Weighted Residual Methods: Principles, Modifications and Applications

Weighted Residual Methods for Engineering Problems: Least Square, Collocation, and Galerkin introduces a range of WRMs, and provides examples to show how they can be used to solve complex engineering problems with greater accuracy and computational efficiency. These focus on non-linear problems, including the motion of a spherical particle, nanofluid flow and heat transfer, magnetohydrodynamic flow and heat transfer, and micropolar fluid flow and heat transfer. These are important factors in understanding processes such as filtration, combustion, air and water pollution, and micro contamination. In addition to the applications, the reader is provided with full derivations of the governing equations, and also summaries of the important research that has been carried out in this field to date. Includes the basic code for each method, giving readers a head start in using WRMs for computational modelingProvides full derivations of important governing equations in a number of emerging fields of studyOffers numerous detailed examples of a range of applications in heat transfer, nanotechnology, medicine, and more INDICE: 1.
