    • 3D simulation of magneto-mechanical coupling in MRI scanners using high order FEM and POD 

      Seoane Chouciño, Marcos (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-07-15)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners have become an essential tool in the medical industry due to their ability to produce high resolution images of the human body. To generate an image of the body, MRI scanners combine ...

    • Complexity reduction in parametric flow problems via Nonintrusive Proper Generalised Decomposition in OpenFOAM 

      Tsiolakis, Vasileios (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-01-31)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      The present thesis explores the viability of the proper generalised decomposition (PGD) as a tool for parametric studies in a daily industrial environment. Starting from the equations modelling incompressible flows, the ...

    • High-fidelity surrogate models for parametric shape design in microfluidics 

      Borchini, Luca (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-12-17)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      Nowadays, the main computational bottleneck in computer-assisted industrial design procedures is the necessity of testing multiple parameter settings for the same problem. Material properties, boundary conditions or ...

    • Machine learning to build reduced order models of solid mechanic models with uncertainty 

      Felipe Ramudo, Valeria Agustina (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2020-08-31)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      In civil engineering, mining and the petroleum industry in-situ stress state knowledge is fundamental. To estimate the stress state in-situ methods are applied, these methods are not sufficient to fully estimate the stress ...

    • NURBS-Enhanced finite element hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin method with degree adaptivity for steady Stokes flow 

      Neerala Suresh, Karthik (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2017-06-13)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   LaCàN / Centre Internacional de Mètodes Numèrics a l'Enginyeria / Swansea University
      The aim of this project is to develop a high-order accurate space discretisation method for the solution of Stokes problems. The approach will consider a p-adaptive HDG method and NURBS-enhanced finite element method to ...

    • Static and dynamic global stiffness analysis for automotive pre-design 

      Cavaliere, Fabiola (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2022-04-06)
      Doctoral thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      In order to be worldwide competitive, the automotive industry is constantly challenged to produce higher quality vehicles in the shortest time possible and with the minimum costs of production. Most of the problems with ...

    • The face-centered finite volume method (FCFV) for steady-state incompressible Navier-Stokes equations 

      Qin, Shushu (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-06-14)
      Master thesis
      Open Access
      Covenantee:   Swansea University
      The face-centered finite volumes (FCFV) has been proposed [2,4]. FCFV may be derived as a hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) method with constant degree of approximation for all the variables [1,3,5]. Contrary to ...
