This monograph is devoted to the theory and approximation by finite volume methods of nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws in one or two space variables. It follows directly a previous publication on hyperbolic systems of conservation laws by the same authors. Since…
The book presents the modern state of the art in the mathematical theory of compressible Navier-Stokes equations, with particular emphasis on applications to aerodynamics. The topics covered include: modeling of compressible viscous flows; modern mathematical theory of nonhomoge…
"The book will be helpful not only as a textbook for an advanced course on relativistic kinetic theory but also as a reference for physicists, astrophysicists and applied mathematicians who are interested in the theory and applications of the relativistic Boltzmann equation."--J…

Numerical methods are indispensable tools in the analysis of complex fluid flows. This book focuses on computational techniques for high-speed gas flows, especially gas flows containing shocks and other steep gradients. The book decomposes complicated numerical methods into simp…
"The book is designed to better support and cover compressible flow material in gas turbine and aerodynamics courses. It begins with a brief review of thermodynamics and control volume fluid dynamics, then proceeds to cover isentropic flow, normal shock waves, shock tubes, obliq…
