The rapid advance of computer technology has enabled applied mathematicians, engineers and scientists to make significant progress in the solution of previously intractable problems. Indeed, it is now possible to assess the validity of formerly unproven concepts related to complex situations. This trend is particularly well-grounded in heat and fluid flow problems where there is an increasing need to test previously advocated fundamental concepts and to develop new numerical methods. This prestigious journal keeps readers up to date with the latest developments in computer-based predictive techniques, many of which are now considered accurate enough to be incorporated into design and manufacturing processes.
