The classic textbook on fluid mechanics is revised and updated by Dr.
David Dowling to better illustrate this important subject for modern
students. With topics and concepts presented in a clear and accessible
way, Fluid Mechanics guides students from the fundamentals to the
analysis and application of fluid mechanics, including compressible
flow and such diverse applications as aerodynamics and geophysical
fluid mechanics. Its broad and deep coverage is ideal for both a first
or second course in fluid dynamics at the graduate or advanced
undergraduate level, and is well-suited to the needs of modern
scientists, engineers, mathematicians, and others seeking fluid
mechanics knowledge.NEW TO THE SIXTH EDITION Over 100 new examples
designed to illustrate the application of the various concepts and
equations featured in the text.A completely new chapter on
computational fluid dynamics (CFD) authored by Prof. Gretar Tryggvason
of the University of Notre Dame. This new CFD chapter includes sample
MatlabTM codes and 20 exercises. New material on elementary kinetic
theory, non-Newtonian constitutive relationships, internal and
external rough-wall turbulent flows, Reynolds-stress closure models,
acoustic source terms, and unsteady one-dimensional gas dynamics.Plus
110 new exercises and nearly 100 new figures.
