Analytical Fluid Dynamics

Authors: Regev, Oded, Umurhan, Orkan M., Yecko, Philip A.
Contains recent developments in fluid dynamics and presents references for further analysis
Provides a number of exercises relevant to astrophysics so as to enhance the students knowledge on the subject
Includes information on the increasingly modern practice of simulating astrophysical flows on a computer

This book grew out of the need to provide students with a solid introduction to modern fluid dynamics. It offers a broad grounding in the underlying principles and techniques used, with some emphasis on applications in astrophysics and planetary science.

Although there are many texts and monographs on fluid dynamics, I do not know of any which is as comprehensive as the present book. It surveys nearly the entire field of classical fluid dynamics in an advanced, compact, and clear manner, and discusses the various conceptual and analytical models of fluid flow.
