The past few decades have brought significant advances in the computational methods and in the experimental techniques used to study transport phenomena in materials processing operations‎.‎ However‎,‎ the advances have been made independently and with competition between the two approaches‎.‎ Mathematical models are easier and less costly to implement‎,‎ but experiments are essential for verifying theoretical models‎.‎ In Mathematical and Physical Modeling of Materials Processing Operations‎,‎ the authors bridge the gap between mathematical modelers and experimentalists‎.‎ They combine mathematical and physical modeling principles for materials processing operations simulation and use numerous examples to compare theoretical and experimental results‎.‎ The modeling of transport processes is multi‎-disciplinary‎,‎ involving concepts and principles not all of which can be associated with just one field of study‎.‎ Therefore‎,‎ the authors have taken care to ensure that the text is self‎-sustaining through the variety and bre‎.‎‎.‎‎.‎
