Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why Study Fluid Mechanics? 1.1 Getting Motivated Flows are beautiful and complex. A swollen creek tumbles over rocks and through crevasses, swirling and foaming. A child plays with sticky tafy, stretching and reshaping the candy as she pulls it and twist it in various ways. Both the water and the tafy are fluids, and their motions are governed by the laws of nature. Our goal is to introduce the reader to the analysis of flows using the laws of physics and the language of mathematics. On mastering this material, the reader becomes able to harness flow to practical ends or to create beauty through fluid design. 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. After all, we can appreciate a flowing stream without understanding why it behaves as it does. We can also operate machines that rely on fluid behavior - drive a car for exam- 15 behavior? mathematical analysis. ple - without understanding the fluid dynamics of the engine, and we can even repair and maintain engines, piping networks, and other complex systems without having studied the mathematics of flow What is the purpose, then, of learning to mathematically describe fluid The answer to this question is quite practical: knowing the patterns fluids form and why they are formed, and knowing the stresses fluids generate and why they are generated is essential to designing and optimizing modern systems and devices. While the ancients designed wells and irrigation systems without calculations, we can avoid the wastefulness and tediousness of the trial-and-error process by using mathematical models"--

Download or read book Introductory Fluid Mechanics written by Joseph Katz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-31 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 same time, this book serves as a long-term reference text, contrary to the oversimplified approach occasionally used for such introductory courses. The second objective is to provide a comprehensive foundation for more advanced courses in fluid mechanics (within disciplines such as mechanical or aerospace engineering). In order to avoid confusing the students, the governing equations are introduced early, and the assumptions leading to the various models are clearly presented. This provides a logical hierarchy and explains the interconnectivity between the various models. Supporting examples demonstrate the principles and provide engineering analysis tools for many engineering calculations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, Sixth Edition, is an abridged version of a more comprehensive treatment found in Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics by Munson, Young, and Okiishi. Although this latter work continues to be received successfully by students and colleagues, it is a large volume containing much more material than can be covered in a typical one-semester undergraduate fluid mechanics course. A consideration of the numerous fluid mechanics texts that have been written during the past several decades reveals that there is a definite trend toward larger and larger books. This trend is understandable because the knowledge base in fluid mechanics has increased, along with the desire to include a broader scope of topics in an undergraduate course. Unfortunately, one of the dangers in this trend is that these large books can become intimidating to students who may have difficulty, in a beginning course, focusing on basic principles without getting lost in peripheral material. It is with this background in mind that the authors felt that a shorter but comprehensive text, covering the basic concepts and principles of fluid mechanics in a modern style, was needed. In this abridged version, there is still more than ample material for a one-semester undergraduate fluid mechanics course. We have made every effort to retain the principal features of the original book while presenting the essential material in a more concise and focused manner that will be helpful to the beginning student. This sixth edition comes with a new look-a standardized format intended to increase accessibility. Concerning the content, the authors strove to continue the distinguished tradition of this text. We have sought to augment it, drawing on our many years of teaching experience. Based on our experience and feedback from colleagues and students, we have made updates to this edition"--
