A chapter in Currents in Industrial Mathematics, 2015, pp 3-30 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This book is dedicated to mathematics-based topics that are driven by practical problems whose solutions generate innovation. The formulations of these problems have arisen in the context of projects carried out at the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial Mathematics (ITWM), and the majority of the authors of this book are either employed at the Fraunhofer ITWM or are closely affiliated with it. Fraunhofer Institutes dedicate their work to problems in industry; a mathematical Fraunhofer Institute therefore makes “Industrial Mathematics”.
