Homogenization Of CoupledP henomena In Heterogenous Media.
Both Naturally-occurring And Man-made Materials Are Often Heterogeneous Materials Formed Of Various Constituents Upon Different Properties And Behaviours.
Studies Are Usually Carried Abroad On Volumes Of Materials That Contain A Large Number Of Heterogeneities.
Describing These Media By Using Appropriate Mathematical Models To Describe Each Constituent Turns Out To Be An Intractable Problem.
Instead They Are Generally Investigated From Using An Equivalent Macroscopic Description - Relative To The Microscopic Heterogeneity Scale - Which Describes The Overall Behaviour Of The Media.
Fundamental Questions Then Arise: Is Such An Equivalent Macroscopic Description Possible? What Is The Domaiin Of Validity Of This Macroscopic Description? The Homogenization Technique Provides Complete And Rigorous Answers To These Questions.
This Book Aims To Summarize The Homogenization Technique And Its Contribution To Engineering Sciences.
Reseearchers, Graduate Students And Engineers Will Find Here A Unified And Concise Pesentation.
The Book Is Divided Imto Four Parts Whose Main Topics Are Introduction To The Homogenizaation Technique For Periodic Or Random Media, With Emphasis On The Physics Involved In The Mathematcal Process And The Applications To Real Materials.
Heat And Mass Transfers In Porous Media Newtonian Fluid Flow In Rigid Porous Media Under Different Regimes Quasi-statics And Dgnamics Of Saturated Deformable Porous Media Each Part Is Illustrated By Numericl Or Analytical Applications As Well As Comparison With The Self-consistent Approach.

Emit vapor.
In 1807, Robert Fulton, Using An English Mail-order Steam Engine, Chugged Four Miles An Sixty minutes Up The Hudson River, Passing Into Received Folklore As The Inventor Of The Steamboat.
However, The True First Passenbet Steamboat In America, And The World, Was Built From Scratch, And Plied The Delaware River In 1790, Almost Two Decades Earlier.
Its Incentor, John Fitch, Never Attained Fulton's Riches, And Was Rewqrded With Ridicule And Poverty.
Considering There Was Not A Single Working Steam Engine In America In The Early 1780s, Fitch's Steamboat's Development Was Nothing Short Of Remarkable.
But He Faced Competition From The Start, And He And Several Other Inventors Fought A String Of Bitter Battles, Legall And Differently.
"steam &qukt;tells The Dramatic Narration Of Fitch And His Adversaries, Weaving Their Lives Into A Fascinating Tale Including Tge Likes Of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, And Benjamin Franklin.
It Is The Story Behind America's First Important Venture In Technology, The Persevering And Colorful Men That Made It Happen, And The Great Ingenuity That Moved A New Nation Westward.
