  • Cellular Flows

    Topological Metamorphoses in Fluid Mechanics

    by Vladimir Shtern ...
    A cell, whose spatial extent is small compared with a surrounding flow, can develop inside a vortex. Such cells, often referred to as vortex breakdown bubbles, provide stable and clean flame in combustion chambers; they also reduce the lift force of delta wings. This book analyzes cells in slow and fast, one- and two-fluid flows and describes the mechanisms of cell generation: (a) minimal energy ... Read more

  • Counterflows

    Paradoxical Fluid Mechanics Phenomena

    by Vladimir Shtern ...
    This book discusses the physical mechanisms that drive counterflows, examining how they emerge, develop, become double and multiple counterflows and comprise both global and local circulations. Counterflows play an important role in nature and technology. A natural example is the Gulf Stream and the opposite flow in the ocean depths. Technological applications include hydrocyclones, vortex tubes ... Read more

  • Water Waves and Ship Hydrodynamics

    An Introduction

    by A.J. Hermans ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    In this book an introduction is given to aspects of water waves that play a role in ship hydrodynamics and offshore engineering. At first the equations and linearized boundary conditions are derived describing the non-viscous free surface water waves, with special attention to the combination of steady and non-steady flow fields. Then some simple kinds of free wave solutions are derived, such as ... Read more
