Verification and Validation of <i>openInjMoldSim</i>, an Open-Source Solver to Model the Filling Stage of Thermoplastic Injection Molding

In the present study, the simulation of the three-dimensional (3D) non-isothermal, non-Newtonian fluid flow of polymer melts is investigated. In particular, the filling stage of thermoplastic injection molding is numerically studied with a solver implemented in the open-source computational library...
