Multiphysics modeling: materials, components, and systems

This title focuses on situations where coupled phenomena like thermal, flow and mechanics occur.

Important fundamentals of the various physics that are required in multiphysics modelling are given before more advanced linear and non-linear behaviours are tackled, such as creep deformation and drapeability, noise absorption under thermofluid, and static and dynamic loading.

In addition to theory, solutions to practical problems, such as when to use 2D or 3D modelling are addressed, as are the specific techniques for multiphysics modeling of high performance materials and energy systems.

Drawing on teaching experience, industry solutions, and the latest research, this text is the most complete guide to multiphysics modelling available for students and researchers in mechanical engineering, biomaterials, civil engineering and materials science.
