Contraportada

Providing a detailed reference that explains methodology and practice, Practical Aspects of Finite Element Modeling of Polymer Processing facilitates the transition from the theoretical treatment of the subject through to practical procedure via:
* a descriptive approach that does not require knowledge of advanced mathematical topics

* a detailed methodology for finite element modeling of various polymer processing flows

* working equations of various polymeric flow models in co-ordinate systems, which can be directly translated into computer code

* modelling methods illustrated by worked examples.
Computational fluid dynamics is a major investigative tool in the design and analysis of complex flow processes encountered in modern industrial operations. At the core of every computational analysis is a numerical method that determines its accuracy, reliability speed and cost effectiveness. The finite element method has been established as a powerful technique that provides these requirements in the solution of fluid flow and heat transfer problems.

This book develops finite element solution schemes for the governing equations of polymer processing flows and provides coverage of:
* Equations of non-Newtonian fluids mechanics

* Weighted residual finite element methods

* Polymeric flow process modeling

* Working equations of finite element schemes

* Finite element software

* Computer simulations
