1. Arterial mechanics : noninvasive identification of constitutive parameters and residual stress
Abstract : This thesis concerns the mechanical modelling of arteries, and particularly a method to identify parameters describing the mechanical properties using only clinically obtainable in vivo measurements. The artery is modelled as a fibre reinforced, incompressible, thick-walled cylinder subjected to large deformations and a residual stress field. READ MORE

2. Linear and Nonlinear Mechanics of Lattice Materials : Computational Modelling and Experiments
Abstract : Lattice materials are artificial materials made of repeating unit-cells. The internal architecture of these materials can be engineered for a specific application such as energy absorption, heat transfer, or acoustic damping. READ MORE

3. Active Control and Reduced-Order Modeling of Transition in Shear Flows
Abstract : In this thesis direct numerical simulation is used to investigate the possibilityto delay the transition from laminar to turbulent in boundary layer flows.Furthermore, modal analysis is used to reveal the coherent structures in highdimensional dynamical systems arising in the flow problems.

4. Modelling of fracture toughness using peridynamics : A Study of J-integral, essential work and homogenisation
Abstract : Fracture toughness is one of the most important properties of a material. Being able toaccurately estimate the energy that goes into forming new crack surfaces is essential for the development of new materials, quality assurance, structural monitoring and failure analysis. READ MORE

5. Transient acoustic fields studied by pulsed TV holography
Abstract : Many of the acoustic events that reach our ears are produced by impacted and vibrating bodies. Pulsed holographic interferometry is a suitable technique to record transient events, like sound waves in air from an impacted body or the wave propagation in solid objects. READ MORE
