3. Modeling of foams for impact simulations
Abstract : Stimulated by the strong drive in the automotive industry to reduce energy consumption,and, linked to that, the need to reduce weight, this thesis concerns modeling of foams forimpact simulations. To start with, a continuum hyperelasto-viscoplastic model is developedwithin the framework of Theory of Porous Media. READ MORE

4. A Study on Sandwich Structures : Development, Mechanical Characterization and Numerical Modeling
Abstract : Legislative demands force the automotive industry to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. At the same time, crashworthiness must not be compromised. A ve-hicle’s GHG emissions, such as carbon dioxide, is dependent on its fuel consump-tion. Lowering the vehicle weight, reducing fuel consumption, will therefor reduce emissions. READ MORE

5. On mechanical characterization and multi-scale modeling of Lithium-ion batteries
Abstract : Over the last few decades, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries have been extensively used in portable instruments due to their high energy density and low self-discharge rate. Recently, lithium-ion batteries have emerged as the most promising candidate for electric vehicles and stationary energy storage. READ MORE
