Stable Embedded Grid Techniques in Computational Mechanics
… whether physical or introduced by numerical methodologies, are commonplace. Just a few examples include fracture and fault mechanics, classical contact-impact, phase boundary propagation, and fluid-structure interaction. This dissertation focuses on issues of numerical stability and accuracy …

Adaptive Spline-based Finite Element Method with Application to Phase-field Models of Biomembranes
… model, traditional finite element methods necessitate the finite element mesh to align with surfaces of discontinuities. Diffuse-interface model replaces the sharp interface with continuous variations of an order parameter resulting in significant computational effort. To overcome …

Numerical methods for mass transport equations in two-phase incompressible flows
In this thesis, we presented numerical methods for discretizing and solving the mass transport problem in two-phase flows. The level set method is used for capturing the time-dependent interface. The motion of the fluid is described by the two-phase Navier-Stokes equations. For the spatial …
