Provides simplified models explaining flows in heterogeneous rocks, their physics and energy-production processes, for researchers, energy-industry professionals and graduate students.
Relativistic hydrodynamics is a very successful theoretical framework to describe the dynamics of matter from scales as small as those of colliding elementary particles, up to the largest scales in the universe. This book provides an up-to-date, lively, and approachable introduc…
