Mathematical modelling and numerical solution is today firmly established in science and engineering. Research conducted in almost all branches of scientific investigation and the design of systems in practically all disciplines of engineering cannot be made effectively without an intensive numerical analysis. Our world has been classified by the human mind, for descriptive and analysis purposes, to consist of fluids and solids, continua and molecules, and the analyses of fluids and solids at continuum and molecular scales have been traditionally performed separately. Fundamentally, however, for any material there are only molecules and particles that interact on microscopic and macroscopic scales. Therefore, to unify the analysis of physical systems and to reach a deeper understanding of the behaviour of nature, a new level of analysis is necessary.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThis new level of mathematical and numerical modelling must encompass the solution of multi-physics problems involving fluids, solids and their interactions, must describe multiscale phenomena from the molecular to macroscopic scales, and must include uncertainties in given data and in the solution results. This new level of analysis must also include, in engineering applications, an effective optimization of systems and the modelling of complete life spans of engineering products, from design to fabrication, to possible multiple repairs, and finally to service.NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINESelected works presented in this two-volume collection attempt to describe such an approach to the modelling of physical phenomena. Contents: Vol. I: Plenary papers (8 papers); Solids and structures (153 papers); Optimization and design (48 papers); Vol. II: Fluids (72 papers); Multi-physics (102 papers) CFD for natural convection problem (16 papers); Algorithms (47 papers).NEWLINENEWLINENEWLINEThe book is suitable for researches and graduate students in engineering and mathematical modelling, and to practitioners and specialists in the area of numerical computations.
