System Identification And Fault Detection Of Complex Systems
… for a system characterized by nonlinear dynamics. Mathematical models of dynamical systems and fault models are built based on observed data from systems. In particular, we will focus on statistical subspace instrumental variable methods which allow the consideration of an appealing …

Computation of moving interface flows in biophysical applications
… communication between the fluid and structure dynamics is established by the use of the Dirac delta function. Utilizing the immersed boundary method, we have studied three biophysical applications. In the first application, we computed the interaction between microtubules and cytoplasmic flow …

MATHEMATICAL MODELLING FOR REAL-TIME AND PROSPECTIVE ASSESSMENT OF INFECTIOUS DISEASES
… made under uncertainty about current and future dynamics. Mathematical models provide a way to combine mechanistic knowledge with surveillance data and to evaluate alternative intervention strategies. Building on this perspective, this thesis develops and applies mathematical modelling frameworks …

Modelling the spread of Sphaerothecum destruens, a generalist fungal pathogen.
… impacts of these pathogens effectively, their dynamics and drivers must be better understood. Using the only Mesomycetozoea fungal species that has been cultured to date, the generalist pathogen Sphaerothecum destruens, empirical data on infectivity and pathogen life cycle were used in several …

FLUID FILTRATION FROM CAPILLARY NETWORKS (MICROCIRCULATION, MATHEMATICAL MODELING).
A mathematical model has been developed which describes the fluid exchange from a capillary network of realistic topology, and calculates the spatial distribution of extravascular pressure. In this model, the capillaries are represented by a superposition of sources and sinks, resulting from a …

Shock formation properties of continuum and kinetic models
Continuum mechanics and kinetic theory are two mathematical theories with fundamentally different approaches to the same physical phenomenon. Continuum mechanics together with thermodynamics treat a substance (a gas or a fluid) as a continuous medium and describes the evolution of its macro …

Characterization of the Dynamics of Optically-Injected Nanostructure Lasers
… noise, mode-hopping, and chirp. The nonlinear dynamics associated with optically-injected semiconductor lasers has also attracted great interest due to potential applications including: all-optical amplitude-modulation to frequency-modulation conversion, chaotic-communication, and photonic …
