This text focuses on the fundamental nature of turbulence, bridging the gap between the elementary accounts of turbulence found in undergraduate texts and the more rigorous accounts given in advanced monographs.
Based on a taught by the author at the University of Cambridge, this comprehensive text on turbulence and fluid dynamics is aimed at year 4 undergraduates and graduates in applied mathematics, physics, and engineering, and provides an ideal reference for industry professionals a…
"A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 5th Edition is designed to cover the standard topics in a basic fluid mechanics course in a streamlined manner that meets the learning needs of today?s student better than the dense, encyclopedic manner of traditional texts. This approac…
This introductory text covers the basics of polymer chemistry and engineering, as well as structure-property relationships in plastics. It offers a survey of the basic chemistry of monomers and their conversion to the various polymers, the essentials of structure and performance…
Understanding Fluid Flow takes a fresh approach to introducing fluid dynamics, with physical reasoning and mathematical developments inextricably intertwined. The 'dry' fluid dynamics described by potential theory is set within the context of real viscous flows to give fundament…
