This work is dealing with airplane control.

The work is based on the JACC conference from 1970, where the time domain specifications on the step response of the normal acceleration n^z (perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the airplane) and its derivative are given, so that all step responses shall entirely lie within the specifications with a probability of at least 85%.

This MS thesis report provides documentation of results and experience obtained during the spring 1974. The main purpose is to show the construction of an interactive program package, which is used for simulations of some special types of adaptive controllers, called self-tuning regulators. According to the experience at the division, the program package is command driven. A part of the report pre

This report includes:

A definition of a language suitable for the description of nonlinear systems.

Development of FORTRAN-routines that performs a compilation of the language to a pseudo-code and a routine to interpret and execute this code.

The welding of the compiler and the execution-routine into a complete interactive simulation-package.

In this report are discussed different algorithms for the state estimation problem according to the Kalman theory. It is shown that the highest accuracy is obtained with av algorithm consisting of three non-negative definite parts, but that shorter algorithms may be sufficient for certain systems. The necessity of enforcing symmetry on the algorithms is discussed together with different methods fo

I detta examensarbete behandlas numeriska algoritmer för att tranformera systemet S(A,B,C,D) på observerbar och styrbar kanonisk form. Programmen kan även användas för att beräkna koefficienterna i överföringsfunktionen för S(A,B,C,D).

Cancer is a disease affecting practically the entire society in one way or another. A great effort is made to find a cure and positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) has recently become a vital part to achieve this goal. The reason for this is because PET/CT provides an opportunity to obtain more tumor information than other techniques, which in turn could improve cancer treatmen

As the need of environmentally friendly alternatives to fossil fuels is growing bigger, so is the need for knowledge and research around possible new raw materials that could serve that pur-pose. One discussed product is biogas. Since biogas can be produced from not only food waste and wastewater residue, but from any substrate that contains fats, proteins and/or car-bohydrates, with the help of d

This thesis explores how theories of nationalism can be applied to analyze the Swedish drug policy discourse during the years 1967-2011. The study is conducted by using a theoretical framework, consisting of the theory of banal nationalism and nationalism as a discursive formation, to serve as a tool to critically understand positions in the discourse. The material that constitutes the drug policy

I februari 2016 lämnade Barnrättighetsutredningen förslag på hur barnkonventionen ska inkorporeras i svensk rätt. Uppsatsens syfte har varit att belysa detta förslag utifrån principen om barnets bästa, och dess frågeställning har varit om principen om barnets bästa skulle påverkas av en inkorporering, och i så fall hur. Fokus har legat på betydelsen av barnets bästa i 6 kap. föräldrabalken (FB) gäIn February 2016 The Inquiry on the rights of the child handed over a proposal for an act on incorporating the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) into Swedish law. The purpose of this essay has been to illuminate this proposal in view of the principle of the best interests of the child, and the question at issue has been if the principle would get affected of incorporation, and in that

En studie med fokus på vad som utgör detta glapp avseende platsmarknadsföringens vision för Malmös senaste upprustningsprojekt i relation till mottagargruppens attityd och beteende som bekräftar respektive förkastar dessa riktlinjer.

In high energy heavy ion collisions a new state of matter called quark gluon plasma is produced. An important observable is azimuthal anisotropy flow. Data from the ALICE experiment is used in the search for azimuthal anisotropic flow in pp collisions, at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7$ TeV. p--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 5.02$ TeV are used to create a baseline. It is expected to find symmetries in $\De

In this thesis, the author tries to explore how non-heterosexual men in Denmark use different methods to and strategies for the negotiation of openness in regards to their non-normative sexuality in the labour market. The basis of the thesis is an interview study conducted with five non-heterosexual men as the informants. From the standpoint of a non-heterosexual men in Denmark and the assumptions

Instruction scheduling is one of the most important optimisations performed when producing code in a compiler. The problem consists of finding a minimum length schedule subject to latency and different resource constraints. This is a hard problem, classically approached by heuristic algorithms. In the last decade, research interest has shifted from heuristic to potentially optimal methods. When us
