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
