Teaching and lecture notes

• Material for the course "Ordinary Differential Equations" , Radboud University, 2009.
• Material for the course "Numerical Methods" , Radboud University, 2009.
• Lecture notes "Numerical Solution of Advection-Diffusion-Reaction Equations" , Thomas Stieltjes Institute, 2000.
  (Most of this material has been expanded for the 2003 Springer monograph with Jan Verwer.)

Research field

• Stiff ordinary differential equations,
• Time-dependent partial differential equations,
• Streamer simulations.

• Multirate Time Stepping for stiff ODEs and PDEs.
  Project with Valeriu Savcenco (former PhD student) and Jan Verwer; financed through NWO by a Peterich scolarship, 2004-2008.
  
  
• Monotonicity Preservation for Time Stepping Schemes.
  Project with Anna Mozartova (PhD student); collaboration with Marc Spijker (Leiden Univ.) and Steve Ruuth (SFU, Canada); financing by NWO, 2007-2010.
  
  
• Steamer Simulations.
  Collaboration with Ute Ebert in the research theme Multiscale Modelling and Nonlinear Dynamics . Computational research projects:
  • Grid refinements for streamer simulations: Carolynne Montijn (former PhD student, now at NLR, Amsterdam). Part of the Computational Science Programme of NWO, 2001-2006.
  • Coupling PDEs with Monte-Carlo models for streamers: PhD student Li Chao (C. Li); part of the BRICKS-MSV project, 2005-2009. Collaboration with Wouter Brok (TU Eindhoven, EPG).
  • Large scale numerical streamer simulations (with photo-ionizations, 3D) are also performed in the STW-project of Alejandro Luque (postdoc).
