Fluid Mechanics - A Problem-Solving Approach

Fluid Mechanics: A Problem-Solving Approach presents problem-solving approaches that are used in fluid mechanics and provides a clear distinction between integral formulation and the different formulation of conservation law. The book is intended for senior undergraduate mechanical and civil engineering students.
