Computational Techniques for Multiphase Flows
Author: Guan Heng YeohPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080914896
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 658
Book Description
Mixed or multiphase flows of solid/liquid or solid/gas are commonly found in many industrial fields, and their behavior is complex and difficult to predict in many cases. The use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has emerged as a powerful tool for the understanding of fluid mechanics in multiphase reactors, which are widely used in the chemical, petroleum, mining, food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries. Computational Techniques for Multiphase Flows enables scientists and engineers to the undertand the basis and application of CFD in muliphase flow, explains how to use the technique, when to use it and how to interpret the results and apply them to improving aplications in process enginering and other multiphase application areas including the pumping, automotive and energy sectors. - Understandable guide to a complex subject - Important in many industries - Ideal for potential users of CFD

Book Description
The Sixth Edition of this influential best-selling book delivers the most up-to-date and comprehensive text and reference yet on the basis of the finite element method (FEM) for all engineers and mathematicians. Since the appearance of the first edition 38 years ago, The Finite Element Method provides arguably the most authoritative introductory text to the method, covering the latest developments and approaches in this dynamic subject, and is amply supplemented by exercises, worked solutions and computer algorithms.• The classic FEM text, written by the subject's leading authors • Enhancements include more worked examples and exercises• With a new chapter on automatic mesh generation and added materials on shape function development and the use of higher order elements in solving elasticity and field problemsActive research has shaped The Finite Element Method into the pre-eminent tool for the modelling of physical systems. It maintains the comprehensive style of earlier editions, while presenting the systematic development for the solution of problems modelled by linear differential equations. Together with the second and third self-contained volumes (0750663219 and 0750663227), The Finite Element Method Set (0750664312) provides a formidable resource covering the theory and the application of FEM, including the basis of the method, its application to advanced solid and structural mechanics and to computational fluid dynamics. - The classic introduction to the finite element method, by two of the subject's leading authors - Any professional or student of engineering involved in understanding the computational modelling of physical systems will inevitably use the techniques in this key text
Modeling and Simulation in Thermal and Fluids Engineering

Pedagogical features including solved problems and unsolved exercises are interspersed throughout the text for better understanding. The textbook is primarily written for senior undergraduate and graduate students in the field of mechanical engineering for courses on modeling and simulation. The textbook will be accompanied by teaching resource including a solution manual for the instructors.
Probabilities and Materials
Author: D. BreyssePublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401111421
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
Most industrial and natural materials exhibit a macroscopic behaviour which results from the existence of microscale inhomogeneities. The influence of such inhomogeneities is commonly modelled using probabilistic methods. Most of the approaches to the evaluation of the safety of structures according to probabilistic criteria are somewhat scattered, however, and it is time to present such material in a coherent and up-to-date form. Probabilities and Materials undertakes this task, and also defines the great tasks that must be tackled in coming years. For engineers and researchers dealing with materials, geotechnics, solid mechanics, soil mechanics, statistics and stochastic processes. The expository nature of the book means that no prior knowledge of statistics or probability is required of the reader. The book can thus serve as an excellent introduction to the nature of applied statistics and stochastic modelling.
Transfinite Mappings and Their Application to Grid Generation

Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 22
Book Description
The two essential ingredients of any boundary value problem are the field equations which describe the physics of the problem and a set of relations which specify the geometry of the problem domain. Mesh generations or grid generators are preprocessors which decompose the problem domain into a large number of interconnected finite elements or curvilinear finite difference stencils. A number of such techniques have been developed over the pat decade to alleviate the frustration and reduce the time involved in the tedious manual subdividing of a complex-shaped region or 3-D structure into finite elements. Our purpose here is to describe how the techniques of bivariate and trivariate blending function interpolation, which were originally developed for and applied to geometric problems of computer-aided design of sculptured surfaces and 3-D solids, can be adapted and applied to the geometric problems of grid generation. In contrast to other techniques which require the numerical solution of complex partial differential equations (and, hence, a great deal of computing), the transfinite methods proposed herein are computationally inexpensive.
