DESCRIPTION:
Nice monograph, bad editorial work The book gathers many previously scattered result and is written at an level and with the choice of subjects that suit me very well (I do research in astrophysics).Flow decomposition methods are presented nicely and succinctly. The range of topics is commendable. References are given in appropriate quantity. I would definitely rate the book as Nice monograph, bad editorial work Pawel Artymowicz The book gathers many previously scattered result and is written at an level and with the choice of subjects that suit me very well (I do research in astrophysics).Flow decomposition methods are presented nicely and succinctly.

… The book is recommended to graduate students, engineers and numerical analysts working in the field of mechanics, aerospace, and computational fluid mechanics." (Mikhail Konstantinov, Zeitschrift für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik, Vol. 87 (5), 2007). From the reviews: "The overall organization and writing style of the book is good and the authors make their best effort to present the material in a systematic and coherent fashion, so that readers can grasp the concepts quickly.

This is followed by vortex dynamics dealing with the motion, interaction, stability, and breakdown of various vortices. To make the book self-contained, some mathematical background is briefly presented in the main text, but major prerequisites are systematically given in appendices.. Typical vortex structures are analyzed in laminar, translational, and turbulent flows, including stratified and rotational fluids. It starts with a brief review of fundamentals of fluid dynamics, with an innovative emphasis on the intrinsic orthogonal decomposition of fluid dynamics process. In another chapter vortical flow management is presented, such as diagnostics and
