Abstract:

Plant development, growth and response to varying environmental conditions, involves a complex network of overlapping interactions between plant signalling hormones and gene expression, known as ‘CROSSTALK’, which controls cell proliferation, elongation and differentiation. Hormone response, concentrations and gene expression levels vary through the root tip and display patterning, which ultimately drives development; however, little is known about how this is established. Models have been constructed to explain patterning, including a ‘physical’ auxin flux model in a simple rectangular 2-D mu

Abstract:

Il est généralement admis que la végétation peut stabiliser les pentes naturelles et artificielles contre les glissements de terrain superficiel. Par rapport au rôle mécanique, les racines renforcent le sol d'une pente en fournissant une cohésion additionnelle (cr). La quantification des cr est une étape essentielle pour évaluer la stabilité des pentes, quantifiée par le facteur de sécurité (FoS, défini par le ratio entre les forces de la résistance et les forces motrices sur une pente). La plupart des modèles prédictifs de cr existants ne prennent pas en compte la dynamique racinaire à l'éche

Abstract:

The formation of lateral roots is an important post-embryonic developmental process that allows plants to adapt to their environment via exploitation of soil mineral resources. New lateral roots initiate as lateral root primordia (LRP) in the pericycle cell layer adjacent to the central vascular tissue in the primary root, and must pass through the outer cell layers of endodermis, cortex and epidermis to emerge as mature roots. A key regulator of emergence is the plant hormone auxin and it has been shown previously that in Arabidopsis the auxin induced expression of the auxin influx carrier LA

Abstract:

The potential for life to control its environment was first suggested by Lovelock (1972). Charlson et al (1987) proposed a role for marine planktonic ecosystems in global climate regulation via the production and ventilation to the atmosphere of dimethylsulphide (DMS), a by-product of phytoplankton metabolism. Once in the atmosphere DMS contributes to the formation of cloud condensation nuclei, and increases the amount and brightness of cloud. This affects the albedo of the planet, reflecting more incident sunlight back into space, and cooling the earth. In common with many other 'hypotheses'

Abstract:

The application of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method for the numerical analysis of complex electromagnetic problems related to wireless communications is considered. Since exact solutions to many complex electromagnetic problems are difficult, if not impossible, the FDTD method is well suited to modelling a wide range of electromagnetic problems. Structures considered include single and twin-slot antennas for millimetre-wave applications, monopole antennas on mobile handsets and chokes for the suppression of currents on coaxial cables.

Recent research has shown that it is often preferable to encode real-world problems as propositional satisfiability (SAT) problems and then solve using a general purpose SAT solver.

Recently, systematic SAT solvers have been progressively improved and are now able to solve many highly structured practical problems containing millions of clauses.

There are many real world assignment, scheduling and planning tasks which can be classified as combinatorial optimisation problems (COPs). These are usually formulated as a mathematical problem of minimising or maximising some cost function subject to a number of constraints. Usually, such problems are NP hard, and thus, whilst it is possible to find exact solutions to specific problems, in general only approximate solutions can be found. There are many algorithms that have been proposed for finding approximate solutions to COPs, ranging from special purpose heuristics to general search meta-h

Abstract:

A reaction-diffusion system, which can be considered as a generalised Schnakenberg-like model, is studied mathematically in 1D and 2D. This system models an initiation process within a root-hair cell which involves biochemical interactions of the G-proteins, known as Rho of Plants, or ROPs. These proteins attach to the cell membrane prompting a localised patch which, in consequence, induces cell wall softening and subsequently hair growth. This model assumes that the auxin provided is the key catalyst. Auxin is a plant hormone which is known to because of many different features in plant morph

In order to make this assessment, traffic engineering literature and empirical studies have been examined and used as a basis to review (current) emission model

Abstract:

The island of Rum in the Inner Hebrides, NW-Scotland, hosts a central volcanic complex that is part of the British-Irish Palaeogene Igneous Province situated in NE- Ireland and NW- Scotland. On Rum, rocks from several stages of Palaeogene magmatic activity have been exposed by millions of years of erosion. Rum is best known amongst geologists because of the famous layered ultrabasic intrusion that covers the SSE part of the island, which is amongst the world’s most studied non-active (fossil) volcanoes. The Long Loch Fault traverses Rum with an N-S direction and has been proposed to represent

Abstract:

In this dissertation, we present and evaluate algorithms for statistical gas distribution modelling in mobile robot applications. We derive a representation of the gas distribution in natural environments using gas measurements collected with mobile robots. The algorithms fuse different sensors readings (gas, wind and location) to create 2D or 3D maps. Throughout this thesis, the Kernel DM+V algorithm plays a central role in modelling the gas distribution. The key idea is the spatial extrapolation of the gas measurement using a Gaussian kernel. The algorithm produces four maps: the weight map

Abstract:

An autonomous robot able to navigate inside an unknown environment and reconstruct full 3D scene models using monocular video has been a long term goal in the field of Machine Vision. A key component of such a system is the reconstruction of surface models from estimated scene structure. Sparse 3D measurements of real scenes are readily estimated from N-view image sequences using structure-from-motion techniques. In this thesis we present a geometric theory for reconstruction of surface models from sparse 3D data captured from N camera views. Based on this theory we introduce a general N-view

Abstract:

The main goals of the work are the renewal of the mechanical design of the serial elastic robot ELBROB of the INSTITUTE OF ROBOTICS (Linz) and the building of two models of the robot: one that considers the members of the robot as rigid and another one that contemplate the elasticity of the bodies. The mechanical design consists in the choice and adaptation of a new gearmotor on the first axe of the robot due to malfunctions in the previous transmission and in a new design for the angular plates supporting the gearmotor of the third axe. A simple PD control is then implemented on both models.

Abstract:

This thesis was carried out at Micronic Mydata AB in Stockholm in cooperation with the Automatic Control Laboratory at Royal Institute of Technology (KTH). The company develops and produces robots to attach components onto Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). The focus of this thesis is a Jet Printer robot called MY500 which applies solder paste dots onto PCBs. The purpose is to build a realistic model of the robot including its controller structure in the Matlab toolboxes Simulink and SimMechanics. An analysis of the controller performance and comparison to a linear quadratic regulator is also cons
