Generalized Riemann Problems in Computational Fluid Dynamicsby Matania Ben-Artzi; Joseph Falcovitz; P. G. Ciarlet; A. Iserles; R. V. Kohn; M. H. Wright
Cambridge University Press 2003; US$ 36.00The Generalized Riemann Problem (GRP) algorithm comprises common schemes of numerical simulation of compressible, inviscid time-dependent flow. This monograph, including examples illustrating the algorithm's applications, presents the GRP methodology beginning with its underlying mathematical principles. The book is accessible to researchers and graduate students of applied mathematics, science and engineering. more...
Geometrical Theory Of Dynamical Systems And Fluid Flowsby Tsutomu Kambe
World Scientific 2004; US$ 88.40This is an introductory textbook on the geometrical theory of dynamical systems, fluid flows, and certain integrable systems. The subjects are interdisciplinary and extend from mathematics, mechanics and physics to mechanical engineering, and the approach is very fundamental. more...
Spectral/hp Element Methods for CFDby George Em Karniadakis; Spencer J. Sherwin
Oxford University Press 1999; US$ 64.50Traditionally spectral methods in fluid dynamics were used in direct and large eddy simulations of turbulent flow in simply connected computational domains. The methods are now being applied to more complex geometries, and the spectral/hp element method, which incorporates both multi-domain spectral methods and high-order finite element methods, has been particularly successful. This book provides a comprehensive introduction to these methods. Written by leaders in the field, the book begins with a full explanation of fundamental concepts and implementation issues. It then illustrates how these methods can be applied to advection-diffusion and to incompressible and compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Drawing on both published and unpublished... more...

Nonlinear Dynamics of Rotating Shallow Waterby Vladimir Zeitlin
Elsevier 2007; US$ 210.00The rotating shallow water (RSW) model is of wide use as a conceptual tool in geophysical fluid dynamics (GFD), because, in spite of its simplicity, it contains all essential ingredients of atmosphere and ocean dynamics at the synoptic scale, especially in its two- (or multi-) layer version. The book describes recent advances in understanding (in the framework of RSW and related models) of some fundamental GFD problems, such as existence of the slow manifold, dynamical splitting of fast (inertia-gravity waves) and slow (vortices, Rossby waves) motions, nonlinear geostrophic adjustment and wave emission, the role of essentially nonlinear wave phenomena. The specificity of the book is that analytical, numerical, and experimental approaches... more...
