Overview
Research goal of the group is the development of mathematical methods for systems with bulk-interface processes for theThe analytical results form the basis for the development of numerical algorithms supporting simulations for applications with bulk-interface interaction.
Currently, the following applications are treated within the group:
 |  |  |
| Mechanical stresses and progression of damage for a tension test with a notched bar using a BV-regularized damage model | Cross-section through a laser-device: The optically active germanium region displays the hole currents (colors) and the contour lines of the main mode (red lines) | P1 FEM solution of free boundary problem showing thin droplets sliding down an inclined plane |
