Abstract:

Automatic landings have been performed routinely for many years. However the design of flare and landing control systems with a suitable performance and a high level of reliability remains a very difficult task. In the present scenario, the increasing in the landing capacity of airports is mandatory by limiting the time each aircraft occupies the runway. To limit the occupancy time, the reduction of touchdown zone is essential since landings too close of the exit could result in a missed exit and therefore in a decreasing of landing rate. Give this context, the present work aims to propose an

Abstract:

This research is concerned with the flight dynamic, pitch flight control and flying qualities assessment for the reference BWB aircraft. It aims to develop the longitudinal control laws which could satisfy the flying and handing qualities over the whole flight envelope with added consideration of centre of gravity (CG) variation. In order to achieve this goal, both the longitudinal stability augmentation system (SAS) and autopilot control laws are studied in this thesis. Using the pole placement method, two sets of local Linear-Time-Invariant (LTI) SAS controllers are designed from the viewpoi

Abstract:

This thesis describes the design, maintenance and statistical analysis involved in undertaking a Longitudinal Survey. A longitudinal survey (or study) obtains observations or responses from individuals over several times over a defined period. This enables the direct study of changes in an individual's response over time. In particular, it distinguishes an individual's change over time from the baseline differences among individuals within the initial panel (or cohort). This is not possible in a cross-sectional study. As such, longitudinal surveys give correlated responses within individuals.

Abstract:

Design continuously re-defines its meaning. Over the last years, the way designers interpret information, solve problems as well as prototype and express ideas has received increased attention from domains outside of traditional design, especially from the business world. However, much of the design thinking discourse outside of traditional design centres around a few widely-read practitioner books and only builds on a rudimentary understanding of its principles. Likewise, the academic literature only offers a few rigorous investigations of the application of design thinking in the management

Combining modes of vibration, such as longitudinal and torsional vibration, is advantageous in many ultrasonic applications such as ultrasonic drilling, welding, and motors. In this work we present a novel approach to the design a longitudinal-torsional (LT) ultrasonic horn which adapts the front mass in a traditional Langevin transducer. Different approaches, such as degeneration of longitudinal vibration and coupling between longitudinal (L) and torsional (T) modes, have been used to generate the LT mode of vibration.

Prior research suggests aggressive cancer treatments contribute to cognitive impairments in children diagnosed with pediatric brain tumors. The literature also suggests that younger age at diagnosis (AAD) and treatment may result in disrupted cognitive trajectories due to limited brain plasticity. In line with this research, we hypothesized an interaction between radiation therapy (RT) and young AAD of brain tumors, where young AAD and RT results in lower standard scores on the WRAT-R Reading Comprehension Subtest.

Abstract:

Vehicle motion and tire forces have been estimated using extended Kalman filters for many years. The use of extended Kalman filters is primarily motivated by the simultaneous presence of nonlinear dynamics and sensor noise. Two versions of extended Kalman filters are employed in this thesis: one using a deterministic tire-force model and the other using a stochastic tire-force model. Previous literature has focused on linear stochastic tire-force models and on linear deterministic tire-force models.

Abstract:

There is evidence to suggest that the bending stiffness of footwear can be adapted to influence sprinting performance. In addition, it has been suggested that to achieve maximal performance, the mechanical properties of this footwear needs customising to an individual athlete. Due to a lack of detailed biomechanical data, the influence of longitudinal bending stiffness on the dynamics of the lower extremity during sprint running remains largely unexplained and is subject to considerable speculation. Thus, the aim of this work is to develop functional sprint footwear in a range of different lon

Abstract:

Dados consistindo de medidas repetidas tomadas em um mesmo indivíduo são muito comuns na agricultura e biologia. A modelagem de dados desta natureza usualmente envolve a caracterização da relação entre medidas repetidas e covariáveis. Em muitas aplicações, a relação proposta entre as medidas repetidas tem um comportamento não-linear nos parâmetros desconhecidos de interesse. Por exemplo, em estudo de crescimento de arvores, geralmente o comportamento da variável resposta e melhor descrito por um modelo não-linear nos parâmetros porque estes modelos caracterizam melhor a realidade dos fenômenos

Abstract:

A significant racial disparity in breast cancer mortality exists among women in the United States. Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a breast cancer phenotype that may explain, in part, this disparity between white and African American women. The objective of this study was to determine the predictors of survival in TNBC and non-triple-negative breast cancer (NTNBC) patients. Data on 168,756 female patients with a diagnosis of invasive breast cancer in the Surveillance Epidemiology and End Results (SEER) program were stratified based on breast cancer receptor phenotypes in this retrospec

Abstract:

L’une des voies d’innovation plébiscitées par les détaillants pour orchestrer l’évolution de leur proposition de valeur consiste à réviser le design des espaces de vente. Les contributions académiques sur l’expérience en magasin se sont concentrées sur les perceptions des consommateurs ainsi que sur le repérage de pratiques managériales significatives. En prenant pour objet la traduction du repositionnement d’une enseigne par le design expérientiel des espaces de vente, la thèse propose de suivre le processus au cœur même du marché et de mettre à jour les mécanismes qui le sous-tendent.

Abstract:

This thesis explores cultural differences on interactive design features used in websites of South Korea and the United Kingdom from the perspective of both: professional website designers and end-users. It also investigates how the use of interactive design features from different cultures change over time. Four interaction types on websites; User to Interface (U2I), User to Content (U2C), User to Provider (U2P), and User to User (U2U) interactivity, and three interaction types on blogs; Blogger to Interface (B2I), Blogger to Content (B2C) and Blogger to Blogger (B2B) interactivity have been
