1. Patient-Specific Finite Element Modeling of the Blood Flow in the Left Ventricle of a Human Heart
Abstract : Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. Therefore, numerous studies are undertaken to identify indicators which can be applied to discover cardiac dysfunctions at an early age. READ MORE

2. Structure exploiting optimization methods for model predictive control
Abstract : This thesis considers optimization methods for Model Predictive Control (MPC). MPC is the preferred control technique in a growing set of applications due to its flexibility and to the natural way in which constraints can be incorporated in the control policy. READ MORE

3. Parallel computing in model-based process engineering
Abstract : Chemical processes are usually expensive to run. To optimise a process, we need to know how the process behaves, and this is usually accomplished by studying the process experimentally. However, experiments are very expensive, particularly if an existing plant has to shut down normal operation to conduct an experiment. READ MORE

4. Compilation of mathematical models to parallel code
Abstract : Generating parallel code from high-level mathematical models is in its general form an intractable problem. Rather than trying to solve this problem, a more realistic approach is to solve specific problem instances for limited domains. READ MORE

5. Computational Techniques for Coupled Flow-Transport Problems
Abstract : This thesis presents numerical techniques for solving problems of incompressible flow coupled to scalar transport equations using finite element discretizations in space. The two applications considered in this thesis are multi-phase flow, modeled by level set or phase field methods, and planetary mantle convection based on the Boussinesq approximation. READ MORE
