6. Improved Statistical Methods for Elliptic Stochastic Homogenization Problems : Application of Multi Level- and Multi Index Monte Carlo on Elliptic Stochastic Homogenization Problems
University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad beräkningsvetenskapAbstract : In numerical multiscale methods, one relies on a coupling between macroscopic model and a microscopic model. The macroscopic model does not include the microscopic properties that the microscopic model offers and that are vital for the desired solution. READ MORE

7. Approximating Damping Coefficient of Bolted Joints using the Finite Element Method
University essay from KTH/HållfasthetsläraAbstract : Bolted joints are important due to their energy dissipation property in structures,but the damping mechanism is also highly nonlinear and localized. The goal ofthis thesis is to develop an accurate method for modeling bolted joint dampingin large structures using finite element (FE) software. READ MORE

8. Homogenization of a higher gradient heat equation: Numerical solution of the cell problem using quadratic B--spline based finite elements
University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för matematik och datavetenskap (from 2013)Abstract : This study focuses on the numerical solution of a fourth-order cell problem obtained through a two- scale expansion approach applied to a higher gradient heat equation microscopic problem involving temperature distributions. The main objective is to investigate the temperature field within the macroscale domain and compute the effective conductivity using finite element methods. READ MORE

9. Structural responses due to underwater detonations : Validation of explosion modelling methods using LS-DYNA
University essay from Linköpings universitet/Mekanik och hållfasthetsläraAbstract : Modelling the full event of an underwater explosion (UNDEX) is complex and requires advanced modelling methods in order to achieve accurate responses. The process of an UNDEX includes a series of events that has to be considered. READ MORE
