  1. 1. The Strong Potential of ΛΛ Femtoscopy at HADES

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Kärnfysik

    Author : Malin Bohman; [2022]
    Keywords : hyperon; hyperons; Λ hyperon; ΛΛ; femtoscopy; correlation studies; strong interaction; hyperon interaction; hyperon interactions; HADES;

    Abstract : The aims of this thesis project have been to determine the feasibility of hyperon reconstruction utilizing a newly developed and implemented vertex fitter based on the Lagrange multiplier method. This was achieved through simulation and subsequent analysis of the reaction specified below, detailing the production of Λ-hyperon and K+ -meson pairs from proton-proton collisions. READ MORE

  3. 2. Suturing in Surgical Simulations

    University essay from KTH/Numerisk analys, NA

    Keywords : Surgical suturing; spline model; Lagrange constraints; multibody dynamics; differential algebraic equations; Kirurgisk suturering; spline-modell; Lagrange-begränsningar; multikroppsdynamik; differentiella algebraiska ekvationer;

    Abstract : The goal of this project is to develop virtual surgical simulation software in order to simulate the suturing and knot tying processes associated with surgical thread. State equations are formulated using Lagrangian mechanics, which is useful for the conservation of energy. READ MORE

  4. 3. The Information Bottleneck : Connections to Other Problems, Learning and Exploration of the IB Curve

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Borja Rodriguez Galvez; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the information bottleneck (IB) method. This is an informationtheoretic framework which addresses the question of what are the relevant factors of arandom variable X to explain another statistically dependent random variable Y . Thesefactors are embedded into a bottleneck variable T obeying the Markov condition Y $X $ T. READ MORE
