1. High-Performance Finite Element Methods : with Application to Simulation of Diffusion MRI and Vertical Axis Wind Turbines
Abstract : The finite element methods (FEM) have been developed over decades, and together with the growth of computer engineering, they become more and more important in solving large-scale problems in science and industry. The objective of this thesis is to develop high-performance finite element methods (HP-FEM), with two main applications in mind: computational diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and simulation of the turbulent flow past a vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT).

2. 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

3. High Order Symmetric Finite Difference Schemes for the Acoustic Wave Equation
Abstract : When someone speaks, or when a piano is played, sound waves are spread through the room. Physically the propagation of sound is governed by the acoustic wave equation. This thesis deals with the problem of finding solutions to this equation by numerical methods. READ MORE

4. Slotless High-Performance Electric Drives : Harmonic Loss Analysis, Sensorless Control, and Inverter Design
Abstract : Electric motor drives are a cornerstone for many fundamental functions in today’s society, and their expected dominance within the transport sector is considered one of the main keys to abate global warming. Subsequently, the incentives for improved performance of electric motor drives cannot be sufficiently emphasized. READ MORE

5. Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Fluid Structure Interaction Problems with Applications to Human Phonation
Abstract : This work presents a unified framework for numerical solution of Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) and acoustics problems with focus on human phonation. The Finite Element Method is employed for numerical investigation of partial differential equations that model conservation of momentum and mass. READ MORE
