Review: Several modern applications, especially in microtechnology, involve the simulation of a flowing particulate medium with near-field interaction between charged particles as well as momentum exchange through mechanical contact. In order to characterize the flows, models and computational techniques are needed simultaneously to simulate the dynamics of multiparticulate systems involving near-field interaction and contact. This book provides basic models and numerical solution strategies for the direct simulation of flowing particulate media. These can be achieved on relatively standard desktop or laptop computers. The book can be viewed as a research monograph, suitable for first year graduate course in applied sciences, engineering and applied mathematics with an interest in the computational analysis of complex particulate flows.
