Klappentext This book provides a development of fluid flow theory and how computations are formulated and effected. Zusammenfassung In recent decades! numerical algorithms and computer power have advanced to the point where computer simulations of the equations of fluid flow have become routine. This book provides a development of fluid flow theory in concert with a perspective on how computations are formulated and effected. Inhaltsverzeichnis 1. Introduction to viscous flow; 2.
