This comprehensive textbook serves as an introductory guide to a diverse range of phenomena utilizing fluid mechanics. It begins by delving into fundamental concepts and conservation laws governing both neutral and charged fluids, laying the foundation for further exploration. The authors then apply and refine these principles to comprehend aerodynamics, the movement of microorganisms, waves in air and water, shock waves, hydrodynamic and hydromagnetic instabilities, stars and black holes, blood flow in humans, and superfluids.
The approach adopted is to examine a selection of captivating topics within fluid mechanics while maintaining rigorous mathematical precision. The book strikes a balance between qualitative explanations and formal treatment, presenting the material in a concise and organized manner. A particular emphasis is placed on turbulence, a complex and challenging subject, and the book concludes with a discussion on turbulence in quantum fluids. Throughout the textbook, numerous illustrative examples, drawn primarily from real-life scenarios, are included to enhance understanding and application of the concepts. Additionally, a series of exercises are provided to reinforce the learning process.
Designed for a one-semester course, this textbook caters to students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees in physics or engineering who have an interest in researching various fields such as aeronautics, meteorology, cosmology, biomechanics, and mathematical physics. It is recommended that students possess a foundational understanding of mathematical methods to fully grasp the topics presented herein.
