Thesis (MSc)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study examined nonlinear modelling techniques as applied to dynamic systems, paying specific attention to the Method of Surrogate Data and its possibilities. Within the field of nonlinear modelling, we examined the following areas of study: attractor reconstruction, general model building techniques, cost functions, description length, and a specific modelling methodology. The Method of Surrogate Data was initially applied in a more conventional application, i.e. testing a time series for nonlinear, dynamic structure.

A principal goal of neural engineering is to control the activation of neural circuits across space and time. The ability to control neural circuits with surrogate inputs is needed for the development of clinical neural prostheses and the experimental interrogation of connectivity between brain regions. Electrical stimulation provides a clinically viable method for activating neural tissue and the emergence of optogenetic stimulation has redefined the limitations on stimulating neural tissue experimentally. However, it remains poorly understood how these tools activate complex neural circui

Abstract:
Multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) requires many designs to be evaluated while searching for an optimum. As a result, the calculations done to evaluate the designs must be quick and simple to have a reasonable turn-around time. This makes aerodynamic calculations in the transonic regime difficult. Running computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculations within the MDO code would be too computationally expensive. Instead, CFD is used outside the MDO to find two-dimensional aerodynamic properties of a chosen airfoil shape, BACJ, at a number of points over a range of thickness-to-chord ra

However, a ROM incurs error in the solution due to approximation in a lower dimensional subspace. Moreover, ROMs lack robustness in terms of effectiveness over the entire parameter range

碩士<br>國立臺灣大學<br>機械工程學研究所<br>106<br>The goal of the thesis is to come up with an algorithm that is adequate for real-time electric vehicle battery state of charge(SOC) estimation. Therefore, the algorithm should meet the requirement of not hardware performance demanding, considering factors that influence battery SOC estimation and most importantly able to perform in dynamic operating state of electric vehicle. To cope with this, the study developed an improved algorithm based on combination of open-circuit voltage (OCV) method and coulomb counting method to estimate the SOC of lithium-ion batt

Abstract:
Wastewater epidemiology is an emerging discipline that requires collaborative research involving analytical chemists, drug epidemiologists, and wastewater engineers. Wastewater epidemiology involves the sampling and quantitative analysis of raw wastewaters from communities for illicit drugs and their metabolites. Mass loads (mass per day) and per capita (mg per day per person) are then calculated from concentrations and indicate the approximate quantity of illicit drugs used and excreted by the community. Limitations to wastewater epidemiology include that the population served by wastewate

Abstract:
Tissue engineering is limited by inability to create early and adequate blood supply. In-vivo DCE-MRI has imaged angiogenesis in soft tissues, yet has not been considered in hard tissues. Bilateral critical defects created in parietal bones of eighteen adult rabbits were left void, treated with haluronic acid acellular matrix (HA-ACM), or HA-ACM impregnated with vascular endothelial growth factor (VegF). DCE- MRI was acquired at weeks 1,2,3,6, and 12. Histologic analysis of HA-ACM treated defects demonstrated quantitatively greater immature bone formation, increased quantity and larger blo

Abstract:
The importance of balance between exploration and exploitation plays a crucial role while solving combinatorial optimization problems. This balance is reached by two general techniques: by using an appropriate problem solver and by setting its proper parameters. Both problems were widely studied in the past and the research process continues up until now. The latest studies in the field of automated machine learning propose merging both problems, solving them at design time, and later strengthening the results at runtime. To the best of our knowledge, the generalized approach for solving the p

Abstract:
Structural identification is a very important task especially in all those countries characterized by significant historical and architectural patrimony and strongly vulnerable infrastructures, subjected to inherent degradation with time and to natural hazards e.g. seismic loads. Structural response of existing constructions is usually estimated using suitable numerical models which are driven by a set of geometrical and/or mechanical parameters that are mainly unknown and/or affected by different levels of uncertainties. Some of these information can be obtained by experimental tests but it i

Dissertação de mestrado integrado em Engenharia Civil<br>This work consists in identifying and assessing the properties in a pre-stressed concrete bridge related to material, geometry and physic sources, through a surrogate model. The participation of this mathematical model allows to generate a relationship between bridge properties and its dynamic response, with the purpose of creating a tool to predict the analytical values of the studied properties from measured eigenfrequencies; in this case, it is introduced the identification of damage scenarios, giving the application for validate the

Thesis titled, “Design, Synthesis and Conformational Analysis of Hydrogen Bond Surrogate (HBS) Stabilized Helices in Natural Sequences. Helically Constrained Peptides for Potential DNA-Binding”, describes the development of a novel covalent hydrogen bond surrogate (HBS) model and its incorporation in short (4-8 residues) unstructured peptide sequences with coded amino acids, through a facile solution phase synthetic method (SPSM), to constrain them into α- helical conformations with highest known stabilities and helicities. The synthetic protocol was developed for mass scale combinatorial synt
