Finite Elements in Fluids, Vol. 8: Lectures / Expanded Selected Papers Arising From The 7th Int'l Conference on Finite Element Methods in Flow Problems conducted at the University of Alabama in 1989

Deals with basic and advanced theories of finite elements and their applications to the solution of fluid dynamical problems in aerospace, mechanical, and civil engineering disciplines. Divided into four main parts, this book addresses a wide range of topics including adaptive methods in computational fluid dynamics, the streamline diffusion finite element method, algebraic grid generation, mixed finite element methods, Navier-Stokes equations, finite element methods for 3D incompressible viscous and turbulent flows, and analysis of reacting flows in combustion.
