  1. 21. Computational Modeling of Complex Flows

    Author : Johan Hoffman; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; computational fluid dynamics; adaptive finite element method; a posteriori error estimate; subgrid modeling; transition to turbulence; multiresolution analysis; object-oriented software; computational fluid dynamics;

    Abstract : In this thesis we consider the following aspects of computational modeling of complex flows: (i) subgrid modeling, (ii) stability, (iii) a posteriori error estimation, and (iv) computational platform. We develop a framework for adaptivity and error control for multiscale problems, in particular for turbulent flow, based on a posteriori error estimates. READ MORE

    Author : Robert Söderlund; Mats Larson; Victor Ginting; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; finite element methods; variational multiscale methods; Galerkin; convergence analysis; multiphysics; a posteriori error estimation; duality; adaptivity; Mathematical statistics; Matematisk statistik; Mathematical Statistics; matematisk statistik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we focus on multiscale and multiphysics problems. We derive a posteriori error estimates for a one way coupled multiphysics problem, using the dual weighted residual method. READ MORE

  3. 23. Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Optimal Control Problems

    Author : Karin Kraft; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; finite element method; discontinuous Galerkin method; optimal control; a posteriori error estimate; dual weighted residual; adaptive; multilevel algorithm; Newton method; control constraint; variational inequality; vehicle dynamics.;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study the numerical solution of optimal control problems. The problems considered consist of a system of differential equations, the state equations, which are governed by a control variable. The goal is to determine the states and controls which minimize a given cost functional. READ MORE

  5. 25. A Two-stage Numerical Procedure for an Inverse Scattering Problem

    Author : John Bondestam Malmberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; coefficient inverse problem; inverse scattering; backscattering data; approximate global convergence; finite element method; adaptivity; a posteriori error analysis; a posteriori error analysis;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study a numerical procedure for the solution of the inverse problem of reconstructing location, shape and material properties (in particular refractive indices) of scatterers located in a known background medium. The data consist of time-resolved backscattered radar signals from a single source position. READ MORE
