This book starts by presenting a detailed summary of the most general equations of fluid mechanics and then shows how various approximations are made to solve problems of engineering interest. This approach shows exactly where the given approximation fits within the general framework. This is very different than the approach in many other books where the various approximations (such as ideal fluid flow, compressible gas dynamics, Stokes flow, etc.) are presented right from the outset in different chapters, so that their connection to the most general framework is not apparent.

Produktbeschreibung
This book starts by presenting a detailed summary of the most general equations of fluid mechanics and then shows how various approximations are made to solve problems of engineering interest. This approach shows exactly where the given approximation fits within the general framework. This is very different than the approach in many other books where the various approximations (such as ideal fluid flow, compressible gas dynamics, Stokes flow, etc.) are presented right from the outset in different chapters, so that their connection to the most general framework is not apparent. Several new theoretical results (some based on technical papers) have been added, and keeping in view the emphasis on applications, several new examples have also been added to the first chapter. Several appendices list hundreds of results related to special functions which can be of interest to applied mathematicians and academicians interested in exact solutions.
Autorenporträt
C. S. Jog obtained his Ph.D. from the Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Department at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1994. After holding a postdoctoral position at Denmark Technical University, he served as an assistant professor at the Indian Institute of Technology (Guwahati) for a period of one year. He has been on the faculty of the Mechanical Engineering Department at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, since 1997. His main research interests are in the areas of continuum mechanics, and in developing ¿nite-element-based methodologies for structures, ¿uids and their interaction.
