11. High Performance Adaptive Finite Element Methods : With Applications in Aerodynamics
Abstract : The massive computational cost for resolving all scales in a turbulent flow makes a direct numerical simulation of the underlying Navier-Stokes equations impossible in most engineering applications. Recent advances in adaptive finite element methods offer a new powerful tool in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). READ MORE

12. Feathers by day, membranes by night - Aerodynamic performance in bird and bat flight
Abstract : The efficiency and performance of a flying animal is directly related to the aerodynamics around its body and flapping wings. Here, I have developed methods for quantifying the wake dynamics around a flying animal. The results are used to estimate the aerodynamic performance of flapping flight. READ MORE

13. Driving stability of passenger vehicles under crosswinds
Abstract : Passenger cars are a vital part of modern society, giving people the freedom of flexible travel. As technology advances, customers increase their demands for future products. The automotive industry must, therefore, adapt to society's requirements of energy-efficient travel, where developing low drag vehicles is key. READ MORE

15. Investigation of Rear-Mounted Cooling Module Installations for Heavy Vehicles
Abstract : Due to stricter emissions legislations and increasing fuel prices vehicle efficiency must be improved. A trend that has been seen during recent years is increased engine power for many vehicle segments. Different exhaust gas after-treatment systems have also been introduced to be able to meet the emission demands. READ MORE
