Preface

This special issue of PARTICUOLOGY is focused on the advanced topics of multiphase flow dynamics and chemical kinetics in particulate systems. The papers included represent not only the fundamental aspects of the basic parametric effects and mechanisms of such systems but also their applied nature involving such transport and reactive units as fluidized beds. risers, and downers.     

Preface

<正>Micromechanics aims mainly at establishing the quantitative relation between the macroscopic mechanical behavior and the microstructure of heterogeneous materials.It provides an efficient tool for understanding the deformations and strength of materials,and for the design of new materials as well.The basic idea of micromechanics dates back to some pioneer works of continuum mechanics,in which a matter with

<正>The energy shortage and environment deterioration are fundamental challenges for humanity in this century. Therefore, creating the next generation of highly efficient energy production and storage technologies is becoming crucially important. Among the sustainable energy options, fuel cells
