Fluid Dynamics

A course for fluid dynamics and aviation, starting from the basics for both, the natural laws which govern them.

Editors: Klapp, J., Sigalotti, L.D.G., Medina, A., López, A., Ruiz-Chavarría, G. (Eds.)
Includes introductory lectures that keep mathematics to a minimum and focus on various topics related to fluid dynamics from both experimental and theoretical points of view
Presents recent advances in experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics in concise papers
Features material suitable for both undergraduate and graduate students

Fluid Dynamics: Theory, Computation, and Numerical Simulation is the only available book that extends the classical field of fluid dynamics into the realm of scientific computing in a way that is both comprehensive and accessible to the beginner.

Fluid Dynamics: Theory, Computation, and Numerical Simulation is the only available book that extends the classical field of fluid dynamics into the realm of scientific computing in a way that is both comprehensive and accessible to the beginner. The theory of fluid dynamics, and the implementation of solution procedures into numerical algorithms, are discussed hand-in-hand and with reference to computer programming. This book is an accessible introduction to theoretical and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), written from a modern perspective that unifies theory and numerical practice.
