Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Multiphase flow is an area of fluid dynamics that describes interactions between two or more phases of matter and is relevant across a wide range of industrial processes and natural environmental systems, from the transport of natural resources to volcanic ash flow. This book covers the topic in detail, providing clear explanations of the underlying physics behind the complex behaviour of solid particles in fluids. The forces involved in particle-fluid interactions are first used to describe the interactions between the particles, and the fundamentals of contact mechanics are then outlined and applied to model interparticle collisions. The book is illustrated with frequent worked examples and algorithms, enabling the reader to develop the required tools for simulating the flow of fluids with solid particles. This self-contained text will appeal to physicists, applied mathematicians and mechanical engineers working in this important area of research.
