16. Theoretical and numerical studies of sound propagation in low-Mach-number duct flows
Sammanfattning : When sound waves propagate in a duct in the presence of turbulent flow, turbulent mixing can cause attenuation of the sound waves extra to that caused by the viscothermal effects. Experiments show that compared to the viscothermal effects, this turbulent absorption becomes the dominant contribution to the sound attenuation at sufficiently low frequencies. LÄS MER
17. Topics in Simulation and Stochastic Analysis
Sammanfattning : Paper A investigates how to simulate a differentiated mean in cases where interchanging differentiation and expectation is not allowed. Three approaches are available, finite differences (FD's), infinitesimal perturbation analysis (IPA) and the likelihood ratio score function (LRSF) method. LÄS MER
18. Approximating Stochastic Partial Differential Equations with Finite Elements: Computation and Analysis
Sammanfattning : Stochastic partial differential equations (SPDE) must be approximated in space and time to allow for the simulation of their solutions. In this thesis fully discrete approximations of such equations are considered, with an emphasis on finite element methods combined with rational semigroup approximations. LÄS MER
19. Near-Field Radiative Heat Transfer between Plasmonic Nanostructures
Sammanfattning : Radiative heat transfer (RHT) due to coupled electromagnetic near field scan significantly exceed that dictated by Planck’s law. Understanding such phenomenon is not only of fundamental scientific interest, but also relevant to a broad range of applications especially connected to nanotechnologies. LÄS MER
20. Hydrodynamics and heat convection in channels with vibrating walls
Sammanfattning : In this work a combined analytical and numerical study of the non-linear effects of transverse wall vibrations on fluid flows are presented. Streaming motions and their effect on heat and mass transfer are investigated for a viscous fluid confined in an infinite channel with flexible walls. LÄS MER
