Description for Introduction to Interactive Boundary Layer Theory
Hardback. Presents an account of the development of laminar boundary layer theory as a historical study. This book includes a description of the application of the ideas of triple deck theory to flow past a plate, to separation from a cylinder and to flow in channels. It is intended to provide a graduate level teaching resource. Series: Oxford Texts in Applied & Engineering Mathematics. Num Pages: 346 pages, numerous line figures. BIC Classification: PBKS; PBX; PDE; PHDF; TBJ; TGMF. Category: (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 241 x 161 x 23. Weight in Grams: 639.
One of the major achievements in fluid mechanics in the last quarter of the twentieth century has been the development of an asymptotic description of perturbations to boundary layers known generally as 'triple deck theory'. These developments have had a major impact on our understanding of laminar fluid flow, particularly laminar separation. It is also true that the theory rests on three quarters of a century of development of boundary layer theory which involves analysis, experimentation and computation. All these parts go together, and to understand the triple deck it is necessary to understand which problems the triple deck resolves ... Read more
