  • Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound

    by Michael Howe ...
    Music, calm speech, whispering leaves fluttering in a breeze are pleasant and desirable sounds. Noise, howling gales, explosions and screeching traffic are less so. A quantitative understanding of the sources of all such sounds can be obtained by careful analysis of the mechanical equations of motion. This is provided by Acoustics and Aerodynamic Sound, which serves as a short, one semester ... Read more

  • Colloids and the Depletion Interaction

    by Henk N.W. Lekkerkerker, Remco Tuinier ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    Colloids are submicron particles that are ubiquitous in nature (milk, clay, blood) and industrial products (paints, drilling fluids, food). In recent decades it has become clear that adding depletants such as polymers or small colloids to colloidal dispersions allows one to tune the interactions between the colloids and in this way control the stability, structure and rheological properties of ...

  • Principles of Continuum Mechanics

    Conservation and Balance Laws with Applications

    by J. N. Reddy ...
    Continuum mechanics deals with the stress, deformation, and mechanical behaviour of matter as a continuum rather than a collection of discrete particles. The subject is interdisciplinary in nature, and has gained increased attention in recent times primarily because of a need to understand a variety of phenomena at different spatial scales. The second edition of Principles of Continuum Mechanics ... Read more

  • Two-Fluid Model Stability, Simulation and Chaos

    by Martín López de Bertodano, William Fullmer, Alejandro Clausse, Victor H. Ransom ...
    Series series Engineering (R0)
    This book addresses the linear and nonlinear two-phase stability of the one-dimensional Two-Fluid Model (TFM) material waves and the numerical methods used to solve it. The TFM fluid dynamic stability is a problem that remains open since its inception more than forty years ago. The difficulty is formidable because it involves the combined challenges of two-phase topological structure and ... Read more

  • Advanced Computational Fluid and Aerodynamics

    by Paul G. Tucker ...
    Series Book 54 - Cambridge Aerospace Series
    The advent of supercomputers has brought computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to the forefront as a tool to analyze increasingly complex simulation scenarios in many fields. Computational aerodynamics problems are also increasingly moving towards being coupled, multi-physics and multi-scale with complex, moving geometries. The latter presents severe geometry handling and meshing challenges. ... Read more
