Our general strategy consists in using the discrete element method (DEM) to model the particles and the finite element method (FEM) to discretize the Navier-Stokes equations, which model the continuous phase.

Some real-world applications involve situations where different physical phenomena acting on very different time scales occur simultaneously. The partial differential equations (PDEs) governing such situations are categorized as "stiff" PDEs. Stiffness is a challenging property of differential equations (DEs) that prevents conventional explicit numerical integrators from handling a problem efficiently. For such cases, stability (rather than accuracy) requirements dictate the choice of time step size to be very small. Considerable effort in coping with stiffness has gone into developing time-di

Abstract:
Velmi přesná následná astrometrie je nezbytným předpokladem sledování blízkozemních objektů, které mohou představovat riziko srážky se Zemí. Tato práce přináší ucelený přehled přesné astrometrie, obsahuje potřebnou matematickou teorii, postup předzpracování snímků v astronomii, a nastiňuje použití filtrů. Navrhuje nové metody pro vyrovnání pozadí snímků před provedením astrometrického měření pro případ, kdy nejsou dostupné kalibrační snímky. Tyto metody jsou založeny na vytvoření syntetického flatfieldu pomocí aplikování filtru na snímek a následné užití tohoto flatfieldu pro odstranění pozadí

Abstract:
When dealing with the separation of materials, the metal shearing process such as punching, is widely used in theindustry due to its time efficient manner. There is however, a need to better understand the process in order toimprove quality of the final product. Working with numerical simulations of themetal shearing process, there aretwo major difficulties. One being the extremely large deformation, the other being material failure. The combinationof these two makes numerical modeling challenging and is the reason for this study.The problem was divided in to two main parts, one where material
