In this text we delve deeply into the mathematical analysis of flows, but before beginning, it is reasonable to ask if it is necessary to make this significant mathematical effort.
The objective of this introductory text is to familiarise students with the basic elements of fluid mechanics so that they will be familiar with the jargon of the discipline and the expected results.
At the end of each chapter carefully designed problems are assigned as homework, for which selected fully worked-out solutions are provided. This book can be used for self-study, as well as in conjunction with a course in fluid mechanics.
Blood is non-Newtonian; the shear stress versus shear rate is described by the Casson relationship: 8 < : ffiffiffiτ p= ffiffiffiffiffiffiffiffi pffiffiffiffiτc+ r μdudr, for τ ≥ τc τ = 0 for τ < τc where τc is the critical shear ...
This book provides readers with an understanding of the theory, concepts and applications of fluid mechanics.
Introduction to Fluid Mechanics
This is an introductory fluid mechanics text, intended for the first Fluid Mechanics course required of all engineers. The goal of this book is to modernise the teaching of fluid...
Beginning with the simple and proceeding to the complex, the text introduces the principles of fluid mechanics in orderly steps.
