Efficient multiscale methods for micro/nanoscale solid state heat transfer
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)In this thesis, we develop methods for solving the linearized Boltzmann transport equation (BTE) in the relaxation-time approximation for describing small-scale solidstate heat transfer. We first discuss a Monte Carlo (MC) ... -
Numerical approaches for sequential Bayesian optimal experimental design
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)Experimental data play a crucial role in developing and refining models of physical systems. Some experiments can be more valuable than others, however. Well-chosen experiments can save substantial resources, and hence ... -
Finite element solution of interface and free surface three-dimensional fluid flow problems using flow-condition-based interpolation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)The necessity for a highly accurate simulation scheme of free surface flows is emphasized in various industrial and scientific applications. To obtain an accurate response prediction, mass conservation must be satisfied. ...
