Contents:
Introduction to kinematics -- More on kinematics -- Flow computation based on kinematics -- Forces and stresses -- Hydrostatics -- Equation of motion and vorticity transport -- Channel, tube, and film flow -- Finite-difference methods -- Low Reynolds number flow -- High Reynolds number flow -- Vortex motion -- Aerodynamics.
Review: "Fluid Dynamics: Theory, Computation, and Numerical Simulation is the only available book that extends the classical field of fluid dynamics into the realm of scientific computing in a way that is both comprehensive and accessible to the beginner. The theory of fluid dynamics, and the implementation of solution procedures into numerical algorithms, are discussed hand-in-hand and with reference to computer programming. This book is an accessible introduction to theoretical and computational fluid dynamics (CFD), written from a modern perspective that unifies theory and numerical practice."--Jacket.
