  2. 1. Semi-deterministic numerical simulations of wear on various scales : From chemo-mechanical effects to the wear of components in orbital type hydraulic motors

    Author : Joel Furustig; Staffan Björklund; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : A costly effect, caused by the relative motion of machine components in contact, is wear. Solid surfaces come into contact when the lubricant film thickness is thin, resulting in locally high pressures and high wear rates. Components and machines will, due to this wear, eventually lose their functionality. READ MORE

  4. 2. Accurate quadrature and fast summation in boundary integral methods for Stokes flow

    Author : Joar Bagge; Anna-Karin Tornberg; Katarina Gustavsson; Adrianna Gillman; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Numerical Analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns accurate and efficient numerical methods for the simulation of fluid flow on the microscale, known as Stokes flow or creeping flow. Such flows are important, for example, in understanding the swimming of microorganisms, spreading of dust particles, as well as in developing new nano-materials, and microfluidic devices that can be used for on-the-fly analysis of blood samples, among other things.

    Abstract : The thesis concerns simulation techniques for systems of nano- to micro-scaled rigid particles immersed in a viscous fluid, ubiquitous in nature and industry. With negligible fluid inertia, the set of PDEs known as the Stokes equations can be used to model the hydrodynamics. READ MORE

  6. 4. Numerical Approximation of Reaction and Diffusion Systems in Complex Cell Geometry

    Author : Qasim Ali Chaudhry; Michael Hanke; Maya Gueorguieva Neytcheva; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Complex Cell Geometry; Reaction and Diffusion System; Metabolism in Biological Cells; Homogenization; Compartment Modelling; Numerical analysis; Numerisk analys;

    Abstract : The mathematical modelling of the reaction and diffusion mechanism of lipophilic toxic compounds in the mammalian cell is a challenging task because of its considerable complexity and variation in the architecture of the cell. The heterogeneity of the cell regarding the enzyme distribution participating in the bio-transformation, makes the modelling even more difficult. READ MORE

    Abstract : Solving linear systems of equations is a fundamental problem in engineering. Moreover, applications involving the solution to linear systems arise in the social sciences, business, and economics. Specifically, the research conducted in this dissertation explores solutions to linear systems where the system matrix depends nonlinearly on a parameter. READ MORE
