Modelling clusters of corporate defaults: Regime-switching models significantly reduce the contagion source
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)In this paper, we report robust evidence that the process of corporate defaults is time-dependent and can be modelled by extending an autoregressive count time series model class via the introduction of regime-switching. ... -
Modelling CO2 Storage in Saline Aquifers with Reactive Transport Simulator RCB
(Doctoral thesis, 2011-09-09) -
Modelling Demyelination and Neuronal Loss from Diffusion Weighted Magnetic Resonance Images in an Experimental Model of Multiple Sclerosis
(Master thesis, 2015-05-31)This master project is an application of an advanced biophysical model of water diffusion in tissue to asses neuronal microstructure of mouse and rat brain and, in particular, to find potential imaging markers of demyelination ... -
Modelling Energy Systems with Variable Renewable Energy
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-05-15)Today, the majority of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions stem from the burning of fossil fuels for energy purposes. In order to avoid devastating consequences of climate change, the world needs to reduce its emissions ... -
Modelling ethanol supply, demand and price in the Brazilian macro economy
(Master thesis, 2012-06-27)The Brazilian program for sugarcane ethanol has been greatly successful since its inception about 40 years ago. But the road has been bumpy and today there are still major problems with price, supply and demand stability. ... -
Modelling fish growth under hormonal regulation as a factor in Pace of Life
(Doctoral thesis, 2020-06-29)This thesis is written with the aim to increase the holistic understanding of growth in fish. As stated by Tinbergen (1963), to fully understand a behaviour or trait one needs to understand several perspectives of it. Those ... -
Modelling Fluid Flow and Heat Transport in Fractured Porous Media
(Master thesis, 2013-08-27)Flow in porous media is an important and well- researched topic in both academia and the industry. More accurate mathematical models are constantly sought after. Fractures in a porous medium can be an important contributor ... -
Modelling Geomechanical Impact of CO2 Injection Using Precomputed Response Functions
(Chapter; Peer reviewed, 2016)When injecting CO2 or other fluids into a geological formation, pressure plays an important role both as a driver of flow and as a risk factor for mechanical integrity. The full effect of geomechanics on aquifer flow can ... -
Modelling hospital operations: Insight from using data from paper registries in the obstetrics ward at a hospital in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)In the Ethiopian health system, operations management techniques have been underutilised. Although previous research has outlined limitations of paper-based patient records, few studies have examined their potential utility ... -
Modelling illumination and resolution effects in seismic with a 2(3)D convolution method
(Master thesis, 2018-12-14)The aim of seismic modelling is to generate modelling cases with the highest degree of realism possible, where the benchmark is the expensive (expertise needed, extensive time-cost) finite-difference modelling method. A ... -
Modelling malaria treatment practices in Bangladesh using spatial statistics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-03-05)Background: Malaria treatment-seeking practices vary worldwide and Bangladesh is no exception. Individuals from 88 villages in Rajasthali were asked about their treatment-seeking practices. A portion of these households ... -
Modelling memory decay after injuries using household survey data from Khartoum State, Sudan
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06-20)Background Injuries represent an important cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. In retrospective epidemiological studies, estimated rates of reported injuries often decline considerably when information is included ... -

Modelling migration patterns of fish using depth and temperature preferences
(Master thesis, 2012-04-27)Time series of depth and temperature derived from electronic tagging of fish have been used to construct a stochastic model that aims at capturing main characteristics of the observations. Mixed Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process ... -
Modelling of an OBS profile across Storfjorden, Svalbard
(Master thesis, 2017-12-16)In this thesis, seismograms from eight Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS) have been processed, interpreted and used to obtain a 2D velocity model of a crustal transect across Storfjorden south of Svalbard through forward/inverse ... -
Modelling of bladder motion and investigation of correlation with toxicity in re-irradiation of prostate cancer
(Master thesis, 2023-06-01) -
Modelling of Brainstem Toxicity Including Variable Relative Biological Effectiveness in Paediatric Proton Therapy
(Master thesis, 2021-06-01)Brainstem necrosis is a rare but severe side-effect following paediatric proton therapy. Substructures of the brainstem may be associated with regional differences in radiosensitivity, but these are not accounted for ... -
Modelling of deep-sea gravity currents using an integrated plume model
(Geophysical Monograph Series; 85, Chapter, 1994) -
Modelling of gas hydrates in sedimentary systems : Methane hydrates impact on flow through porous media
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-04-06)In nature, gas hydrates exist in areas of permafrost and in shallow subsurface sediments at ocean depths of more than 300-500 metres. In terms of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) of the United Nations, better ... -
