1. Iteratively Decodable Convolutional Codes: Analysis and Implementation Aspects
Abstract : This thesis addresses the theory and implementation aspects of iteratively decodable codes. Iteratively decodable codes include, in particular, Gallager's regular low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, Tanner's generalized LDPC (GLDPC) codes, turbo codes due to Berrou et. al. and expander codes.

2. Multiscale materials design of hard coatings for improved fracture resistance and thermal stability
Abstract : Physical vapor deposited hard coatings comprised of cubic (c) transition metal (TM)-Al-N, and (TM)-Si-N are the current workhorse materials for a large number of metal cutting and wear resistant applications to fight against the extreme conditions of temperature and stress simultaneously. In spite of a high degree of sophistication in terms of material choice and microstructural design, a lower fracture resistance and limited thermal stability of the coatings remains a technological challenge in the field.

3. ZrN based Nanostructured Hard Coatings : Structure-Property Relationship
Abstract : Ever since the hard coatings have been introduced, there has been a constant push for better mechanical properties, which motivates for deeper understanding of the microstructure-mechanical properties correlation. The aim of this thesis is to extend the knowledge on how microstructural variation influences the deformation, fracture and wear behavior of ZrN based nanostructured coatings. READ MORE

4. Time, space and control: deep-learning applications to turbulent flows
Abstract : In the present thesis, the application of deep learning and deep reinforcement learning to turbulent-flow simulations is investigated. Deep-learning models are trained to perform temporal and spatial predictions, while deep reinforcement learning is applied to a flow-control problem, namely the reduction of drag in an open channel flow.
