Preface
With great relieve I write the final words of my thesis and yet with great sadness I closeoff one of the richest periods in my life.More than a year ago I moved to Heiloo to do my thesis work at ECN. I was somewhat shivery about living with a stranger, since you never know who you might end up with.It turned out to be one of the most polite and kind people I ever met, a South-Africanmaster student from my own faculty with whom I would be spending most of my timesince he was also my office mate. Together with my newly found friend I moved to Alkmaar, the Jan van Goyenstraat to beexact. Here a rich social life developed with a large group of friends representing a wide variety of nationalities. In fact most of the time I was the only Dutch person in the group which made me appreciate my own country in a different way. Many activities, dinners,get-togethers were organised, if not through talking in the ECN-bus about the stuff wecould do after work then by participating in the ECN/JRC/NRG mailing list (dubbed the”spamlist”) which always contained some excuse to go to the beach or to grab a beer. All and all I met an interesting bunch of international(ly minded) people (and tryingto list them here would add another page to an already lengthy report) and did many interesting things (listing them would do the same..). Those who are closest to my heart I will meet again, sooner rather than later.I had a taste of being a stranger in my own country, in the near future I will be a stranger in a different country since by the suggestion of one of my new French friendsI will pursue a PhD in Paris.I wish my supervisor H¨useyin¨Ozdemir all the luck in the world, with the implementationof the schemes which will be a daunting task for implicit time stepping (especially for DG) but especially with Belgin (who cares about schemes anyway). I have come to know you as a kind and warm person and I doubt I will ever again have such a friendly andinformal relation with a supervisor. Out of interest I will continue the work on theschemes myself and I hope this will end up in a collaboration of some sort.Based on the studied literature it is my conviction that this Msc thesis is probably themost complete treatise on unsteady IBL methods that is currently available. I hope it isconsidered useful beyond the walls of ECN and the TUDelft. Velserbroek, 15 November 2009Bram van Esiii
