(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
We set out to find how copula-based dependence modelling of large jumps in the NIG-Lévy model affects the option price. This leads to the definition of a rejection-based approximation algorithm for the NIG-Lévy.

Buckling Strength Assessment of Stiffened Steel Panels in Floating Offshore Structures Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Stiffened plates are common components in many structures, from plate girders and box girder bridges to ships and offshore structures. Stiffened and unstiffened plates buckle into doubly curved surfaces which complicates ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Information collected from warning systems monitoring natural threats can be synthesized into a risk measure to determine the state of nature, and for defining the threshold for issuing (or not) of an early warning. This ...
Mortalitetsvingninger og kapital på lang sikt Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Endringer i dødelighetsmønstre er et område som forsikringsbransjen har lagt mer og mer vekt på den siste tiden. Dette er som følge av at man over lengre tid har observert en stadig økning i menneskets forventede ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Particle deposition in the lungs have so far been modeled mainly with the assumption of laminar flow. In the present study, several Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models are used to simulate the airflow ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Denne oppgaven omhandler sammenføyninger av åpne tverrsnitt ved bruk av skrueforbindelser. Det er veldig viktig at skrudde sammenføyninger har en hensiktsmessig utforming, og at kapasiteten dimensjoneres “riktig” etter ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
In this study, I examined data from a large cohort of HIV infected individuals of both genders from a small township of Bangwe in Malawi to demonstrate the influence of general weight loss, a reported AIDS wasting syndrome ...
Problem Solving Environment for Partial Differential Equations in Python Restricted Access
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
This master thesis presents a collection of tools for solving partial differential equations using Python. Three different Python modules make up the majority of the thesis.
When solving partial differential equations ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
Numerical simulation of the airflow inside a slowly rotating aerosol chamber is carried out using a high resolution LES and several RANS based turbulence models. The result of the LES revealed a complex turbulent flow field ...
(Master thesis / Masteroppgave, 2009)
In this paper were shown derivation of methods of Roe, Haarten-Lax-Leer and Lax Friedrichs, using of these methods in splitting schemes for shallow water with magnetohydrodynamics. An analysis of behavior of such schemes ...
