Abdollahi, Amir (Date of defense: 2012-10-18)
The unique electro-mechanical coupling properties of ferroelectrics make them ideal materials for use in micro-devices as sensors, actuators and transducers. Nevertheless, because of the intrinsic brittleness of ferroelectrics, ...
Olm Serra, Marc (Date of defense: 2019-02-18)
The main object of study of this thesis is the development of scalable and robust solvers based on domain decomposition (DD) methods for the linear systems arising from the finite element (FE) discretization of transient ...
Planas Badenas, Ramon (Date of defense: 2013-11-25)
Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is the physics branch that studies electrically conducting fluids under external magnetic fields. This thesis deals with the numerical approximation using stabilized finite element methods of two ...
