Key Words
Dynamics of continuum, discontinuity, continuum, dynamics of discrete system, transport phenomena,
multiphase flow

Course Objectives
Learn about the concept and theory behind fluid motion, motion of granular body, and multiphase flow
including granular body as disperse phase. Aim to understand equations describing transport phenomena andfoundation of numerical solution and to learn how to handle mechanical interaction between continuum anddiscontinuity. Also learn how to calculate discrete system dynamics typified by the discrete element method(DEM).

Course Goals
Aim to fully understand the concepts of continuum and discontinuity and to learn formulation and solution of
those motions.

Course Schedule
