  1. 11. Temperature distribution and charring penetrations in timber assemblies exposed to parametric fire curves : Comparisons between tests and TASEF predictions

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Isac Andersson; Niklas Ek; [2017]
    Keywords : TASEF; Delamination; Timber beams; Parametric fire curves; Fire tests; Charring; Eurocode; TASEF; Delaminering; Träbalkar; Parametriska brandkurvor; Brandtester; Förkolning; Eurocode;

    Abstract : Four furnace tests have been performed using two different parametric fire curves and the results are compared with computer simulations and Eurocode calculations. What differentiates the parametric fire curve from other fire curves is in particular the cooling phase, something that has proven to be hard to model for timber structures. READ MORE

  5. 14. Regression-Based Monte Carlo For Pricing High-Dimensional American-Style Options

    University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik

    Author : Niklas Andersson; [2016]
    Keywords : American options; Monte Carlo; Robust Regression; Quasi Monte Carlo; Importance sampling;

    Abstract : Pricing different financial derivatives is an essential part of the financial industry. For some derivatives there exists a closed form solution, however the pricing of high-dimensional American-style derivatives is still today a challenging problem. READ MORE

  6. 15. Variable pay as a predictor of earnings management

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Företagsekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Niklas Frisk; Max Andersson; [2016]
    Keywords : Earnings management; Discretionary accruals; Variable pay; Compensation; Modified Jones model; Agency-principal theory;

    Abstract : This paper examines the relationship between executive compensation – in the form ofvariable pay – and earnings management. Since most research is done on Americancompanies, and Swedish companies are adopting a more Anglo-American compensationstructure, we would like to study this in Sweden. READ MORE
