Abstract:
The two-dimensional interface crack problem is investigated for anisotropic bodies in the Comninou formulation. It is established that, as in the isotropic case, properly incorporating contact zones at the crack tips avoids contradictions connected with the oscillating asymptotic behaviour of physical and mechanical characteristics leading to the overlapping of material. Applying the special integral representation formulae for the displacement field the problem in question is reduced to the scalar singular integral equation with the index equal to -1. The analysis of this equation is given.

Abstract:
This research investigates the general user interface problems in using networked services. Some of the problems are: users have to recall machine names and procedures to. invoke networked services; interactions with some of the services are by means of menu-based interfaces which are quite cumbersome to use; inconsistencies exist between the interfaces for different services because they were developed independently. These problems have to be removed so that users can use the services effectively. A prototype system has been developed to help users interact with networked services. This consi

Abstract:
"Certain physical problems in electrostatics, magnetostatics, and heat transfer give rise to elliptic boundary value problems with transmission conditions on a layer. We focus on a particular problem with a second order transmission condition, representing an infinitely conductive layer. To approximate irregular layers that may naturally arise, a sequence of layers that converge to the fractal von Koch curve is considered. The solution to this transmission problem with a prefractal layer exhibits singularities due to the transmission condition across the layer as well as the reentrant corners

A class of immersed finite element (IFE) spaces is developed for solving elliptic boundary value problems that have interfaces.

These different spaces are constructed by (i) using a hierarchical approach, (ii) imposing extra continuity requirements or (iii) using a local r

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to derive adaptive methods for discontinuous Galerkin approximations for both elliptic and parabolic interface problems. The derivation of adaptive method, is usually based on a posteriori error estimates. To this end, we present a residual-type a posteriori error estimator for interior penalty discontinuous Galerkin (dG) methods for an elliptic interface problem involving possibly curved interfaces, with flux-balancing interface conditions, e.g., modelling mass transfer of solutes through semi-permeable membranes. The method allows for extremely general curved elemen

Abstract:
In this dissertation we discuss bilinear immersed finite elements (IFE) for solving interface problems. The related research works can be categorized into three aspects: (1) the construction of the bilinear immersed finite element spaces; (2) numerical methods based on these IFE spaces for solving interface problems; and (3) the corresponding error analysis. All of these together form a solid foundation for the bilinear IFEs. The research on immersed finite elements is motivated by many real world applications, in which a simulation domain is often formed by several materials separated from e

Abstract:
The main portion of my thesis focuses on a 2-dimensional second order heat transmission problem in domains with pre-fractal interfaces. My focus is on the numerical approximation of the solutions. Precisely, I€™m concerned to develop a suitable mesh refinement algorithm that could be adapted to our situation, by taking into account the regularity of the solutions and the geometry of irregular pre-fractal interfaces. I obtain an error estimate between the weak solution and the discrete solution, which indicates an optimal rate of convergence as in the classical case when the solution has H^2-re

Abstract:
This thesis considers applications of gradient-based optimization algorithms to the design and control of some mechanics systems. The material distribution approach to topology optimization is applied to design two different acoustic devices, a reactive muffler and an acoustic horn, and optimization is used to control a ball pitching robot. Reactive mufflers are widely used to attenuate the exhaust noise of internal combustion engines by reflecting the acoustic energy back to the source. A material distribution optimization method is developed to design the layout of sound-hard material inside
