1. Adaptive variational multiscale methods
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we present a new adaptive multiscale method for solving elliptic partial differential equations. The method is based on numerical solution of decoupled local fine scale problems on patches. LÄS MER
2. Adaptive Finite Element Methods for Optimal Control Problems
Sammanfattning : In this thesis we study the numerical solution of optimal control problems. The problems considered consist of a systemof differential equations, the state equations, which are governed bya control variable. The goal is to determine the states and controls which minimize a given cost functional. LÄS MER

4. Some Applications of Variational Inequalities in Mathematical Finance and Numerics
Sammanfattning : This thesis contains two parts. The first part deals with a stochastic impulse control problem, subject to the restriction of a minimum time lapse in between interventions made by the controller. We prove existence of an optimal control and show that the value function of the control problem satisfies a system of quasi-variational inequalities. LÄS MER
5. Ghosts and machines : regularized variational methods for interactive simulations of multibodies with dry frictional contacts
Sammanfattning : A time-discrete formulation of the variational principle of mechanics is used to provide a consistent theoretical framework for the construction and analysis of low order integration methods. These are applied to mechanical systems subject to mixed constraints and dry frictional contacts and impacts---machines. LÄS MER
