Asymptotische Aequivalenz fuer ein Modell unabhaengiger nicht identisch verteilter Daten
Die Dissertation ``Asymptotische \Äquivalenz f\ür ein Modell unabh\ängiger nicht identisch verteilter Daten'' besch\äftigt sich mit der Le Camschen Theorie der Experimente. Le Cam hat den sogenannten -Abstand zwischen statistischen Experimenten definiert; ist dieser Abstand f\ür zwei Modelle klein, so sind ihre statistischen Eigenschaften \ähnlich. Zwei Folgen von Experimenten nennt man asymptotisch \äquivalent, falls ihr -Abstand gegen Null konvergiert.\\ In dieser Arbeit beweisen wir asymptotische \Äquivalenz zwischen einem Modell mit unabh\ängigen, nicht identisch verteilten Beobachtungen und einem Gaußschen Shift-Modell. Die i-te Beobachtung des ersten Experimentes ist dabei gem\äß einer Dichte verteilt, wobei die Funktion h eine Schar von Dichten bildet. Wir approximieren also ein kompliziertes statistisches Experiment durch ein einfacheres, n\äymlich ein Gaußsches Shift-Modell. Die Dichten h geh\ören einer Menge h\ölderstetiger Funktionen an, so daß wir es mit einem nichtparametrischen Problem zu tun haben. Das von uns bewiesene \Äquivalenzresultat kann auch als eine nichtparametrische Version der ebenfalls von Le Cam eingef\ührten LAN Bedingung aufgefaßt werden. Ein wichtiges Hilfsmittel zum Beweis des oben beschriebenen Resultats ist das sogenannte Coupling von stochastischen Prozessen, d.h. die Konstruktion solcher Prozesse auf einem gemeinsamen Wahrscheinlichkeitsraum, so daß die Prozesse nahe beieinander liegen. Im zweiten Teil der Arbeit beweisen wir eine funktionale Version eines solchen Coupling Resultats f\ür den sequentiellen empirischen Prozeß und den Kiefer-M\üller Prozeß unter Verwendung der sogenannten Ungarischen Konstruktion.The thesis "Asymptotic Equivalence of Experiments for a Model with Independent and Nonidentically distributed Observations" deals with the theory of experiments that was developped by Le Cam. \\ Le Cam defined the so called -distance between experiments. If this distance is small for two given models it means that their statistical properties are similar. We call two sequences of experiments asymptotic equivalent if their -distance converges to zero.\\ In this thesis we prove asymptotic equivalence between a model with independent and nonidentically distributed observations and a Gaussian shift model. The i-th observation in the first model is distributed according to a density where is a bunch of densities on the unit interval. This means that we approximate a complicated statistical experiment by a simpler one, namely a Gaussian shift model. The densites h belong to a H\"older ball such that we have a nonparametric problem. Our result can also be viewed as a nonparametric version of the LAN property which was also defined by Le Cam. An important tool for proving our result is the coupling of stochastic processes, i.e. the construction of processes on a common probability space such that they are close in a strong sense. In the second part of the thesis we prove a functional version of such a coupling result for the sequential empirical process and the Kiefer-M\"uller process by using the Hungarian construction
Heat exchanger/reactors (HEX reactors): Concepts, technologies: State-of-the-art
Process intensification is a chemical engineering field which has truly emerged in the past few years and is currently rapidly growing. It consists in looking for safer operating conditions, lower waste in terms of costs and energy and higher productivity; and away to reach such objectives is to develop multifunctional devices such as heat exchanger/reactors for instance. This review is focused on the latter and makes a point on heat exchanger/reactors. After a brief presentation of requirements due to transposition from batch to continuous apparatuses, heat exchangers/reactors at industrial or pilot scales and their applications are described
Asymptotic equivalence of discretely observed diffusion processes and their Euler scheme: small variance case
This paper establishes the global asymptotic equivalence, in the sense of the
Le Cam -distance, between scalar diffusion models with unknown drift
function and small variance on the one side, and nonparametric autoregressive
models on the other side. The time horizon is kept fixed and both the cases
of discrete and continuous observation of the path are treated. We allow non
constant diffusion coefficient, bounded but possibly tending to zero. The
asymptotic equivalences are established by constructing explicit equivalence
mappings.Comment: 21 page
Microstructured catalytic hollow fiber reactor for methane steam reforming
Microstructured alumina hollow fibers, which contain a plurality of radial microchannels with significant openings on the inner surface, have been fabricated in this study and used to develop an efficient catalytic hollow fiber reactor. Apart from low mass-transfer resistance, a unique structure of this type facilitates the incorporation of Ni-based catalysts, which can be with or without the aged secondary support, SBA-15. In contrast to a fixed bed reactor, the catalytic hollow fiber reactor shows similar methane conversion, with a gas hourly space velocity that is approximately 6.5 times higher, a significantly greater CO2 selectivity, and better productivity rates. These results demonstrate the advantages of dispersing the catalyst inside the microstructured hollow fiber as well as the potential to reduce the required quantity of catalyst
