To my parents, Ana and Cornel, for their unconditional and unbreakable support iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my family, especially my husband, who has never stopped believing in me, and has never complained being a mother and a father to our two children while I was working on my research. Without him I would have never become the person I am today. I am very grateful I had the chance to meet my advisors, who have had so much patience and have never given up on me. The support I received from them was crucial to me, and their trust gave me the strength to finish what I had started. I would like to express my gratitude to all members of my committee for their continuous support and helpful suggestions. I would like to thank my good friend, Ionut Porumbel, from the School of Aerospace Engineering, for sharing all the ups and downs with me, for helping me with his expertise , and for being there for me at any time. Last but not least, I would like to thank my sister and my brother; their unconditional love is guiding me through life and is helping me be a better person.
