Description

In this book the authors give a coherent account of some of the ways in which mathematics can both give insight into viscous flows and suggest analogies and implications for other branches of applied mathematics.

List of contents










Preface; 1. Modelling a viscous fluid; 2. Boundary layers; 3. Slow viscous flow; 4. Thin films; 5. Spatial and temporal complexity; Appendix A: a brief introduction to asymptotics; Appendix B: uses of group theory; References; Index.

Summary

This book provides senior undergraduates who are already familiar with inviscid fluid dynamics with some of the basic facts about the modelling and analysis of viscous flows. This is ideal reading for students of applied mathematics who should then be able to delve further into the subject and be well placed to exploit mathematical ideas throughout the whole of applied science.
