A linear algebra theorem like Cramer’s rule was used for the analysis of a system of equations obtained from UV spectroscopy, and results were compared against those obtained from HPLC analysis. This parametrization allowed ...

The alkali-aggregate reaction (AAR) is a chemical reaction that provokes a heterogeneous expansion of concrete and reduces important properties such as Young's modulus, leading to a reduction in the structure's useful life. ...

Piezo-electric energy harvesters (PEHs) are widely used to recycle waste vibrations for pow-ering small electronic devices. In this work, the performance of PEHs of non-conventional shapes is studied with the aim to optimize ...

Parametric term structure models have been successfully applied to innumerous problems in fixed income markets, including pricing, hedging, managing risk, as well as studying monetary policy implications. On their turn, ...

Abstract: In this master�s thesis discrimination of non-stationary signals using time varying parametric modeling and time frequency analysis is explored. This work consists of two parts, the first, to obtain a representation ...
