In this review we discuss bifurcation theory in a Banach space setting using the singularity theory developed by Golubitsky and Schaeffer to classify bifurcation points. The numerical analysis of bifurcation problems is discussed and the convergence theory for several important bifurcations is described for both projection and finite difference methods. These results are used to provide a convergence theory for the mixed finite element method applied to the steady incompressible Navier–Stokes equations. Numerical methods for the calculation of several common bifurcations are described and the performance of these methods is illustrated by application to several problems in fluid mechanics. A detailed description of the Taylor–Couette problem is given, and extensive numerical and experimental results are provided for comparison and discussion.

Modeling and simulation of medical devices are typically established to identify parameter dependencies within the system of interest. Most devices are multiphysics problems considering solid and fluid mechanics, and electromagnetic mechanisms bridging time and length scales. Typically, the geometries of interest are described by complex morphologies of biological components. These factors all contribute to significant complexity of the developed numerical models. Access to imaging modalities capable of providing the geometrical information of relevance is central in the establishment and verification of numerical analysis. Here, data from image-based models obtained with MRI and μCT to risk access patients prone to realizing stroke, and to evaluate drug eluding scaffolds is presented.
