Opis

This book describes an engineering approach based on interactive boundary-layer and stability-transition theories, both developed by the author, for calculating aerodynamic flows. This is the first time these powerful computational techniques have been published in book form.

From the reviews
"This reviewer found Engineering Approach to the Calculation of Aerodynamic Flows a valuable addition to his library and an excellent reference on the viscous computational aerodynamics, which this reviewer will recommend to his graduate students in aerospace engineering. Practicing engineers with an interest in aerodynamic performance prediction will also benefit fom this book." (Applied Mechanics Review, 2001)

"The theoretical aspects and the mathematical formulation of all problems is clear, accurate and carefully explained in the assumptions and approximations made (...) The physical explanation of the described phenomena is very clear and correctly placed to introduce the subjects (...) The explanations are illustrated with many simple and clear figures, which support both the mathematical treatment and the physical understanding (...) An experiment to ask some students to make use of the panel program has shown that is was rather simple to use the programs by course students." (European Journal of Mechanics B, 2001)
