There has been an awful lot of people who helped me in the creation of this thesis, be it through their own work, like Prof. G. Dziuk, their advocacy, like Prof. J. Struck-meier, or their encouragement. For the latter my foremost thanks go to my companion Christine and to my mother Brigitte who have always been there for me. Finally, I want to thank Prof. H. Garcke who greatly helped to improve...

Abstract. We are concerned with convergence results for fully discrete finite-element schemes suggested in [Grün, Klingbeil, ArXiv e-prints (2012), arXiv:1210.5088]. They were developed for the diffuse-interface model in [Abels, Garcke, Grün, M3AS, 2012, DOI:10.1142/S0218202511500138] which is to describe two-phase flow of immiscible, incompressible viscous fluids. We formulate general conditio...

The car drag reduction problem is a major topic in the automotive industry because of its close link with fuel consumption reduction. Until recently, a computational approach of this problem was unattainable because of its complexity and its computational cost. A first attempt in this direction has been presented by the present author as part of a collaborative work with the French car manufact...

The time-dependent Stokes equations in twoor three-dimensional bounded domains are discretized by the backward Euler scheme in time and finite elements in space. The error of this discretization is bounded globally from above and locally from below by the sum of two types of computable error indicators, the first one being linked to the time discretization and the second one to the space discre...
