grateful for the funding by Volvo Aero and NFFP (VINNOVA’s Nationellt Flygtekniskt Forskningsprogram), thereby allowing me to concentrate on this specific research area that is close to my passion for engineering and computers. I would like to express my gratitude to my supervisor, Bengt-Olof Elfström, for his enthusiasm, experience, energy and belief in my ideas and excellent guidance in my research efforts. I would also like to thank Ola Isaksson for always finding some spare time to give me guidance. Thanks to all my colleagues at Volvo Aero who has participated in my research and contributed by educating me in my daily work. At the university I like to thank all my colleagues at the Division of Computer Aided Design for ideas and insights, my co-authors and Lennart Karlsson for making it all possible. Last I would like to thank my family and friends who have always stood by me giving me their support and comfort. Luleå, Maj 2007
