Boosted robustness of semi-implicit subgrid methods for shallow water flash floods in hills

The widespread availability of high-resolution Digital Elevation Models (DEM), has led to the development of subgrid numerical modeling techniques, based on Shallow Water Equations (SWE). Detailed DEM data is clustered as much as possible within a coarse grid cell that is preferably much larger than a raster pixel. This has considerable...

Design the Next-generation Atrial Fibrillation Diagnosis Device: An off-hospital, continuous, long-term heart monitoring product

This is a 5-month master graduation project in collaboration with Praxa Sense to design the next generation Atrial Fibrillation diagnosis device. A long-term (more than one month) continuous, off-hospital diagnosis device is designed with the focus on user experience and diagnosis accuracy. There are several phases in this project including...

A note on the calculation of consistent tangent operators for Von Mises and Drucker-Prager plasticity

Risk analysis of navigation systems and the associated concept of required navigation performance

Due to the increasing demand for aircraft operations in the next decades, new airspace management concepts arise which allow an enlargement of airspace capacity. Main question is whether these new concepts provide flight safety equal or better than the current safety level. To answer this question, the navigation process taking place during any...
