MODELING AND SIMULATION IN SCIENCE ENGINEERING ...

Despite the fact that fluid dynamics and filtration through porous media and mathematics  there
are classical research areas in engineering  physics  are still many industrial processes that
require the study of new mathemat ical models for flows of particular complexity  due to the
peculiar properties of the systems involved. The aim of this book is to provide a number of
examples showing how frequently such situations arise in various branches of industrial
technology. The selection of the subjects was motivated not only by their industrial rel evance
and mathematical interest. What I had in mind was a collection of problems having a really
distinctive character  thus bringing some fresh air into one of the oldest and most revered
domains of applied mathematics. The incredible richness of nonstandard flow problems in
industrial appli cations has always been  and still is  a constant surprise to me. Therefore I
tried to offer a very large spectrum of subjects  with special attention devoted to those
problems in which the modeling phase is far from being obvious  and the mathematical content is
absolutely nontrivial. With such a view to diversity  topics have been selected from a variety
of sources (such as glass industry  polymers science  coffee brewing  fuels pipelining)  and
contributors from different backgrounds (mathematics  physics  chemical engineering) have been
included. Consequently  the mathematical nature of the problems formulated spans over a large
range  so that their theoret ical investigation and numerical computation require a variety of
different techniques.
