Synopsis

Presents developments in computational techniques pertaining to moving boundary problems in fluid dynamics. It describes several computational techniques which can be applied to a variety of problems in thermo-fluid physics, multi-phase flow, and applied mechanics which involve moving flow boundaries. The book demonstrates the application of a variety of techniques for the numerical solution of moving boundary problems within the framework of the finite-volume approach, with appropriate examples.
