The
Handbook of Fluid Dynamics provides professionals in the field of fluid
dynamics with a comprehensive guide and resource.
The book balances three traditional
areas of fluid mechanics - theoretical, computational, and experimental - and
expounds on basic science and engineering techniques.
Each chapter introduces a topic,
discusses the primary issues related to this subject, outlines approaches taken
by experts, and supplies references for further information. |
