in engineered and natural systems. In general, these challenging problems are fundamentally
coupled processes that involve dynamically evolving fluid flow, mass transport, heat transfer,
deformationofsolids,andchemicalandbiologicalreactions.
Thisseriesprovidesanunderstandingofcomplicatedcoupledphenomenaandprocesses, its
forecasting, and approaches in problem solving for a diverse group of applications, including

andmitigationofhumaninducedphenomena(climatechange),andoptimizationofengineering
systems(e.g.constructiondesign,manufacturingprocesses).
