Hydrodynamics and Sound

Klappentext This book is ideal as a graduate textbook and reference for the advanced learner in fluid mechanics. Zusammenfassung This book is ideal as a graduate textbook and reference for the advanced learner in fluid mechanics. The first four chapters are concerned with incompressible flow of homogeneous fluids. Chapters five and six deal with dispersive waves and acoustics. Learning is supported by numerous examples! end-of-chapter exercises! and illustrations. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface; 1. Equations of motion; 2. Potential flow of an incompressible fluid; 3. Ideal flow in two dimensions; 4. Rotational incompressible flow; 5. Surface gravity waves; 6. Introduction to acoustics; Bibliography.
