Laoulache, Choice, Vol. Upper-division undergraduate through professional collections." (R. N. 46 (9), May, 2009)“Based on the German edition from year 2006, the translated English edition was presented in 2008. Summing Up: Highly recommended. It contains 21 chapters. It provides thorough analytical coverage of a wide range of fluid mechanics topics and offers brief introductions to numerical and experimental topics. … the volume will be valuable for graduate students pursuing fluid mechanics research. … The book gives a comprehensive survey of the large field of fluid dynamics. It is very useful for students in engineering and
This text is specifically written to meet the needs of students in engineering and science. Analytical treatments are based on the Navier-Stokes equations. This book’s logical organization begins with an introductory chapter summarizing the history of fluid mechanics and then moves on to the essential mathematics and physics needed to understand and work in fluid mechanics. The book also fully addresses the numerical and experimental methods applied to flows. Fluid mechanics embraces engineering, science, and medicine. Overall, readers get a sound introduction to fluid mechanics.
