A comprehensive guide to numerical methods for simulating physical-chemical systems This book offers a systematic, highly accessible presentation of numerical methods used to simulate the behavior of physical-chemical systems. Unlike most books on the subject, it focuses on methodology rather than specific applications.

This text examines the axiomatic approach, a powerful, unified approach to mathematical and computational modeling in science and engineering. Readers will discover that this axiomatic approach enables them to both systematically construct effective models, and also apply these models to any macroscopic physical system.

This book looks at the mathematical-physical rationale behind the equations that are currently used to describe the flow of fluid and transport of solutes in porous media. It presents a comprehensive approach to the development of appropriate equations without prior knowledge of continuum mechanics, mixture theory, or similar areas of expertise.
