Abstract

In Chap. 2, the transport mechanisms that form the basis for materials processing were discussed. The governing equations, based on the conservation principles, were presented, along with many additional effects that are of particular interest in various manufacturing processes. The solution to these equations is needed in order to provide information on the behavior of the system and its dependence on the important parameters in the problem. The results also provide guidelines for choosing the various boundary conditions to obtain the desired product and the inputs needed for the design and optimization of the process. Though experimental results can be obtained in a few selected cases, analytical and numerical approaches, particularly the latter, are extensively used to obtain the desired information and inputs. This chapter considers analytical and numerical, as well as experimental, methods for studying materials processing systems. It presents the various approaches that may be employed. The focus is on the computational approach that is necessary for the simulation of a wide variety of manufacturing processes. Different solution methods, challenges to be overcome, and typical results are presented.
