1. Uncertainty Quantification and Numerical Methods for Conservation Laws
Sammanfattning : Conservation laws with uncertain initial and boundary conditions are approximated using a generalized polynomial chaos expansion approach where the solution is represented as a generalized Fourier series of stochastic basis functions, e.g. orthogonal polynomials or wavelets.

2. Discrete Kinetic Models and Conservation Laws
Sammanfattning : Classical kinetic theory of gases is based on the Boltzmann equation (BE) which describes the evolution of a system of particles undergoing collisions preserving mass, momentum and energy. Discretization methods have been developed on the idea of replacing the original BE by a finite set of nonlinear hyperbolic PDEs corresponding to the densities linked to a suitable finite set of velocities.

3. Reconstruction Techniques and Finite Volume Schemes for Hyperbolic Conservation Laws
Sammanfattning : This thesis concerns the numerical approximation of the solutions to hyperbolic conservation laws. In particular the research work focuses on reconstruction techniques; the reconstruction being the key ingredient in modern finite volume schemes aiming to increase spatial order of accuracy. LÄS MER

5. Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Compressible Two-Phase Flow
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we develop, apply and analyse adaptive finite element methods with error control for compressible flow problems, focusing in particular on two-phase flow. The adaptive algorithms, aiming at quantitative error control with efficient use of computational resources, are based on a posteriori error estimates, where the error is estimated in terms of the computed solution, the local mesh-size and certain stability factors.
