Welcome to MTC-1: MULTIPHYSICS MODELLING, a course offered by ITMATI in collaboration with the University of a Coruña and University of Santiago de Compostela.
Mathematical models describe real world phenomena using the language of mathematics. Multiphysics models deal with multiple simultaneous physical phenomena, which include, but are not limited to, coupling among thermo-mechanical, acoustic or fluid problems. Knowledge obtained through these models can be applied in many industrial fields and help us in the decision making process.
MTC-1: MULTIPHYSICS MODELLING will focus on the statement and analysis of the main mathematical models, such as thermo-mechanical, fluid-structure interaction and acoustics models, which will be deduced from the principles of the continuum mechanics, and the coupling phenomena between them.

Class Shedule:
First week: 9:00-14:00
Second week: 9:00-14:00
Course Structure: The training course is divided into three main modules.
The First Module, Continuum Thermomechanics, is focused on the study of some mathematical models in solid mechanics, referred to static and dynamic problems. Elastic, isotropic and anisotropic materials, as well as the thermal effects will be considered. Simplifications due to the geometry of the piece, the volume forces, the boundary conditions, or the existence of symmetries will be also introduced. In addition, an introduction to more general behaviour laws, and to the formulation of non-linear boundary conditions will also be considered. The numerical simulation will be performed using COMSOL Multiphysics software package.
Teaching hours/lecture: 3h +13.5 h
The second module provides a presentation of the main models in fluid mechanics, including those regarding coupling with structures. After a presentation of a general framework and the discussion of some relevant non-dimensional numbers, the main limit models (for newtonian fluids) are derived. Some of these models will then be discussed. In particular, the module will cover the study of potential flows, laminar isothermal flows, turbulent isothermal flows, heat transfer problems and fluid-structure models. Some of these models will be solved using a CFD software.
Teaching hours/lecture: 10 h
The third module is focused on the derivation and the analysis of mathematical models of acoustic and structural vibrations of elastic solids and porous media. Coupling problems involving fluid-structure interaction and damping materials will also be addressed.
Teaching hours/lecture: 13.5 h
This course allows students to take only one module or part of the modules. Access preference will be given to those students who take the full course. Those students interested in taking part of the modules, after the registration, should send an e-mail to: itmati@itmati.com
