1. Voronoi-Based Coding
Abstract : The performance of a digital communication system can generally be improved by increasing the number of variables being jointly coded. In this sense, it is desirable to have, e.g., higher-dimensional quantizers, longer channel codes, and more users in a multiple-access system. READ MORE

2. Non-overlapping Germ-grain Models: Characteristics and Material Modelling
Abstract : We consider three different non--overlapping germ--grain models, two of which are constructed in a similar fashion. These two models are generalisations of Mat\'ern's hard--core models. In both cases we start with a homogeneous Poisson process and use the points as centres of convex sets, grains, of the same shape. READ MORE

3. Metal Hydrogen Interaction and Structural Characterization of Amorphous Materials from first principles
Abstract : In this thesis, first-principles calculations based on density functional theory have been employed to investigate metal hydrogen interaction in transition, p-block and rare earth metals. Furthermore, the accuracy of the stochastic quenching method was tested in describing the structure of amorphous Fe(1-x)Zrx. READ MORE

4. Mechanical optimization of orthopaedic bone screw constructs
Abstract : Orthopaedic screw implants are crucial in surgical procedures for bone structures, with a longstanding issue being screw loosening. Improving screw stability requires an enhanced understanding of the bone-implant interactions and associated failure mechanisms. This knowledge can be used to optimize screw designs. READ MORE

5. Deriving effective forces for mesoscopic particle simulations
Abstract : In the field of molecular simulations, the long-standing aim has been to study mechanisms that cannot easily be observed in experiments or understood in terms of more abstract models. This is hard for systems of mesoscopic size (proteins, membranes etc. READ MORE
