Abstract:

In Computer Aided Design model the shape is usually defined as a boundary representation, a cell complex of faces, edges, and vertices. The boundary representation is generated from a system of geometric constraints, with parameters as degrees of freedom. The dimensions of the boundary representation are determined by the parameters in the CAD system used to model the part, and every single parametric perturbation may generate different changes in the part model shape and dimensions. Thus, one can compute dimensional sensitivity to parameter perturbations. A "Sensitivity Analysis" method is pr

In this study, we numerically explore methods of coupling sensitivity analysis to the reduced model in order to increase the accuracy of a proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) basis across a wider range of parameters. Various techniques based on polynomial interpolation and basis alteration are compared. These techniques are performed on a 1-dimensional reaction-diffusion equation and 2-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations solved using the finite element method (FEM) as the full scale model.

Abstract:

Normative systems have been proposed as a useful abstraction to represent ideals of behaviour for autonomous agents in a social context. They specify constraints that agents ought to follow, but may sometimes be violated. Norms can increase the predictability of a system and make undesired situations less likely. When designing normative systems, it is important to anticipate the effects of possible violations and understand how robust these systems are to violations. Previous research on robustness analysis of normative systems builds upon simplistic norm formalisms, lacking support for the s

Abstract:

The topological derivative provides the sensitivity of a given shape functional with respect to an infinitesimal non-smooth domain pertubation (insertion of hole or inclusion, for instance). Classically, this derivative comes from the second term of the topological asymptotic expansion, dealing only with inifinitesimal pertubations. However, for pratical applications, we need to insert pertubations of finite sizes.Therefore, we consider other terms in the expansion, leading to the concept of higher-order topological derivatives. In a particular, we observe that the topological-shape sensitivit

Abstract:

’Flight’ is a program that uses flight mechanics to estimate the flight range of birds. This program, used by ornithologists, is only available for Windows OS. It requires manual imputation of body measurements and constants (one observation at a time) and this is time-consuming. Therefore, the first task is to implement the methods in R, a programming language that runs on various platforms. The resulting package named flying, has three advantages; first, it can estimate flight range of multiple bird observations, second, it makes it easier to experiment with different settings (e.g. constant

When one of the job processing times is gradually increased, the schedule produced by a list scheduling rule will be affected in a m

In this thesis we introduce a model for informative censoring. We assume that the joint distribution of the failure and the censored times depends on a parameter δ, which is actually a measure of the possible dependence, and a bias function B(t,θ). Knowledge of δ means that the joint distribution is fully specified, while B(t,θ) can be any function of the failure times. Being unable to draw inferences about δ, we perform a sensitivity analysis on the parameters of interest for small values of δ, based on a first order approximation. This will give us an idea of how robust our estimates are in

One of the main parameters influencing precision in points-to analysis is context-sensitivity that provides the analysis of each method separately for different contexts it was called on. The

Abstract:

A finite element solver has been developed for performing analysis and sensitivity analysis with Poisson's equation. An application of Poisson's equation in fluid dynamics is that of poential flow, in which case Posson's equaiton reduces to Laplace's equation. The stiffness matrix and sensitivity of the stiffness matrix are evaluated by direct integrations, as opposed to numerical integration. This allows less computational effort and minimizes the sources of computational errors. The capability of evaluating sensitivity derivatives has been added in orde to perform design sensitivity analysis

Abstract:

Cette thèse fait suite à une étude récente, menée par quelques chercheurs de l'Université de Montpellier, dans le but de proposer à la communauté scientifique une procédure d'inversion capable d'estimer de manière non invasive la pression dans les artères cérébrales d'un patient.Son premier objectif est, d'une part, d'examiner la précision et la robustesse de la procédure d'inversion proposée par ces chercheurs, en lien avec diverses sources d'incertitude liées aux modèles utilisés, aux hypothèses formulées et aux données cliniques du patient, et d'autre part, de fixer un critère d'arrêt pour
