Description for Fluid Dynamics: Theory, Computation, and Numerical Simulation
Hardback. This is the first book that extends the classical field of fluid dynamics into the realm of scientific computing. It is both comprehensive and accessible to the beginner. The book is supplemented by a free web-based software library, FDLIB, and MatLab. Num Pages: 920 pages, 85 black & white illustrations, 148 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHDF; PHU; TBJ; TGMF; UM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 189 x 264 x 55. Weight in Grams: 1850.
This book provides an accessible introduction to the basic theory of fluid mechanics and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) from a modern perspective that unifies theory and numerical computation. Methods of scientific computing are introduced alongside with theoretical analysis and MATLAB (R) codes are presented and discussed for a broad range of topics: from interfacial shapes in hydrostatics, to vortex dynamics, to viscous flow, to turbulent flow, to panel methods for flow past airfoils. The third edition includes new topics, additional examples, solved and unsolved problems, and revised images. It adds more computational algorithms and MATLAB programs. It also incorporates ...
