Innovative food processing technologies : advances in multiphysics simulation

"Multiphysics simulation of emerging food processing technologies discusses how multiphysics modeling - i.e., the simulation of the entire process comprising the actual equipment, varying process conditions and the physical properties of the food to be treated - can be applied in the developmen...
