A statistical study of lung function and chest cancer data
Thesis
A statistical study of lung function and chest cancer data. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/415019

This thesis consists of an application of different approaches namely numerical and grahical methods, to the analysis of two sets of multivariate medical data, containing qualitative and quantitative variables. the two sets of data are described and...

Process survivability in a distributed computer control system
Thesis
Trueman, P. Process survivability in a distributed computer control system. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/415366

Possibly the greatest advantage that a distributed computer control system has over a centralised control system is that the failure of one or more of its constituent computers does not prevent the other computers from operating normally. Unfortunate... Read More about Process survivability in a distributed computer control system.

Some problems in reliability of systems composed of unreliable components
Thesis
Ansell, J. Some problems in reliability of systems composed of unreliable components. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/415426

The thesis considers several connected problems in the study of reliability of systems with unreliable components. Initially it reviews the dichotomic case introducing a new characterization which clarifies the importance of the k-out-of-n structures...

Bayesian sequential methods for binomial and multinomial selection problems
Thesis
Madhi, S. A. Bayesian sequential methods for binomial and multinomial selection problems. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/415502

The thesis deals with binomial and multinomial sequential selection problems. Optimal sequential sampling schemes are derived by using dynamic programming in conjunction with loss functions and sampling costs and to minimize expected sample sizes. Co...

Homoclinic bifurcation and saddle connections for duffing type oscillators
Thesis
Davenport, N. M. Homoclinic bifurcation and saddle connections for duffing type oscillators. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/415877

The study primarily considers the nondlmensionallsed Buffing's equation
x" + kx' - x + x3 = F Cos wt, (k, F, ?) > 0,
and investigates the various phenomena associated with small damping and forcing amplitude.
Through the use of Liapunov functions... Read More about Homoclinic bifurcation and saddle connections for duffing type oscillators.

The separation technique for nonlinear partial differential equations: general results and its connection with other methods
Thesis
Malloki, I. A. The separation technique for nonlinear partial differential equations: general results and its connection with other methods. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/416225

This thesis is primarily a study of the separation method for solving nonlinear partial differential equations, which is a generalisation of the classical separation approach as applied to linear equations. The method is of Importance since it produc... Read More about The separation technique for nonlinear partial differential equations: general results and its connection with other methods.

Run-time diagnostics in programming languages with data-structuring facilities
Thesis
Run-time diagnostics in programming languages with data-structuring facilities. https://keele-repository.worktribe.com/output/416621

Modern high level programming languages have been designed with the intention of providing the means of expressing the solution to a problem in the most natural way possible. This thesis is concerned with the correctness of such solutions.
The relia... Read More about Run-time diagnostics in programming languages with data-structuring facilities.
