Provably convergent anisotropic output-based adaptation for continuous finite element discretizations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)The expansion of modern computing power has seen a commensurate rise in the reliance on numerical simulations for engineering and scientific purposes. Output error estimation combined with metric-based mesh adaptivity ... -
Development and assessment of a physics-based model for subcooled flow boiling with application to CFD
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Boiling is an extremely efficient mode of heat transfer and is the preferred heat removal mechanism in power systems in general and, more recently, in electronics cooling. Physics-based models that describe boiling heat ... -
A molecular dynamics study of the tribological properties of diamond like carbon
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Diamond like carbon (DLC) is an attractive choice as a coating for mechanical components, because of its excellent wear resistance and very low coefficient of friction . We use molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with a ...
