Multiphysics Simulations in Automotive and Aerospace Applications provides the fundamentals and latest developments on numerical methods for solving multiphysics problems, including fluid-solid interaction, fluid-structure‐thermal coupling, electromagnetic-fluid-solid coupling, vibro and aeroacoustics. Chapters describe the different algorithms and numerical methods used for solving coupled problems using implicit or explicit coupling problems from industrial or academic applications. Given the book’s comprehensive coverage, automotive and aerospace engineers, designers, graduate students and researchers involved in the simulation of practical coupling problems will find the book useful in its approach.
