Springer Advances on Links Between Mathematics and Industry: CTMI 2019: 15 (SxI - Springer for Innovation / SxI - Springer per l'Innovazione, 15)

This book results from the talks presented at the First Conference on Transfer between Mathematics & Industry (CTMI 2019). Its goal is to promote and disseminate the mathematical tools for Statistics & Big Data, MSO (Modeling, Simulation and Optimization) and their industrial applications. In this volume, the reader will find innovative advances in the automotive, energy, railway, logistics, and materials sectors. In addition, Advances CTMI 2019 promotes the opening of new research lines aiming to provide suitable solutions for the industrial and societal challenges. Fostering effective interaction between Academia and Industry is our main purpose with this book. CTMI conferences are one of the main forums where significant advances in industrial mathematics are presented, bringing together outstanding leaders from business, science and Academia to promote the use of mathematics for an innovative industry.

About the Author Peregrina Quintela is BSc Mathematical Sciences by the Universidade de Santiago de Compostela in 1982. She has a PhD in Mathematical Sciences by the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid (Madrid, Spain) in 1986 and is Docteur de l’Université de Paris VI in Mathematics (Université Pierre et Marie Curie, France) since 1988. Currently, Peregrina Quintela is Full Professor of Applied Mathematics at the University of Santiago de Compostela, specialized in mathematical modelling, mathematical analysis, and the numerical simulation of models arising from the fields of Physics, Engineering or Applied Sciences. In the field of mathematical modelling, she has mainly focused her research on solid thermo-mechanics; laws of linear and nonlinear behaviour (Hooke, Norton Hoff, anisotropy); linear and non-linear boundary conditions (mixed conditions, contact conditions with or without friction); heat transfer phenomena and their coupling with mechanical ones; and cracks analysis and its detection by Rayleigh waves.  In these research fields, she has led or participated in several research projects and contracts with companies dealing with: the simulation of thermo-mechanical deformation in cooling metal casting aluminium (ALCOA-INESPAL); the thermo-hydro-mechanical behavior of the cast process of blast furnaces for steel production (ArcelorMittal); the development of safe packaging systems to ship large stones (VascoGallega de Consignaciones-Kaleido); thermal and mechanical simulation of a heat exchanger (DETEGASA) and thermomechanical deformation of a filter bag structure (SiderNaval). Due to her interest in science transfer she has also been involved in modelling thermoelectric phenomena with phase change arising in the process of electrolysis of aluminium; the thermo-hydrodynamic phenomena to predict the water quality of a lake in an open-cast mine (Lignitos de Meirama); heat transfer coupled to a damage model to assess burns by airbags (Dalphi Metal); optimization of the cut of granite blocks to satisfy an order (Granitos Montefaro) and the training of
