Thermo-mechanical simulation for fiber-optic measurement systems KU Leuven
This PhD is part of a project aiming to develop a novel approach for virtual sensing of dynamic quantities (strains, stresses, forces) in mechanical systems, exploiting fiber optical measurements in the considered structures. These types of sensors have shown great potential over the past decades due to the distributed nature of the information which can be extracted. However, in order to robustly apply these sensors, a proper correction for ...
Simulation supported vibro-acoustic monitoring of additive manufacturing parts KU Leuven
This PhD is part of a project called “MUSIC” aiming to produce first-time right zero-defect parts through additive manufacturing. This project aims to develop monitoring solutions fusing complementary information from optical sensors, and structural and airborne acoustic emission sensors. Given the complexity of combining different monitoring data streams, the project will employ data-driven models as well as physics-based signal analysis. ...
Cloud4Wake - Data enriched simulation of wakes for all wind turbines in the North Sea nudged by SCADA data and other field data deployed on cloud Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Cloud4wake wants to better investigate the wake effects in wind farms, in such a way that, among other things, the adverse effects (including a lower production capacity) can be tackled and the business case of the farms improves.
Data-driven simulation, uncertainty quantification and optimization for hyperbolic and kinetic models KU Leuven
Europe faces major challenges in science, society and industry, induced by the complexity of our dynamically evolving world. To tackle these challenges, mathematical models and computer simulations are indispensable, for instance to design and optimize systems using virtual prototypes. Moreover, while the big data revolution provides additional possibilities, it is currently unclear how to optimally combine simulation results with observation ...

Pore-scale modelling of moisture transfer in building materials: fullscale pore network construction and hygric property simulation KU Leuven
What if we were able to fully exploit the relation between the pore structure and the hygric properties of porous materials to truly ‘engineer’ the moisture performance of building materials ? Or more specifically, what if we were able to predict the moisture properties of building materials directly from pore structure information ? This would accelerate the hygric analysis of existing building materials and facilitate the hygric design of ...
Numerical analysis and simulation of exotic energy derivatives Ghent University
We consider numerical methods for the efficient and stable solution of advanced, multidimensional partial integro-differential equations (PIDEs) and partial integro-differential complementarity problems (PIDCPs) arising in financial energy option valuation. Here the underlying uncertain factors, e.g. the electricity price, are modelled by exponential Lévy processes to account for the jumps that are often observed in the markets. These jumps ...
