A DYNAMIC SELECT SECTOR SPDRS ETFS PORTFOLIO OPTIMIZATION MODEL WITH REGIME-SWITCHING ECONOMIC INDICATORS

Chang, Jingzhi (2013-12-16)

This thesis studies a dynamic Select Sector SPDRs ETFs portfolio optimization problem. The objective of the optimization model is to maximize the risk-adjusted expected return of a portfolio similar to a logarithmic utility ...

Dynamic Stress Wave Propagation

Pearson, Dustin (2016-08-31)

In an effort to provide an analyst with the fundamental knowledge required to successfully predict dynamic structural response, a detailed summary of dynamic stresses, review of dynamic pulse buckling and verified numerical ...

DYNAMIC TERRAMECHANIC MODEL FOR LIGHTWEIGHT WHEELED MOBILE ROBOTS

Irani, Rishad (2011-09-06)

This doctoral thesis extends analytical terramechanic modelling for small lightweight mobile robots operating on sandy soil. Previous terramechanic models were designed to capture and predict the mean values of the ...

Dynamic Trajectory-Based Couch Motion for Improvement of Radiation Therapy Trajectories

MacDonald, Robert Lee (2014-08-27)

This work investigates potential improvement in external beam radiation therapy plan quality using an optimized dynamic gantry and patient support couch motion trajectory, which could minimize exposure to sensitive healthy ...
