A mathematical model of Limiting Dilution Analysis for two limiting
parameters is presented and investigated. Limiting Dilution Analysis is a microbiological
cell assay developed for immunological application. In the given
case we deal with the interaction between B lymphocytes, macrophage derived
factor and T-independent antigens. The state of the art...
It is popular belief that the volatility of the exchange rate is due
to the balance of payments, which in turn is mainly influenced by the
balance of trade. A closed-loop dynamic economic model is proposed
to describe and analyse the effect of the international trade of a
country on...
The objective of this thesis is to develop criteria for a data
acquisition system for electrical machinery capable of sampling a
signal every 0.2 msec with a desired accuracy of 0.1%. The system to
be measured includes both AC and DC voltage and current signals from
several points. The main...
A simulation method using a hybrid computer is developed in
this dissertation to enhance the study of wind-driven ocean circulation.
The simulation is based on the mathematical model developed by
Ekman. Pure digital simulation is not economical due to excessive
computer time required for the solution of the partial differential...
This thesis presents work done to verify the accuracy of a
heuristic method for computing availability percentiles for
cascaded independent systems. Previous work has provided a model
for a single line that will be used as the basis for a simulation
of cascaded and parallel systems of lines. The simulation...
This thesis presents a simulation technique for the
post-detection of a point-source trajectory in an
isotropic, stationary random medium. The two-dimensional
source location is estimated from spatially correlated
angle-of-arrival data which are collected simultaneously at
two sensor positions. We assume that the data are collected
at discrete, constant time intervals...
A compartmental model of lymphocyte circulation
through a lymphnode is derived and simulated. The
purpose of the model is to analyze experimental data and
in turn design experimental plans from the analysis in
order to obtain sufficient data for the organ-distributed
immune response. The model will be used to predict...
Mathematical models for the doubly-fed machine are
presented. The properties of the machine with rotor excitation as supplied by a power converter with voltage
source character are reviewed. The peculiar torque-speed
characteristic of the machine in this operating mode and
its effect on the stability of the machine are presented....
A general discrete-time, adaptive, multidimensional framework is introduced
for estimating the motion of one or several object features from their successive
non-linear projections on an image plane. The motion model consists of
a set of linear difference equations with parameters estimated recursively from
a non-linear observation equation. The model dimensionality...
