Curving Performance of Railway Steering Truck with Asymmetric Leverage Ratio.

Leverage, performance and capital adequacy ratio in Taiwan’s banking industry

We examine the relation between firms’ financial structures and their risky investment strategies in Taiwan’s banking industry. Regressions cover two subperiods: before the first financial reform (1996– 2000) and after the first financial reform (2001–2006), to address the impacts of the first financial reform on banking firms’ financial structures. Our first result demonstrates that the restri...

Truck Steering System and Driver Interaction

This thesis presents a compilation of methods to consider when mapping steering functions and results as vehicle dimensions change. It is concluded that some final tuning inevitably will be required as major changes are performed. It is however possible to create qualified starting points using a set of simple rules as presented. Considered properties are steering wheel size, wheelbase, steerin...

Degree of Leverage Ratio Analysis in the Iranian Banking Network

The banks’ response to their changes in leverage ratios is examined and evaluated in this paper. This reaction can be interpreted as if the coefficient of total debts to equity (lev1) and total assets to equity (lev2) are positive as anticipated in the banking network of Iran. The paper uses data from 31 Iranian banks’ annual databases during the course of 2006-13 in order to estimate an empiri...

Asymmetric Smiles, Leverage Effects and Structural Parameters

Identification of LPV steering models of a truck

In the paper Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) models of a road-vehicle are presented, that describe the yaw dynamics, the steering system and the brake dynamics of the front wheels. The scheduling parameter is the vehicle velocity. The identification procedure is also detailed. The aim of the identification is to provide models for LPV yaw-rate controller design. The differential brake control on...
