointly through brand equity over time and (2) stakeholder relations interact with firms’ strategic emphasis – a relative emphasis by which firms decide to allocate their resources toward value creation or appropriation. Using a sample of 165 North American firms during 2009-2015, the authors apply a hierarchical linear model (HLM) approach to measure the time-varying effects of multiple stakeholder relationships on firm performance. Following the classification of stakeholders in the literature, the authors subdivide multiple stakeholders into two categories: primary stakeholders that are essential for business operations and secondary stakeholders that are not essential for the survival of the firm. The results show the existence of individual time-varying effects of primary and secondary stakeholder relations on brand equity, as well as a time-varying synergistic effect. The authors find a slightly higher, but statistically insignificant, positive effect of primary stakeholder relations on brand equity than of secondary stakeholder relations. In addition, the authors find that when firms focus more on value creation, the effect of primary stakeholder relations on brand equity is stronger than is the effect of secondary stakeholder relations and vice versa. Brand equity is found to fully mediate the effect of relations with each group of stakeholders on long-term firm performance and to partially mediate the synergistic effect between primary and secondary stakeholders on long-term firm performance. These findings offer insights for managers to make strategic decisions about effectively and efficiently managing stakeholder relations considering their time-varying effects.

I detta examensarbete presenteras en ny metod för att göra schemaläggningsbeslut inom processindustrin och samtidigt ta hänsyn till det dynamiska beteendet hos processen. En modell av en luftsepareringsanläggning som producerar kvävgas och utnyttjar ett rörligt elpris användes för att exemplifiera denna metod. Modellen omfattade en kryogenisk destillationskolonn med en integrerad återloppskokare /kondensator, en multiströms värmeväxlare, en kompressor, två turbiner och en kondensator. Den innehöll 5079 ekvationer och 437 differentiella variabler. Dynamisk optimering användes för att approximera det dynamiska beteendet hos processen vid skiftningar mellan olika driftpunkter. Den registrerade data utnyttjades sedan för att identifiera en reducerad modell som fångade det transienta beteendet hos relevanta processvariabler. Den reducerade modellen bestod av 525 ekvationer och 67 differentiella variabler. Den identifierade modellen visade på god matchning mellan relevanta processvariabler i de simulerade övergångarna och den reducerade modellen. Den reducerade modellen användes för att optimera schemaläggningen av luftsepareringsprocessen så att elkostnaden över en tredagars period minimerades. De optimala resultaten visade på en minskning av kostnaden på 2.6 % jämfört med en konstant produktionstakt. Schemat implementerades och simulerades i den fullt dynamiska modellen över de första 24 timmarna för att jämföra relevanta processvariabler med den reducerade modellen. Resultaten visade på god matchning mellan de båda modellerna. Detta examensarbete visar att en exakt reducerade modell kan användas för att snabbt hitta ett optimalt schema över ett större processystem. Detta genom att kraftigt minska systemets storlek utan att offra noggrannhet av det dynamiska beteendet.

A novel framework for making plant scheduling decisions while considering the plant process dynamics is presented in this thesis. A model of an air separation unit built to supply nitrogen gas and subject to time-varying electricity prices was used to illustrate this framework. The model includes a cryogenic distillation column with an integrated reboiler/condenser, a multi-stream heat exchanger, a compressor, two turbines, and a liquefier. It consisted of 5079 equations and 437 differential variables. The dynamic behavior of the process during operating point transitions was determined using dynamic optimization. This data were used to establish a reduced order dynamic model of the system which captures the transient behavior of relevant process variables. The reduced order model consisted of 525 equations and 67 differential variables. The identified model showed a good fit between the relevant process variables in the simulated transitions and the reduced order model. The air separation unit process schedule was optimized using the reduced order model to…
