Industrial Application of Computational and Numerical Approaches to Particle Flow I


Description:
Particles flows represent a considerable large family of relevant engineering problems where several scales and phases maybe involved. One important tool in understanding the physical behavior of the system and in the solution to the important flow fields is the use of powerful computational methodologies and economical strategies suitable for the different applications. In this session, we would like to receive contributions in the general topics of computational approaches that solve or address industrial scale problems. In particular, efficient and innovative techniques to solve particle flow. Other approaches that introduce innovation in more classical problems will be also considered
