This thesis studies the properties and usability of operators called t-norms, t-conorms, uninorms, as well as many valued implications and equivalences. Into these operators, weights and a generalized mean are embedded for aggregation, and they are used for comparison tasks and for this reason they are referred to as comparison measures. The thesis illustrates how these operators can be weighted with a differential evolution and aggregated with a generalized mean, and the kinds of measures of comparison that can be achieved from this procedure. New operators suitable for comparison measures are suggested. These operators are combination measures based on the use of t-norms and t-conorms, the generalized 3_-uninorm and pseudo equivalence measures based on S-type implications. The empirical part of this thesis demonstrates how these new comparison measures work in the field of classification, for example, in the classification of medical data. The second application area is from the field of sports medicine and it represents an expert system for defining an athlete's aerobic and anaerobic thresholds. The core of this thesis offers definitions for comparison measures and illustrates that there is no actual difference in the results achieved in comparison tasks, by the use of comparison measures based on distance, versus comparison measures based on many valued logical structures. The approach has been highly practical in this thesis and all usage of the measures has been validated mainly by practical testing. In general, many different types of operators suitable for comparison tasks have been presented in fuzzy logic literature and there has been little or no experimental work with these operators.

In this work is presented and tested (for 106 adducts, mainly of the zinc group halides) two empirical equations supported in TG data to estimate the value of the metal-ligand bond dissociation enthalpy for adducts: <D> (M-O) = t i / g if t i < 420 K and <D> (M-O) = (t i / g ) - 7,75 . 10-2 . t i if t i > 420 K. In this empirical equations, t i is the thermodynamic temperature of the beginning of the thermal decomposition of the adduct, as determined by thermogravimetry, andg is a constant factor that is function of the metal halide considered and of the number of ligands, but is not dependant of the ligand itself. To half of the tested adducts the difference between experimental and calculated values was less than 5%. To about 80% of the tested adducts, the difference between the experimental (calorimetric) and the calculated (using the proposed equations) values are less than 15%.

Let $X$ be a smooth complex algebraic variety. Morgan showed that the rational homotopy type of $X$ is a formal consequence of the differential graded algebra defined by the first term $E_{1}(X,W)$ of its weight spectral sequence. In the present work, we generalize this result to arbitrary nilpotent complex algebraic varieties (possibly singular and/or non-compact) and to algebraic morphisms between them. In particular, our results generalize the formality theorem of Deligne, Griffiths, Morgan and Sullivan for morphisms of compact Kähler varieties, filling a gap in Morgan"s theory concerning functoriality over the rationals. As an application, we study the Hopf invariant of certain algebraic morphisms using intersection theory.

Fuzzy subsets and fuzzy subgroups are basic concepts in fuzzy mathematics. We shall concentrate on fuzzy subgroups dealing with some of their algebraic, topological and complex analytical properties. Explorations are theoretical belonging to pure mathematics. One of our ideas is to show how widely fuzzy subgroups can be used in mathematics, which brings out the wealth of this concept. In complex analysis we focus on Möbius transformations, combining them with fuzzy subgroups in the algebraic and topological sense. We also survey MV spaces with or without a link to fuzzy subgroups. Spectral space is known in MV algebra. We are interested in its topological properties in MV-semilinear space. Later on, we shall study MV algebras in connection with Riemann surfaces. In fact, the Riemann surface as a concept belongs to complex analysis. On the other hand, Möbius transformations form a part of the theory of Riemann surfaces. In general, this work gives a good understanding how it is possible to fit together different fields of mathematics.

Tässä diplomityössä optimoitiin nelivaiheinen 1 MWe höyryturbiinin prototyyppimalli evoluutioalgoritmien avulla sekä tutkittiin optimoinnista saatuja kustannushyötyjä. Optimoinnissa käytettiin DE – algoritmia. Optimointi saatiin toimimaan, mutta optimoinnissa käytetyn laskentasovelluksen (semiempiirisiin yhtälöihin perustuvat mallit) luonteesta johtuen optimoinnin tarkkuus CFD – laskennalla suoritettuun tarkastusmallinnukseen verrattuna oli jonkin verran toivottua pienempi. Tulosten em. epätarkkuus olisi tuskin ollut vältettävissä, sillä ongelma johtui puoliempiirisiin laskentamalleihin liittyvistä lähtöoletusongelmista sekä epävarmuudesta sovitteiden absoluuttisista pätevyysalueista. Optimoinnin onnistumisen kannalta tällainen algebrallinen mallinnus oli kuitenkin välttämätöntä, koska esim. CFD-laskentaa ei olisi mitenkään voitu tehdä jokaisella optimointiaskeleella. Optimoinnin aikana ongelmia esiintyi silti konetehojen riittävyydessä sekä sellaisen sopivan rankaisumallin löytämisessä, joka pitäisi algoritmin matemaattisesti sallitulla alueella, muttei rajoittaisi liikaa optimoinnin edistymistä. Loput ongelmat johtuivat sovelluksen uutuudesta sekä täsmällisyysongelmista sovitteiden pätevyysalueiden käsittelyssä. Vaikka optimoinnista saatujen tulosten tarkkuus ei ollut aivan tavoitteen mukainen, oli niillä kuitenkin koneensuunnittelua edullisesti ohjaava vaikutus. DE – algoritmin avulla suoritetulla optimoinnilla saatiin turbiinista noin 2,2 % enemmän tehoja, joka tarkoittaa noin 15 000 € konekohtaista kustannushyötyä. Tämä on yritykselle erittäin merkittävä konekohtainen kustannushyöty. Loppujen lopuksi voitaneen sanoa, etteivät evoluutioalgoritmit olleet parhaimmillaan prototyyppituotteen optimoinnissa. Evoluutioalgoritmeilla teknisten laitteiden optimoinnissa piilee valtavasti mahdollisuuksia, mutta se vaatii kypsän sovelluskohteen, joka tunnetaan jo entuudestaan erinomaisesti tai on yksinkertainen ja aukottomasti laskettavissa.

The topological solitons of two classical field theories, the Faddeev-Skyrme model and the Ginzburg-Landau model are studied numerically and analytically in this work. The aim is to gain information on the existence and properties of these topological solitons, their structure and behaviour under relaxation. First, the conditions and mechanisms leading to the possibility of topological solitons are explored from the field theoretical point of view. This leads one to consider continuous deformations of the solutions of the equations of motion. The results of algebraic topology necessary for the systematic treatment of such deformations are reviewed and methods of determining the homotopy classes of topological solitons are presented. The Faddeev-Skyrme and Ginzburg-Landau models are presented, some earlier results reviewed and the numerical methods used in this work are described. The topological solitons of the Faddeev-Skyrme model, Hopfions, are found to follow the same mechanisms of relaxation in three different domains with three different topological classifications. For two of the domains, the necessary but unusual topological classification is presented. Finite size topological solitons are not found in the Ginzburg-Landau model and a scaling argument is used to suggest that there are indeed none unless a certain modification to the model, due to R. S. Ward, is made. In that case, the Hopfions of the Faddeev-Skyrme model are seen to be present for some parameter values. A boundary in the parameter space separating the region where the Hopfions exist and the area where they do not exist is found and the behaviour of the Hopfion energy on this boundary is studied.

Research on color difference evaluation has been active in recent thirty years. Several color difference formulas were developed for industrial applications. The aims of this thesis are to develop the color density which is denoted by comb g and to propose the color density based chromaticity difference formulas. Color density is derived from the discrimination ellipse parameters and color positions in the xy , xyY and CIELAB color spaces, and the color based chromaticity difference formulas are compared with the line element formulas and CIE 2000 color difference formulas. As a result of the thesis, color density represents the perceived color difference accurately, and it could be used to characterize a color by the attribute of perceived color difference from this color.

In the paper Busaniche and Cignoli (2009) we presented a quasivariety of commutative residuated lattices, called NPc-lattices, that serves as an algebraic semantics for paraconsistent Nelson's logic. In the present paper we show that NPc-lattices form a subvariety of the variety of commutative residuated lattices, we study congruences of NPc-lattices and some subvarieties of NPc-lattices.

ABSTRACT Knowledge of natural water availability, which is characterized by low flows, is essential for planning and management of water resources. One of the most widely used hydrological techniques to determine streamflow is regionalization, but the extrapolation of regionalization equations beyond the limits of sample data is not recommended. This paper proposes a new method for reducing overestimation errors associated with the extrapolation of regionalization equations for low flows. The method is based on the use of a threshold value for the maximum specific low flow discharge estimated at the gauging sites that are used in the regionalization. When a specific low flow, which has been estimated using the regionalization equation, exceeds the threshold value, the low flow can be obtained by multiplying the drainage area by the threshold value. This restriction imposes a physical limit to the low flow, which reduces the error of overestimating flows in regions of extrapolation. A case study was done in the Urucuia river basin, in Brazil, and the results showed the regionalization equation to perform positively in reducing the risk of extrapolation.

The three main topics of this work are independent systems and chains of word equations, parametric solutions of word equations on three unknowns, and unique decipherability in the monoid of regular languages. The most important result about independent systems is a new method giving an upper bound for their sizes in the case of three unknowns. The bound depends on the length of the shortest equation. This result has generalizations for decreasing chains and for more than three unknowns. The method also leads to shorter proofs and generalizations of some old results. Hmelevksii’s theorem states that every word equation on three unknowns has a parametric solution. We give a significantly simplified proof for this theorem. As a new result we estimate the lengths of parametric solutions and get a bound for the length of the minimal nontrivial solution and for the complexity of deciding whether such a solution exists. The unique decipherability problem asks whether given elements of some monoid form a code, that is, whether they satisfy a nontrivial equation. We give characterizations for when a collection of unary regular languages is a code. We also prove that it is undecidable whether a collection of binary regular languages is a code.

The behavior of Petrov-Galerkin formulations for shallow water wave equations is evaluated numerically considering typical one-dimensional propagation problems. The formulations considered here use stabilizing operators to improve classical Galerkin approaches. Their advantages and disadvantages are pointed out according to the intrinsic time scale (free parameter) which has a particular importance in this kind of problem. The influence of the Courant number and the performance of the formulation in dealing with spurious oscillations are adressed.

This paper gives a detailed presentation of the Substitution-Newton-Raphson method, suitable for large sparse non-linear systems. It combines the Successive Substitution method and the Newton-Raphson method in such way as to take the best advantages of both, keeping the convergence features of the Newton-Raphson with the low requirements of memory and time of the Successive Substitution schemes. The large system is solved employing few effective variables, using the greatest possible part of the model equations in substitution fashion to fix the remaining variables, but maintaining the convergence characteristics of the Newton-Raphson. The methodology is exemplified through a simple algebraic system, and applied to a simple thermodynamic, mechanical and heat transfer modeling of a single-stage vapor compression refrigeration system. Three distinct approaches for reproducing the thermodynamic properties of the refrigerant R-134a are compared: the linear interpolation from tabulated data, the use of polynomial fitted curves and the use of functions derived from the Helmholtz free energy.
