Introduction to Fluid Mechanics
Elsevier Science 1998; US$ 113.95Fluid mechanics is often seen as the most difficult core subject encountered by engineering students. The problem stems from the necessity to visualise complex flow patterns and fluid behaviour modelled by high level mathematics. This text overcomes this difficulty by introducing the concepts through everyday examples, before moving on to the more... more...
Analysis and Simulation of Fluid Dynamics
Springer 2007; US$ 99.99Presents a collection of the contributions of a Conference held in June 2005 at the laboratoire Paul Painleve (UMR CNRS 8524) in Lille, France. The aim of this conference was to review the topics and trends in fluid dynamics, with the objective to foster exchanges of various viewpoints on the addressed questions. more...
The Genesis of Fluid Mechanics, 1640-1780
Springer 2008; US$ 179.99Fluid Mechanics, as a scientific discipline in a modern sense, was established between the last third of the 17th century and the first half of the 18th one. This book analyses its genesis, following its evolution along two basic lines of research, which have been named the a oeproblem of resistancea and the a oeproblem of dischargea . This approach... more...
Topology-Based Methods in Visualization II
Springer 2009; US$ 99.99Visualization research aims at providing insight into large, complicated data. Topological methods stand out by their solid mathematical ground guiding the algorithmic analysis and its presentation among the various visualization techniques. This book contains papers from the second workshop on 'Topology-Based Methods in Visualization'. more...

Springer 2010; US$ 159.00The scientific interests of Professor A.V. Kazhikhov were fundamentally devoted to Mathematical Fluid Mechanics, where he achieved outstanding results that had, and still have, a significant influence on this field.This volume, dedicated to the memory of A.V. Kazhikhov, presents the latest contributions from renowned world specialists in a number of... more...
Advances in Fluid Mechanics VI
WIT Press 2006; US$ 498.00Originally presented at the Sixth International Conference on Advances in Fluid Mechanics, this book contains work at the cutting edge of fluid mechanics. The basic formulations of fluid mechanics and their computer modelling are discussed, as well as the relationship between experimental and analytical results. This book should be a seminal text to... more...
Mechanics of Real Fluids
WIT Press 2011; US$ 194.00Fluid mechanics is one of the most major areas of successful applications of mathematics. It can be considered as one of branches of applied mathematics. Although fluid motion is concerned in both gas or liquids, as both of them are fluids, this book mainly deals with the motion of liquids in general, and water in particular. The theory of fluid mechanics... more...

Transport and Mixing in Laminar Flows
Wiley 2012; US$ 143.00This book provides readers from academia and industry with an up-to-date overview of important advances in the field, dealing with such fundamental fluid mechanics problems as nonlinear transport phenomena and optimal control of mixing at the micro- and nanoscale. The editors provide both in-depth knowledge of the topic as well as vast experience... more...
Solitary Waves in Fluid Media
Bentham Science Publishers 2010; US$ 99.00Since the first description by John Scott Russel in 1834, the solitary wave phenomenon has attracted considerable interests from scientists. The most interesting discovery since then has been the ability to integrate most of the nonlinear wave equations which govern solitary waves, from the Korteweg-de Vries equation to the nonlinear Schrödinger... more...
