Multiphysics Modeling describes the basic principles and methods for multiphysics modeling, covering related physics such as structure mechanics, fluid dynamics, heat transfer, electromagnetic field, and noise. Providing up to date information on basic numerical methods and, critically, the coupling issues specific to each area, the book moves on to consider coupled problems spanning fluid-solid interaction, thermal-stress coupling, fluid-solid-thermal coupling, electromagnetic -solid-thermal-fluid coupling, and structure-noise coupling. With author team expertise in cutting edge academic research, industrial application and code development, the book covers background theory, algorithms, key technologies and applications for each coupling method as well as exploring real engineering multiphysics problems across areas such as automotive, aerospace and biomedical engineering. Multiphysics Modeling provides a valuable broad-base of methods and techniques for solving multiphysics problems and is an ideal resource for engineers and researchers tasked with the design and analysis of complex engineering systems.
It presents a wealth of multiphysics modeling methods, issues and worked examples in one single volume, providing a go-to resource for coupling and multiphysics problems, not tied to one piece of software. It covers the multiphysics detail not touched upon in broader numerical methods references, including load transfer between physics, element level strong coupling, interface strong coupling, single code weak coupling, and inter-solver weak coupling methods. It discusses practical applications throughout and tackles real-life multiphysics problems across areas such as automotive, aerospace and biomedical engineering.
