Abstract:
If no-confidence motions are primarily motivated by bringing down governments, why do only approximately 5% of no-confidence motions in advanced parliamentary democracies from 1960 result in the termination of government? In this project the author addresses this puzzle by developing a formal model of the electoral benefits of no-confidence motions and tests these hypotheses with the use of an original data set. No-confidence motions represent highly visible opportunities for opposition parties to highlight their strength or ability compared to the government in the hopes of improving their vo

Abstract:
The power to remove the government via no-confidence motion is a powerful tool afforded to the opposition. By triggering the government’s downfall, opposition parties can substantially influence policy direction in parliamentary democracies. Yet, we know surprisingly little about how government and opposition parties interact to determine the occurrence of no-confidence motions and their chance of success. In this project, I develop a simple formal model that identifies the factors influencing when opposition parties propose no-confidence motions and their outcomes. I find support for these ex

Abstract:
The article reveals the features of parliamentary responsibility of the governments of Western Europe. When the government or some of its members is to be failing to carry out their duties, parliament can initiate procedures which have the potential to replace all or part of the government. There are two different types of procedure. One is the withdrawal of confidence in the government or in individual ministers. The requirement for a certain minimum number of votes to be obtained before such motions can be initiated or passed highlights the relative strengths of the different political group

Abstract On average, soil sites behaved nonlinearly during the M 6.7 1994 Northridge, California, earthquake. This conclusion follows from an analysis that combines elements of two independent lines of investigation. First, we apply the stochastic finite-fault simulation method, calibrated with 28 rock-site recordings of the Northridge mainshock, to the simulation of the input motions to the soil sites that recorded this event. The calibrated model has a near-zero average bias in reproducing ground motions at rock sites in the frequency range from 0.1 to 12.5 Hz. The soil sites selected are th

I present a formal model of the confidence vote procedure, an institutional arrangement that permits a prime minister to attach the fate of a particular policy to a vote on government survival.

Neither cabinet ministers, through their authority over specific portfolios, nor members of parliament, through the use of no-confidence motions, can counteract the prime minister's policy cont

Understanding the motion of a camera from only the image(s) it captures is a di cult problem. At best we might hope to estimate the relative motion between camera and scene if we assume a static subject, but once we start considering scenes with dynamic content it becomes di cult to di↵erentiate between motion due to the observer or motion due to scene movement. In this thesis we show how the invaluable cues provided by inertial sensor data can be used to simplify motion analysis and relax requirements for several computer vision problems.

Abstract:
Abstract Natural philosophers expressed their convictions with various degrees of forcefulness: great confidence, bordering on mathematical certainty; prudent open-mindedness, inviting criticism; and tentativeness, often in the form of questions. Newton had a just appreciation of the power of the question. “This brilliant genius,” Einstein wrote of Newton, “who determined the course of western thought, research, and practice like no one else before or since,” was led to his greatest achievement by a “question”: Is there a simple rule by which the motions of the planets can be calculated? His answer to this question was, as we know, a book, the Principia. Like Einstein, drawn to riddles, Newton viewed the universe as a hard riddle indeed. He did not solve it completely, but he gave it a clear formulation, and he turned the riddle into a productive genre of scientific exchange, “Queries.” Through his queries, he left challenges and hints for his successors, backed by his infectious curiosity about the universe and his optimism about science.

Deterministic ship motions predictions methodologies represent a promising emerging approach, which could be embedded in decision support systems for certain types of operation. The typically envisioned prediction chain starts from the remote sensing of the wave elevation through wave radar technology. An estimated wave field is then fitted to the data, it is propagated in space and time, and it is finally fed to a ship motion prediction model. Prediction time horizons, typically, are practically limited to the order of minutes. Deterministic predictions are, however, inevitably associated wit

Free floating objects, such as a self reacting wave energy converter (WEC), may experience a condition known as parametric resonance. In this situation, at least two degrees of freedom become coupled when the incident wave train has a frequency approximately twice the pitch or roll natural frequency. This can result in very large amplitude motion in pitch and/or roll. While classic linear theory has proven sufficient for describing small motions due to small amplitude waves, a point absorber WEC is often designed to operate in resonant conditions, and so exhibits significant non-linear respons

Abstract:
From Pontryagin’s Maximum Principle to the Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic Complex; we develop the theory and generate implementable time efficient trajectories for a test-bed autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). This paper is the beginning of the journey from theory to implementation. We begin by considering pure motion trajectories and move into a rectangular trajectory which is a concatenation of pure surge and pure sway. These trajectories are tested using our numerical model and demonstrated by our AUV in the pool. In this paper we demonstrate that the above motions are realizable through our met

Abstract:
In the last forty years wave drift loads have been calculated with methods based on the near-field theory (hull pressure integration, Pinkster [4]) and/or the far field method (linear momentum theory). Both methods use linear theory and through its formulation ignore the ship’s hull form above the mean water line. It is evident that in survival sea-states the small motion assumptions are violated and the hull form above the mean water line can affect the motion characteristics of the ship and the drift loads. In order to get more insight in this effect, SBM has conducted a systematic model tes

Abstract:
Abstract The conventional approach for estimating vessel operability for offshore installation operations relies on numerical results from discrete sea state simulations (tabulated operability) and wave forecasts simplified into a set of statistical parameters (Hs, Tp, direction, etc.), leading to an important loss of operability and reliability. Recently, the potential of using vessel motions as cable installation limits has been explored due to the evidence of strong correlations between the vessel motions and the dynamic response of the cable or pipe.

Abstract:
The response of a platform subjected to a strong ground motion is highly affected by the method of modelling, and special attention should be paid to such advanced analysis. While the potential of dynamic inelastic analysis and performance based design of offshore platforms is recognised in earthquake design and assessment, they have inherent shortcomings. This paper discusses the critical issues and their effects on the obtained results in the application of inelastic dynamic analysis. Areas of possible developments that would render the method more applicable to the prediction of dynamic res

Abstract:
Abstract Estimates for roll damping are important input parameters for simulation studies on vessels operating at sea, e.g. FPSO mooring in waves, wind and current, workability and operability investigations, Dynamic Position studies, ship-to-ship operations and safety studies of vessels. To accurately predict the motions of vessels this quantity should be determined with confidence in the values. Traditionally, model experiments in water basins using so-called decay tests are carried out to determine the roll damping. With recent advancements in CFD modelling, the offshore industry has starte

Abstract:
Abstract In this paper we investigate the dynamics of the process when a robot intercepts and captures a moving object. This operation is called dynamic mass capture. The effects of structural flexibility of the robot is taken into consideration. In terms of time the analysis is divided into three phases: before interception (finite motion), at the vicinity of interception and capture (impulsive motion), and after interception (finite motion). Special attention is paid to the modeling of the second phase when the robot intercepts and captures a target and it becomes part of the end effector, t

Abstract:
One of the primary goals of riser monitoring is to build a database of measured riser behavior during different environmental conditions and compare against design predictions during each period. A comprehensive database of field measured riser response provides not only a dataset to benchmark riser performance but enables the calibration of design parameters for future risers. The calibrated set of design parameters would feedback to establish a more representative riser design process and provide greater confidence during future riser designs. The following paper establishes a methodology to
