DESCRIPTION:
An Instructor's Manual and CD are available to adopters.. Presenting an image-intensive approach to fluid dynamics through classic kinematic concepts, the book demonstrates the importance of flow visualization in a framework of modern experimental techniques and flow simulation. Output illustrations from CFD (computational fluid dynamics) programs illustrate the possibilities of flow behavior, enabling students to concentrate on ideas instead of mathematics. The book also provides the means to solve interesting problems early in the course by presenting case studies at the beginning of the text. Detailed photographs and diagrams of fluid motions and phenomena throughout the text help students to see and understand why equ

"Brand new product by Oxford Univ Press worth looking at! " according to Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR. The first phrase you read when opening the book is "This book is intended primarily for use in a one-quarter or one-semester introductory fluid mechanics course". And it hits the nail on the head. Shaughnessy1 tries to give a balanced introduction to all the tools used for solving FM problems today (analytical, empirical, experimental, computational tools) and succeeds so in the first 70%; the rest is too conc
