Bachelor's and Master's theses with a mathematical focus in the variant A teacher training program and Bachelor's theses in the two-subject Bachelor's program are possible. Second assessor for MA theses in environmental sciences with mathematical modeling.

Main topics Bachelor's theses:

1. application-related mathematical problems and their solutions using numerical/iterative solution methods, application of mathematical software (Octave GeoGebra Maxima, COMSOL Multiphysics, etc.) Applied problems and their solution approaches via numerical and optimization methods as described in the book Haigh, J.: Mathematics in Everyday Life, Springer 2016.

Prerequisites for working on the topic from applied mathematics are the knowledge of numerics and modeling gained in Module 6

2. mathematical description of spatially and temporally varying processes using ordinary and partial differential equations, their derivation in mathematical physics. Equations of fluid dynamics.

3. differential equations in school: at the interface with subject didactics. Conceptual teaching content with motivating applications and computer-supported implementation can be developed here.

Main topics of Master's theses:

Mathematical and numerical modeling and simulation of various fluid dynamic aspects with multi-physical phenomena. Physiological, hemodynamic or aerodynamic applications are possible, for example:

1. fluid-solid interaction with elastic walls, kinematic splitting methods

2. multiphase fluids: falling droplets / rising bubbles,

3. particle dynamics in the flow,

4. diffusion processes with background flow

Development & analysis & implementation of new effective/optimized numerical algorithms can also be assigned as a topic.

Prerequisites: Fundamentals of differential equations and their discretization methods (Module 9, 10).

As a Bachelor's or Master's thesis, the modeling topic from the course Mathematics Modeling, submodule 6.3 can be deepened and further developed if necessary and after consultation.

In addition to open-source software (Octave, Maxima CAS), it is possible to use one of our class licenses for COMSOL Multiphysics (finite-element-based software for partial differential equations) as part of the Bachelor's or Master's thesis. For high-resolution 3-dimensional calculations, the resources of our parallel computing cluster in the university computing center can be used.
