• Simulation of Multibody Systems with Servo Constraints through Optimal Control 

      [OWP-2015-18] Altmann, Robert; Heiland, Jan (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2015)
      We consider mechanical systems where the dynamics are partially constrained to prescribed trajectories. An example for such a system is a building crane with a load and the requirement that the load moves on a certain path. ...
    • Time Discretization Schemes for Hyperbolic Systems on Networks by ε-Expansion 

      [OWP-2019-03] Altmann, Robert; Zimmer, Christoph (Mathematisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach, 2019-02-12)
      We consider partial differential equations on networks with a small parameter $\epsilon$, which are hyperbolic for $\epsilon>0$ and parabolic for $\epsilon=0$. With a combination of an $\epsilon$-expansion and Runge-Kutta ...
