Mathematical Modelling and Adaptive Finite Element Simulation of Viscoelastic Fluid-Structure Interaction Systems and Chemical Processes with Applications to Ophthalmology
(2023)
The aim of this thesis is the numerical analysis of nonlinear coupled partial differential equations and their application to ophthalmology. Firstly, we consider fluid-structure interaction problems where the fluid is either Newtonian or viscoelastic. The structure is modelled as a hyperelastic material. The application to ophthalmology lies in the interaction of the vitreous with its surrounding elastic structures like the sclera and the lens. The underlying flow in the vitreous is modelled by a viscoelastic Burgers ...

Analysis of a Coupled Fluid-Elastic Interaction Problem
(2023-01)
In this thesis, a non-linear system of partial differential equations is studied, describing the motions of an elastic structure which is immersed into an incompressible viscous fluid. The displacement of the elastic structure is modelled by a Lamé system and the fluid velocity as well as the fluid pressure are described by the Navier-Stokes equations. The structure and the fluid are coupled via two boundary conditions at the interface which correspond to continuity of velocities and forces. As the elasticity is ...

Computing Ground States for Fermi-Bose Mixtures through Efficient Numerical Methods
(2023-05)
In this work, we will first review the Quantum Mechanics theory to derive the main equations. Next, we will analyze these equations by Functional Analysis methods to find conditions for existence, uniqueness, multiplicity, and other properties as positivity. Next, we will review and develop some numerical methods for solving the nonlinear Schrödinger equation, its time version, generalizations with rotational terms, and systems of NLSE (NLSS). We notice that the main problem to run numerical methods is the memory ...

Propagation and branching strategies for job shop scheduling minimizing the weighted energy consumption
(2023)
We consider a job shop scheduling problem with time windows, flexible energy prices, and machines whose energy consumption depends on their operational state (offline, ramp-up, setup, processing, standby or ramp-down). The goal is to find a valid schedule that minimizes the overall energy cost. To solve this problem to optimality, we developed a branch-and-bound algorithm based on a time-indexed integer linear programming (ILP) formulation, which uses binary variables that describe blocks spanning multiple inactive ...

Identifying critical demand periods in capacity planning for networks including storage
(2023)
We consider a capacity planning problem for networks including storage. Given a graph and a time series of demands and supplies, we seek for integer link and storage capacities that permit a single commodity flow with valid storage in- and outtakes over all time steps. This problem arises, for example, in power systems planning, where storage can be used to buffer peaks of varying supplies and demands. For typical time series spanning a full year at hourly resolution, this leads to huge optimization models. To reduce ...
Dissertation
Generation Human Body Motion by the Centralized Networks
(2023)
The main goal of the thesis is to describe and study reduced models for efficient simulations of human body motions (HBM). To this end, we propose new coupled oscillator models, which are networks of dynamically coupled elements. These networks consist of a few of centers and many satellites. The centers evolve in time as periodical oscillators with different frequencies. The satellite states are defined via center states by a radial basis function (RBF) networks. To simulate different motions we adjust the parameter ...
Dissertation
On the analysis of path-dependent functionals of stochastic PDEs
(2023)
Weak approximation methods for stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) are concerned with approximating the probability distribution of the solution process rather than the realizations of the solution process itself. In this thesis, we provide new results and methods concerning the weak error analysis of numerical approximations of path-dependent functionals of solution processes of SPDEs. Two separate approaches to analyzing weak approximation errors are considered: the Itô calculus approach and the ...
