1. Runge-Kutta Solution of Initial Value Problems: Methods, Algorithms and Implementation
Abstract : The last decades have seen a strongly increasing use of computers for modeling larger and more complex systems. This has been made possible by a combination of increasing computer power and easy-to-use graphical modeling environments and libraries of components. READ MORE

2. Numerical Simulation of Turbulent Flows for Turbine Blade Heat Transfer Applications
Abstract : Turbine blade heat transfer is an important engineering problem characterized by complex flow fields and high turbulence levels. This thesis is focused on using a full Navier-Stokes solver with two-equation eddy-viscosity models to predict external heat-transfer in single-stage, linear, two-dimensional uncooled turbine cascades.

3. Adaptive Algorithms and High Order Stabilization for Finite Element Computation of Turbulent Compressible Flow
Abstract : This work develops finite element methods with high order stabilization, and robust and efficient adaptive algorithms for Large Eddy Simulation of turbulent compressible flows. The equations are approximated by continuous piecewise linear functions in space, and the time discretization is done in implicit/explicit fashion: the second order Crank-Nicholson method and third/fourth order explicit Runge-Kutta methods.

4. Accuracy and Convergence Studies of the Numerical Solution of Compressible Flow Problems
Abstract : The numerical solution of compressible flow problems governed by the Navier-Stokes equations is considered. A finite volume method is used for the discretization in space. Different techniques to accelerate the convergence to a steady state are suggested, and the accuracy of the spatial difference operator is analyzed. READ MORE

5. Prediction of Wing Section Lift and Drag from Numerical Solutions of the Navier-Stokes Equations
Abstract : A Navier-Stokes finite difference method is developed and applied to two-dimensional, incompressible, viscous flow around wing sections at medium to high Reynolds numbers. An important feature of such flows is laminar boundary layers with spatially amplified Tollmien-Schlichting waves initiating transition to turbulence. READ MORE
