This book explores generalized Lorenz-Mie theories when the illuminating beam is an electromagnetic arbitrary shaped beam relying on the method of separation of variables.
Fluid-structure interactions (FSI), that is interactions of some movable or deformable structure with an internal or surrounding fluid flow, are among the most important and, with respect to both modelling and computational issues, the most challenging multi-physics problems.
This volume contains the papers presented at the workshop on Statistical The- ories and Computational Approaches to Turbulence: Modern Perspectives and Applications to Global-Scale Flows, held October 10-13, 2001, at Nagoya Uni- versity, Nagoya, Japan.
Analysis and Modelling of Non-Steady Flow in Pipe and Channel Networks deals with flows in pipes and channel networks from the standpoints of hydraulics and modelling techniques and methods.
This book focuses on the most recent advances in the application of visualization and simulation methods to understand the flow behavior of complex fluids used in biomedical engineering and other related fields.
The subject of Elasticity can be approached from several points of view, - pending on whether the practitioner is principally interested in the mat- matical structure of the subject or in its use in engineering applications and, in the latter case, whether essentially numerical or analytical methods are envisaged as the solution method.
This textbook combines in a unique concept the design and construction of radial and axial fans with the problem of noise generation as well as its mitigation already in the fan development stage.
