Research problems linked to this topic
- The handling of dispersed solids may lead to undesirable release of particles.
 - The subcritical growth of intra-particle cracks and their consequent rupture are often cited among the processes responsible for creep in granular solids.
 - Much research regarding handling and storage characteristics of bulk solids has been conducted over the years.
 - Modeling the complex, coupled fluid flow, heat transfer and solidification phenomena taking place in metal casting is a challenging task.
 - The melting curve (melting temperature versus pressure) of iron is fundamental to an understanding of the physics of the Earth's core.
 - The effect of ultrasonic vibration on the microstructure, elimination of casting defects and distribution of alloyed elements at macro-scale during solidification of 35CrMo steel has been investigated.
 - Numerical models of solidification including a mushy zone are notoriously inefficient; most of them are based on formulations that require the coupled solution to the velocity components in the momentum equation greatly restricting the range of applicability of the models.
