The purpose of this thesis is to set the groundwork for future research on developing a machine-learning based anomaly detection system for hospitalized patients. Our first step was to study and analyze the project’s needs, background, and literature examining similar criteria. In the second step, we interviewed medical experts and researchers. Based on our research and the suggestions received ...

In this thesis the candidate aims to model two finite elements models of the post tensioned concrete Herøysund bridge. First a solid element model is modelled using the documentation from the bridge construction, then a beam element model is modelled using the solid model as a foundation. These models are subjected to a structural analysis that applies boundary conditions, joints, mass, gravity, ...

We consider generalized chessboard structures where the local conductivity takes two values 𝑎 and 𝑏 . All integer combinations of 𝑎 and 𝑏 which make the components of effective conductivity matrix integer valued are found. Moreover, we discuss the problem of estimating the effective conductivity matrix by using the finite-element method.

Finite elements are allowed to be of a shape suitable for the specific problem. This choice defines thereafter the accuracy of the approximated solution. Moreover, flexible element shapes allow for the construction of an arbitrary domain topology. Polygon meshes are a common representation of the domain that cover any choice of the finite element shape. Being an alternative tool for modeling and ...

New and more complex industrial applications of robotic systems for inspection and maintenance (I&M) purposes are enabled by the continuous improvements to the system capabilities. Key factors that fuel this development are advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI), improvements of sensor technology, miniaturization and cost reduction of components (including motors, batteries, processors and ...

In this paper, we explore a generalised solution of the Cauchy problems for the q-heat and q-wave equations which are generated by Jackson’s and the q-Sturm-Liouville operators with respect to t and x, respectively. For this, we use a new method, where a crucial tool is used to represent functions in the Fourier series expansions in a Hilbert space on quantum calculus. We show that these solutions ...

We prove and discuss some new weak type (1, 1) inequalities of maximal operators of Vilenkin–Nörlund means generated by monotone coefficients. Moreover, we use these results to prove a.e. convergence of such Vilenkin–Nörlund means. As applications, both some well-known and new inequalities are pointed out.

The additive manufacturing or 3D printing (3DP) technologies have undergone exponential expansion, particularly in the previous couple of decades. Additive manufacturing technologies have paved the way for easy component manufacturing in large-scale and high-performance businesses. The introduction of desktop 3D printers has established 3DP as a reliable technique for generating prototypes and direct ...

We prove that by scaling nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic energies de ned on Poisson random sets in the plane we obtain an isotropic perimeter energy with a surface tension characterised by an asymptotic formula. The result relies on proving that cells with `very long' or `very short' edges of the corresponding Voronoi tessellation can be neglected. In this way we may apply Geometry Measure ...
