Modeling and simulation of nanomaterials in fluids: nanoparticle self-assembly

摘要: Abstract Nanoparticle self-assembly is intrinsically dependent on how the underlying forces drive population-level effects such as aggregation and fragmentation. Accordingly, in this chapter, we review modeling simulation of population balance equation models nanoparticles fluids from a mathematical computational perspective. Specific analytical results discretization techniques are discussed. We also provide an introduction to statistical model selection, which has recently proven useful researchers identifying appropriate nanofluid viscosity models.
