6. Phase-field modeling of stress-induced precipitation and kinetics in engineering metals
Sammanfattning : The formation of brittle compounds in metals operating in corrosive environments can be a tremendous source of embrittlement for industrial structures and such phenomenon is commonly enhanced in presence of stresses. To study this type of microstructural change modeling is preferred to experiment to reduce costs and prevent undesirable environmental impacts. LÄS MER
7. Numerical methods and multi-scale modeling for phase-field fracture - With applications in linear elastic and poro-elastic media
Sammanfattning : This thesis presents novel numerical methods and a multi-scale modelling framework tailored for advancing the phase-field fracture model with applications in linear elastic and poro-elastic media. In the realm of the numerical methods, the focus lies on devising computationally efficient and robust monolithic solution techniques. LÄS MER
8. Computational Techniques for Coupled Flow-Transport Problems
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
9. On the Growth of Bone through Stress Driven Diffusion and Bone Generation Processes
Sammanfattning : In order to prevent or modify bone degeneration due to rest or due to diseases such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, the modeling and remodeling of bone tissue must be better understood. In this thesis it is assumed that the primary condition leading to bone growth is a change of the chemical environment caused by transport of matter resulting from stress driven diffusion. LÄS MER
10. Phase change with stress effects and flow
Sammanfattning : In this thesis two kinds of phase change i.e., solid state phase transformation in steels and solid-to-liquid phase transformation in paraffin, have been modeled and numerically simulated. LÄS MER
