The authors use proven learning tools to help students visualize many difficult-to-understand aspects of fluid mechanics. They present numerous phenomena that are often not discussed in other texts, such as entrance flows, the difference between wakes and separated regions, free-stream fluctuations and turbulence, and vorticity." Gain an understanding of fluid mechanics and the ability to analyze this important phenomena encountered by practicing engineers with this work. The authors use proven learning tools to help you visualise many difficult-to-understand aspects of fluid mechanics. The mathematics used in derivations are readily accessible to you as an undergraduate engineering student. The companion website includes mini-exams and solutions, as well as video tutorials to assist you in further mastering fluid mechanics as an emerging professional.
