1. Adaptive finite element methods for parameter estimation problems in partial differential equations
Sammanfattning : Physical and chemical phenomena are often described by a system of partial di®erential equations. These equations usually involve unknown parameters, which cannot be measured directly but which can be adjusted to make the model predictions match the observed data. LÄS MER
2. Fatigue Life Prediction in Service - A Statistical Approach
Sammanfattning : This thesis treats the problem of fatigue life prediction. The emphasis is on the development of simplified methods, intended to be used in engineering design and the starting point is the established methods for fatigue prediction in service, namely the Wöhler curve, the Paris´ law and the Palmgren-Miner law of cumulative damage.

3. Parameter estimation in heterogeneous catalysis
Sammanfattning : The detailed modelling of heterogeneous catalytic systems is challenging due to the unknown nature of new catalytic materials as well as the often required transient nature of the resulting models. Thus, this thesis deals with the methodologies involved in the kinetic modelling of heterogeneous catalysis and in particular NOx reduction systems. LÄS MER
4. What Will We Learn? : A Mathematical Treatise of Cultural Evolution
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we apply mathematics and formal modeling to study culture from an evolutionary standpoint. Cultural evolution theory is based on the belief that we can increase our understanding of human behavior by studying how culture is created and spread. LÄS MER
5. Efficient Adaptive Algorithms for an Electromagnetic Coefficient Inverse Problem
Sammanfattning : This thesis comprises five scientific papers, all of which are focusing on the inverse problem of reconstructing a dielectric permittivity which may vary in space inside a given domain. The data for the reconstruction consist of time-domain observations of the electric field, resulting from a single incident wave, on a part of the boundary of the domain under consideration. LÄS MER
