Andreas Apostolatos

As a Senior Computational Engineer/Postdoctoral Researcher my primary occupation is the algorithmic Multilevel Monte Carlo Simulation for the stochastic optimization of structures against wind. The underlying methods among other include: Stabilized Finite Element Methods for Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Fluid Dynamics for Embedded Geometries, Exact Geometry Description in terms of Computer-Aided Design etc.

As a Junior Computational Engineer/Doctoral Candidate my primary task was the development of computer methods and algorithms for the prediction of coupled Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) phenomena in Isogeometric Structural Analysis (IGA).

Finite Element Method (FEM), Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Isogeometric Analysis (IGA), Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE), Lightweight Structures, Plates, Membranes, Kirchhoff-Love shells, coupled Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI), etc.

Finite Element Method (FEM), Computer-Aided Design (CAD), Isogeometric Analysis (IGA), Scientific Computing (C++), Modeling and Simulation, Continuum Mechanics, Structural Dynamics, Material Modeling, Lightweight Structures (Plates, Shells, Membranes), Fluid Dynamics, etc.

Finite Element Method, Variational Calculus, Variational Inequalities, Contact Mechanics, Frictionless Contact, Linear Elasticity, Lagrange Multipliers, etc.

Selected topics in Mechanics, Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science. My specializations were Applied Mechanics (Continuum Mechanics, Numerical Methods in Engineering, Finite Element Methods, etc.) and Statistics (Probability Theory, Linear Regression Analysis, etc.).
