Relativistic hydrodynamics and other topics in numerical relativity

In this thesis I consider three different projects in numerical relativity. The first one is a study of the spherically-symmetric collapse of a scalar field with a potential that mimics the inclusion of angular momentum. This work has been carried out in collaboration with M.W. Choptuik, W. Unruh an...
