  1. 1. Prediction of Volatility and Value at Risk with Copulas for Portfolios of Commodities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Matematisk statistik

    Author : Felix Mörée; [2016]
    Keywords : Commodities; Copula; GARCH; VaR; Mathematics and Statistics;

    Abstract : Value at Risk (VaR) is a popular measurement for valuing the risk exposure. Correct estimates of VaR are essential in order to properly be able to monitor the risk. This thesis examines a copula approach for estimating VaR for portfolios of commodities. The predictions are made from a semi- parametric model with Monte Carlo methods. READ MORE

  4. 3. Shear Capacity in Adhesive Glass-Joints

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Byggnadsmekanik; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Oskar Larsson; [2008]
    Keywords : Glass; Structural Glass; Adhesive; Glue; Silicone; Adhesive Joint; FEM; Finite Element; Linear-Elastic; Hyper-Elastic; Shear Capacity.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In this report the shear-capacity of adhesive glass-joints was investigated. A number of various adhesives were tested; glues and silicones. Tests were conducted with small specimens to evaluate the characteristics of the adhesives. With the results of the tests material models were evaluated in the finite element program Abaqus. READ MORE
