Computational Fluid Dynamics

By T.K. Bose

This text details recent applications of computational methods in fluid dynamics. It discusses basic principles as well as exposure to a cross-section of derivations of several equations, such as the body-fitted coordinate system, the approximate factorization scheme, finite element methods and higher order panel methods. Also provided is coverage of many other topics of current interest, including relaxation techniques, time dependent methods and solutions of gasdynamic problems, and particle-in-cell methods. A review of numerical methods is offered in an appendix, and an extensive list of references which includes literature published after 1985 allows readers to pursue topics of special interest.
