Essays on Fiscal Policy
… of the output costs of default. We find that the quantitative properties of the output costs of default, and their dependence on primitives such as the elasticity of labor supply, are distinctly different depending on the margin of fiscal adjustment. The consideration of fiscal policy thus has …

A Walk through the Forest: the Geometry and Topology of Random Systems
… will be interested in both the qualitative and quantitative behaviour of these systems over large scales. The quantitative properties of both the random system and its underlying medium are in this work and in general often encoded as a set of dimensions, or exponents, which govern how those …

Stable and Unstable Shock Formation of the Burgers-Hilbert Equation
… to appropriated self-similar coordinates, the quantitative properties of the corresponding self-similar solution to the inviscid Burgers’ equation, and transport estimates. In the case of unstable shock, we, in addition, control the two unstable directions by Newton’s iteration.

Algorithms for three-dimensional free-form object matching
… The umbilic method uses the qualitative properties of umbilical points to find correspondence information between two objects. These two methods are extended to deal with uniform scaling effects. The umbilic method is enhanced with an algorithm for scaling factor estimation using the …

Bifurcation Analysis of a Model of the Frog Egg Cell Cycle
… have been studying the qualitative and quantitative properties of a large system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations that describe the molecular details of this system as currently known. Important clues to the behavior of the model are provided by bifurcation theory, especially …

Qualitative and Quantitative Study of the Flow Physics in the Vicinity of an Oscillating Plate in Viscous Fluids
… We conduct a comprehensive qualitative and quantitative analysis of the problem for a broad range of values of the parameters of oscillation, including frequency and amplitude, to study the fluid-structure interaction mechanisms responsible for the hydrodynamic forces acting on the plate. …

Automata-Based Quantitative Verification
The analysis of quantitative properties of computing systems, or quantitative analysis in short, is an emerging area in automated formal analysis. Such properties address aspects such as costs and rewards, quality measures, resource consumption, distance metrics, and the like. So far, several …

On the use of process algebra techniques in computational modelling of cancer initiation and development
… tools can be used to calculate exact quantitative properties of the underlying stochastic process. We have explored the applicability of the process algebra formalism by analysing the dynamics of two cancer-related signalling pathways: Wnt/Wingless and FGF (Fibroblast Growth Factor). …

Models for Managing Green Product and Process Innovations
… a decision support system for analyzing the quantitative properties of green process management. The simulation results show that the optimal policy that requires higher production may also result in higher stock levels throughout the entire planning horizon, which increases the environmental …

Avalanching on dunes and its effects: Size statistics, stratification, & seismic surveys
… validate a mathematical framework that uses bulk properties of the dune to predict quantitative properties of the emitted waves, and I demonstrate the importance of internal variations in seismic velocity, resulting from variations in water content.

Expressiveness and Decidability of Weighted Automata and Weighted Logics
… weighted automata which allow the description of quantitative properties of regular languages. In subsequent works, many of these descriptive formalisms and extensions were combined and their relationships investigated. For example, weighted regular expressions and weighted logics have been …

Electroanalytical chemistry for biological and environmental applications
… the Group 2 cations was demonstrated, although quantitative properties eluded the work.Last, an environmental sensor for cyanide was developed using an electrochemical probe, tetramethylphenylenediamine (TMPD). The reaction between the electro-generated TMPD.+ and cyanide is successfully …

Practical Applications of Infrared, Raman and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Techniques for Qualitative, Quantitative and Structural Analysis of Pharmaceutical Drugs, Cementitious Material and Organic Molecules Containing Phosphorous
… theoretical, conformational, qualitative and quantitative properties of different molecules under study. Understanding the physical structure of a molecule is fundamental for function, dynamic, and mechanism studies. Infrared and Raman spectroscopy are two of the most widely used and powerful …

Essays on transport economics
… capital as a stock adds information about the quantitative properties of the infrastructure but not the services it provides. In this sense, stock measures are combined with information about the vehicles potentially using the infrastructure to obtain a proxy of the transportation services …
