  1. 1. Seasonal Variability of Ice Nucleating Particles (INP) in Southern Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Tamina Kabir; [2023-03-08]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Cloud ice crystals are formed by ice-nucleating particles (INPs). The micro-physical properties of clouds, precipitation formation and the life cycle of clouds are strongly influenced by the presence or absence of ice. Therefore knowledge of atmospheric INP concentrations is crucial to improve weather forecasting and climate projections. READ MORE

  3. 2. Robust Portfolio Optimization with Correlation Penalties

    University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Pelle Nydahl; [2023]
    Keywords : Portfolio Optimization; Portfolio Allocation; Robust Optimization; Correlation; Risk Factor Model; EMA Filtering; Weighted Linear Regression; Portföljoptimering; Portföljallokering; Robust optimering; Korrelation; Riskfaktor-modell; EMA-filtrering; Viktad linjär regression;

    Abstract : Robust portfolio optimization models attempt to address the standard optimization method's high sensitivity to noise in the parameter estimates, by taking an investor's uncertainty about the estimates into account when finding an optimal portfolio. In this thesis, we study robust variations of an extension of the mean-variance problem, where an additional term penalizing the portfolio's correlation with an exogenous return sequence is included in the objective.

  4. 3. Wrist Angle Estimation Using Two Wearable Inertial Measurement Units

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Arvin Razavi; [2023]
    Keywords : IMU wrist angle estimation; Wrist absolute angle; IMU-based human motion capture; orientation filter; Complementary filter; Kalman filter; IMU handledsvinkeluppskattning; handleds absolutvinkel; IMU-baserad mänsklig rörelsefångst; orienteringsfilter; komplementfilter; Kalman-filter;

    Abstract : Hand-intensive work is closely related to the prevalence of upper body and hand/wrist work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) in office work, manufacturing, service industries, as well as the healthcare industry. Some risk factors include vibrations, forceful exertions, heavy manual handling, repetitive motions, and prolonged nonneutral wrist postures. READ MORE

  5. 4. Implementing Kalman Filtering Algorithms for Estimating Clamp Force on a Test Rig : Testing the Power and Limitations of Unscented Kalman Filter-based Estimations

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Tim Naser; [2023]
    Keywords : Clamping Froce; Kalman Filtering; Unscented Kalman Filtering; Tightening; Consequence of User Errors During Tightening; Velocity Profiles; Klämkraft; Kalman Filtrering; Unscented Kalman Filtrering; Åtdragning; Konsekvens av Användarfel Under Åtdragning; Hastightersprofiler.;

    Abstract : his study explores clamp force estimation using Unscented Kalman Filtering (UKF) in torque-controlled tightening scenarios with various velocity profiles. Previous research has explored the impact of velocity levels on target torque and clamping force, but only using hand-held tools. READ MORE

  6. 5. Estimation of Parabolic Microwave Antenna Movements Using Sensor Fusion

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för reglerteknik

    Author : Nikhil Challa; [2023]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Wireless communication has seamlessly integrated itself into our daily lives, with Ericsson pioneering the development of comprehensive mobile ecosystems. As the demand for data traffic continues to surge, the enhancement of both cellular radio systems and backhaul infrastructure remains paramount. READ MORE
