(2012)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policy
This paper presents a mathematical model for the estimation of the key performance indicators of the taxi markets in urban areas. These key parameters are basically the demand and supply for taxi services, the waiting time ...
• #### A Mathematical Autobiographity ﻿

(Université du Quebéc à Montréal / Université du Quebéc à Montréal, 1980)
Article
Open Access
Extrait de son autobiographie mathématique. “Mes recherches mathématiques proviennent en partie de l’intérèt que je Porte aux problèmes de dissection. J’ai montré, par exemple, comment découper un pentagone régulier en six ...
• #### A mathematical framework for structural control integration ﻿

(Trans Tech Publications, 2012)
Conference report
Open Access
In this paper, some control strategies to design decentralized controllers are developed and discussed. These strategies are based on the Inclusion Principle, a very useful mathematical framework to obtain decentralized ...
• #### A mathematical model for dynamic memory networks ﻿

(Iniciativa Digital Politècnica, 2011)
Conference report
Open Access
The aim of this paper is to bring together the work done several years ago by M.A. Fiol and the other authors to formulate a quite general mathematical model for a kind of permutation networks known as dynamic memories. A ...
• #### A mathematical model of refinery operations characterised by complete horizontal integration of subsystems from purchase to product distribution ﻿

(2009)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policy
Refinery economics are extremely complex and involve massive amounts of operational data and decision-making processes; therefore, most refinery planners model and solve each sub-problem sequentially and independently. ...
• #### A Mathematical model of the spread of two viral sub-types on a Plant Leaf (Numerical Simulation) ﻿

(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2015-06)
Master thesis
Restricted access - author's decision
Whilst in humans free virus particles and host cells are assumed to be homogenously mixed, in plants, the spatial component is a key factor. The natural proliferation of the virus through a plant is known to happen from a ...
• #### A mathematical model to study railway track dynamics for the prediction of vibration levels generated by rail vehicles ﻿

(2012-01)
Article
Open Access
This article presents a mathematical model aimed at predicting wheel–rail contact vibration force arising from wheel profile irregularities. Prediction of vibrations caused by a passing train is a basic factor in environmental ...
• #### A mathematical programming approach for different scenarios of bilateral bartering ﻿

Article
Open Access
The analysis of markets with indivisible goods and fixed exogenous prices has played an important role in economic models, especially in relation to wage rigidity and unemployment. This paper provides a novel mathematical ...

• #### A matrix derivation of a representation theorem for (trAp)1/p ﻿

(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Centre de Càlcul, 1989)
Article
Open Access
A matrix derivation of a well-known representation theorem for (tr Ap)1/p is given, which is the solution of a restricted maximization problem. The paper further gives a solution of the corresponding restricted minimization ...
• #### A matrix function useful in the estimation of linear continuous-time models. ﻿

Article
Open Access
In a recent publication Chen & Zadrozny (2001) derive some equations for efficiently computing eA and ∇ eA, its derivative. They employ an expression due to Bellman (1960), Snider (1964) and Wilcox (1967) for the differential ...
• #### A Max coverage formulation for information dissemination in vehicular networks ﻿

(IEEE Press. Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2009)
Conference lecture
Open Access
We consider that a given number of Dissemination Points (DPs) have to be deployed for disseminating information to vehicles travelling in an urban area. We formulate our problem as a Maximum Coverage Problem (MCP) so as ...
• #### A maximum approach for robust MIMO design: combining OSTBC and beamforming with minimum transmission power requirements ﻿

(2004)
Conference report
Open Access
In this paper we address the problem of the design of a transmitter in a Multi-Input-Multi-Output (MIMO) space diversity system. We consider a design which is robust to errors in the channel estimate available at the ...
• #### A maximum likelihood analysis of the RVoG model for forestry studies in polarimetric SAR interferometry ﻿

(European Space Agency (ESA), 2013)
Conference report
