  • Functional expansions in bilinear system analysis

    Creator:
    Karanam, Veerabhadra Rao
    Abstract:
    Bilinear systems, encountered in many important applications of engineering, biological and socio-economic systems, represent the logical step in complexity between the linear systems which are inadequate in the modeling of various dynamic processes and the difficult realm of nonlinear systems. This dissertation studies two functional expansions in bilinear system analysis-...

  • Parameter and volterra-kernel estimation of bilinear systems

    Creator:
    Baheti, Radhakisan Sohanlal
    Abstract:
    It has been established that bilinear models occur frequently in nature and offer some important advantages from the standpoint. of controllability, optimization and modeling. The estimation of bilinear systeim models from the Measurements of input-output data are discussed. In the first approach a parametric model of a discrete-time linear system...

  • Bilinear control processes with application to immunology

    Creator:
    Hsu, Chin-Shung
    Abstract:
    As a significant class of nonlinear systems, bilinear systems (BLS) are extensively developed in the past years. In addition to their advantages over linear systems which are often not adequate to represent accurately many control processes, the BLS are particularly appealing in modeling biological systems in which parametric controls are...

  • A computer controlled robot analyzer for in situ water quality monitoring

    Creator:
    Birch, Kenneth Norman
    Abstract:
    A new, computer oriented system for automatic, in situ monitoring of water quality is proposed which makes full and effective use of modern computer technology. The main objective of this thesis work was the development of the concept for in situ computer controlled experimenting as a reasonable and effective means...

  • Compartmental analysis of the immune system

    Creator:
    Lawrence, Karen
    Abstract:
    A compartmental model of the immune system is simulated. Chapter I discusses the importance of such a model, reviews past immune system models, and summaries the immunological theory the model is based upon. In Chapter II, the compartmental representation of the immune system is developed from immunological and physiological theory....

  • Multiple-fault detection in iterative arrays

    Creator:
    Ramamurti, Chandramouli
    Abstract:
    With the advent of LSI, iterative forms of realization of digital systems are becoming increasingly popular with system designers. Many problems occurring in digital computer design render themselves suitable for iterative realization. These include adders, arithmetic logic units, coding and decoding circuits and so on. Fault-free functioning of such systems...

  • Design of a mini-computer controlled digital integrated circuit tester

    Creator:
    Fasang, Patrick Pad, 1941-
    Abstract:
    The purpose of the thesis is to design, construct, program, and test an automatic integrated circuit test system. The class of integrated circuits tested was restricted to digital integrated circuits. The general concept of testing a digital integrated circuit is based on the truth table of that circuit. A combination...

  • Simplification of large linear systems using two-step iterative method

    Creator:
    Shoji, Fumihiro Frank
    Abstract:
    The order of the practical system (e.g. nuclear power plants, electrical power network and chemical plant) is quite large. However, there are many limitations in computing facilities for the large system. Because of these limitations, it is often necessary to reduce the order of the large system using an approximation....

  • REGTRAN and MICRO, the implementation of two digital system simulators

    Creator:
    Baheti, Padma R.
    Abstract:
    REGTRAN (REGister TRANsfer), a hardware description language and SYSSIM (SYStems SIMulation), a simulator for the system described by REGTRAN were originally developed by Edward Pett, Jr [33] at the University of Texas at Austin. These two programs are successfully used to simulate many digital systems of complex nature. It is...
