In this thesis, we study two distinct problems.
The first problem consists of studying the linear system of partial differential equations which consists of taking a k-form, and applying the exterior derivative 'd' to it and add the wedge product with a 1- ...
We use a dynamic model of financing decisions to measure agency conflicts for a large panel of 12,652 firms from 14 countries. Our estimates show that agency conflicts are large and vary significantly across firms and countries. Differences in agency confl ...
We propose a physiologically based intonation model using perceptual relevance. Motivated by speech synthesis from a speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) point of view, we aim at a language independent way of modelling intonation. The model presented in thi ...
In this work, we focus on the Dynamical Low Rank (DLR) approximation of PDEs equations with random parameters. This can be interpreted as a reduced basis method, where the approximate solution is expanded in separable form over a set of few deterministic b ...
We study the system of linear partial differential equations given by dw + a Lambda w = f, on open subsets of R-n, together with the algebraic equation da Lambda u = beta, where a is a given 1-form, f is a given (k + 1)-form, beta is a given k + 2-form, w ...
The multiquery solution of parametric partial differential equations (PDEs), that is, PDEs depending on a vector of parameters, is computationally challenging and appears in several engineering contexts, such as PDE-constrained optimization, uncertainty qu ...
A new model describing the response of vertically-spanning unreinforced masonry walls subjected to out-of-plane loading is presented. The model approximates the real behaviour of the walls by a tri-linear force-displacement relationship, which is suitable ...
Multiscale or multiphysics partial differential equations are used to model a wide range of physical systems with various applications, e.g. from material and natural science to problems in biology or engineering. When the ratio between the smallest scale ...
Families of energy operators and generalized energy operators have recently been introduced in the definition of the solutions of linear Partial Differential Equations (PDEs) with a particular application to the wave equation [ 15]. To do so, the author ha ...
The one-dimensional tubular reactor model with advection and possibly axial diffusion is the classical model of distributed chemical reaction systems. This system is described by partial differential equations that depend on the time t and the spati ...
