Synopsis
The classic textbook on fluid mechanics is revised and updated by Dr. David Dowling to better illustrate this important subject for modern students. With topics and concepts presented in a clear and accessible way, Fluid Mechanics guides students from the fundamentals to the analysis and application of fluid mechanics, including compressible flow and such diverse applications as aerodynamics and geophysical fluid mechanics. Its broad and deep coverage is ideal for both a first or second course in fluid dynamics at the graduate or advanced undergraduate level, and is well suited to the needs of modern scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and others seeking fluid mechanics knowledge.
- Over 100 new examples designed to illustrate the application of the various concepts and equations featured in the text
- A completely new chapter on computational fluid dynamics (CFD) authored by Prof. Gretar Tryggvason of the University of Notre Dame. This new CFD chapter includes sample MatlabTM codes and 20 exercises
- New material on elementary kinetic theory, non Newtonian constitutive relationships, internal and external rough wall turbulent flows, Reynolds stress closure models, acoustic source terms, and unsteady one dimensional gas dynamics
- Plus 110 new exercises and nearly 100 new figures
