This master thesis reports on the research of simulating hill ascensions on winter roads. By utilizing Python and Excel a simple prototype simulation was created. This simulation shows the velocity changes during the ascension, with different variables such as: initial velocity, gear, weight distribution, environment etc. The variables used are mostly based on real life measurements, with a ...

In this paper we study the homogenization of a nonautonomous parabolic equation with a large random rapidly oscillating potential in the case of one-dimensional spatial variable. We show that if the potential is a statistically homogeneous rapidly oscillating function of both temporal and spatial variables, then, under proper mixing assumptions, the limit equation is deterministic, and convergence ...

In this paper homogenization of a mathematical model for plant tissue biomechanics is presented. The microscopic model constitutes a strongly coupled system of reaction-diffusion-convection equations for chemical processes in plant cells, the equations of poroelasticity for elastic deformations of plant cell walls and middle lamella, and Stokes equations for fluid flow inside the cells. The chemical ...

We prove that by scaling nearest-neighbour ferromagnetic energies de ned on Poisson random sets in the plane we obtain an isotropic perimeter energy with a surface tension characterised by an asymptotic formula. The result relies on proving that cells with `very long' or `very short' edges of the corresponding Voronoi tessellation can be neglected. In this way we may apply Geometry Measure ...

The paper deals with periodic homogenization problem for a para\-bo\-lic equation whose elliptic part is a convolution type operator with rapidly oscillating coefficients. It is assumed that the coefficients are rapidly oscillating periodic functions both in spatial and temporal variables and that the scaling is diffusive that is the scaling factor of the temporal variable is equal to the square of ...

The paper deals with homogenization of Navier–Stokes-type system describing electrorheological fluid with random characteristics. Under non-standard growth conditions we construct the homogenized model and prove the convergence result. The structure of the limit equations is also studied.

Verden befinner seg i dag i en rask og omveltende teknologisk utvikling, der alle næringer blir påvirket av digitalisering som radikalt endrer måten å jobbe, samhandle og kommunisere på. Over lengre tid har byggebransjen vært en bransje der innovasjon og nytenkning ikke har vært et satsningsområde. Synkende effektivitet og økt konkurranse mellom aktører har medført at en endring av arbeidsmetode er ...
