    Description: This monograph has been written to illustrate the interlocking of theory, algorithm, and application in developing solution techniques for complex PDE systems. A deep theoretical understanding is necessary to produce a powerful idea leading to a successful algorithm. Efficient and robust implementation is the key to make the algorithm perform satisfactorily. The extra insight obtained by solving real--life problems brings out the structure of the method more clearly and suggests often ways to improve the numerical algorithm. It is my intention to impart the beauty and complexity found in both the theoretical investigation of the adaptive algorithm proposed here, i.e., the coupling of Rosenbrock methods in time and multilevel finite elements in space, and its realization. I hope that this method will find many more interesting applications.

    Description: We describe an optimization process specially designed for regional hyperthermia of deep seated tumors in order to achieve desired steady--state temperature distributions. A nonlinear three--dimensional heat transfer model based on temperature--dependent blood perfusion is applied to predict the temperature. Using linearly implicit methods in time and adaptive multilevel finite elements in space, we are able to integrate efficiently the instationary nonlinear heat equation with high accuracy. Optimal heating is obtained by minimizing an integral object function which measures the distance between desired and model predicted temperatures. A sequence of minima is calculated from successively improved constant--rate perfusion models employing a damped Newton method in an inner iteration. We compare temperature distributions for two individual patients calculated on coarse and fine spatial grids and present numerical results of optimizations for a Sigma 60 Applicator of the BSD 2000 Hyperthermia System.

    Description: We present a self-adaptive finite element method to solve nonlinear evolution problems in 3D. An implicit time integrator of Rosenbrock type is coupled with a multilevel approach in space. The proposed method is applied to hyperthermia treatments to demonstrate its potential for the solving of complicated problems.

    Description: In this article we consider a general model for phosphorus diffusion in silicon under extrinsic doping conditions. At such high concentrations we have to include the charged species and the internal electric field of the crystal, both of which can have profound effects on diffusion. In principle, this leads to a very large number of drift--diffusion--reaction equations: one for each charge state of every species, plus one Poisson equation to describe the internal electric field (in terms of the electron/hole concentration). The number of equations can be reduced substantially by making additional assumptions on the distribution of charge states and local equilibrium assumptions concerning the reaction terms. The resulting model turns out to be very interesting for numerical investigation. We solve the problem numerically in two space dimensions with the adaptive finite element program KARDOS and describe the numerical method used here to treat the resulting drift--diffusion--reaction problem.

    Description: We describe an optimization process specially designed for regional hyperthermia of deap seated tumors in order to achieve desired steady--state temperature distributions. A nonlinear three--dimensional heat--transfer model based on temperature--dependent blood perfusion is applied to predict the temperature. Optimal heating is obtained by minimizing an integral object function which measures the distance between desired and model predicted temperatures. Sequential minima are calculated from successively improved constant--rate perfusion models employing a damped Newton method in an inner iteration. Numerical results for a Sigma 60 applicator are presented.
