This book delivers a methodological approach on the experimentation
and/or simulation processes from the disclaiming hypothesis on a
physical phenomenon to the validation of the results. The main
benefit of the book is that it discusses all the topics related to
experimentation and validation of the outcome including
state-of-the-art applications and presents important theoretical,
mathematical and experimental developments, providing a
self-contained major reference that is appealing to both the
scientists and the engineers. At the same time, these topics are
encountered in a variety of scientific and engineering disciplines.
As a first step, it presents the theoretical and practical
implications on the formation of a hypothesis, considering the
existing knowledge collection, classification and validation of the
particular areas of experimenting interest. Afterwards, the
transition from the knowledge classes to the experimentation
parameters according to the phenomena evolution contributors and
the systemic properties of the descriptors are discussed. The major
experimenting requirements focus on the conditions to satisfy a
potential disclaim of the initial hypothesis as conditions.
Furthermore, the experimentation outcome, as derived via the
previous experimentation process set-up, would be validate for the
similarities among the existing knowledge and derived new one. The
whole methodology offers a powerful tool towards the minimization
of research effort wastes, as far as it can identify the lacks of
knowledge, thus the areas of interest where the current research
has to work on. The special features of this book are (a) the use
of state-of-the-art techniques for the classification of knowledge,
(b) the consideration of a realistic systemic world of engineering
approached phenomena, (c) the application of advanced mathematical
techniques for identifying, describing and testing the similarities
in the research results and conclusions, and (d) the experimental
investigation of relevant phenomena.
The subject of this book is to study the porous media and the
transport processes occur there. As a first step, the authors
discuss several techniques for artificial representation of porous.
Afterwards, they describe the single and multi phase flows in
simplistic and complex porous structures in terms of macroscopic
and microscopic equations as well as of their analytical and
numerical solutions. Furthermore, macroscopic quantities such as
permeability are introduced and reviewed. The book also discusses
with mass transport processes in the porous media which are further
strengthen by experimental validation and specific technological
applications. This book makes use of state-of-the-art techniques
for the modeling of transport processes in porous structures, and
considers of realistic sorption mechanisms. It the applies advanced
mathematical techniques for upscaling of the major quantities, and
presents the experimental investigation and application, namely,
experimental methods for the measurement of relevant transport
properties. The main benefit of the book is that it discusses all
the topics related to transport in porous media (including
state-of-the-art applications) and presents some of the most
important theoretical, numerical and experimental developments in
porous media domain, providing a self-contained major reference
that is appealing to both the scientists and the engineers. At the
same time, these topics encounter a variety of scientific and
engineering disciplines, such as chemical, civil, agricultural,
mechanical engineering. The book is divided in several chapters
that intend to be a resume of the current state of knowledge for
benefit of related professionals and scientists.
