Verification and Validation Methods for Challenging Multiphysics Problems

This volume contains twelve lectures delivered by scientist and technologists at a Seminarof a European project named PROMUVAL. The main objective of the Seminar has been to offer internationally recognized experts a forum to present state of the art lectures on advanced Verification & Validation methodologies in Multiphysics areas including experimental investigations, modellingand numerical simulation, all necessary in the understanding of complex multiphysic phenomena, environmental and coupled problems of fundamental, industrial and societal interest. The volume is subdivided in 12 chapters which are grouped around four main themes: Multidisciplinary problems in rotorcraft technology; Multidisciplinary simulation and validation; Computational Aeroacoustics; Virtual Integrated Design; Fluid-Structure interaction problems.
