Synopsis
Concise and focused-these are the two guiding principles of Young, Munson, and Okiishi's Third Edition of A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics.
The authors clearly present basic analysis techniques and address practical concerns and applications, such as pipe flow, open-channel flow, flow measurement, and drag and lift. Homework problems in every chapter-including open-ended problems, problems based on the CD-ROM videos, laboratory problems, and computer problems-emphasize the practical application of principles. More than 100 worked examples provide detailed solutions to a variety of problems.
The Third Edition offers several new features and enhancements, including:
- A variety of new simple figures in the margins that will help you visualize the concepts described in the text.
- Chapter Summary and Study Guide sections at the end of each chapter that will help you assess your understanding of the material.
- Simplified presentation of the Reynolds transport theorem.
- New homework problems added to every chapter.
- Highlighted key works in each chapter.
- 75 short video segments that illustrate various aspects of fluid mechanics
- 30 extended laboratory-type problems
- Actual experimental data for simple experiments in an Excel format
- 168 review problems.

From the Publisher
This compact, contemporary, student-friendly book consists of examples and text involving everyday situations to reinforce the concept that fluid mechanics is an important part of our world as well as enabling students to master problem solving skills. Comprised of 10 chapters, the book contains more than enough material for a comprehensive one-semester course. Nearly one hundred examples are presented that provide detailed solutions to a variety of problems. Also, a generous set of homework problems in each chapter stresses the practical application of principles. In addition, several open-ended problems that do not provide all the information required to solve the problem are included in most chapters. Another feature is the inclusion of extended, laboratory-type problems in most chapters.
