Fluid and Thermodynamics

Volume 1: Basic Fluid Mechanics

by Kolumban Hutter, Yongqi Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
This first volume discusses fluid mechanical concepts and their applications to ideal and viscous processes. It describes the fundamental hydrostatics and hydrodynamics, and includes an almanac of flow problems for ideal fluids. The book presents numerous exact solutions of flows in simple configurations, each of which is constructed and graphically supported. It addresses ideal, potential, ... Read more

Volume 2: Advanced Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamic Fundamentals

by Kolumban Hutter, Yongqi Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
In this book fluid mechanics and thermodynamics (F&T) are approached as interwoven, not disjoint fields. The book starts by analyzing the creeping motion around spheres at rest: Stokes flows, the Oseen correction and the Lagerstrom-Kaplun expansion theories are presented, as is the homotopy analysis. 3D creeping flows and rapid granular avalanches are treated in the context of the shallow flow ...

Volume 2: Lakes as Oscillators

by Kolumban Hutter, Yongqi Wang, Irina P. Chubarenko ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
The overwhelming focus of this 2nd volume of “Physics of Lakes” is adequately expressed by its subtitle “Lakes as Oscillators”. It deals with barotropic and baroclinic waves in homogeneous and stratified lakes on the rotating Earth and comprises 12 chapters, starting with rotating shallow-water waves, demonstrating their classification into gravity and Rossby waves for homogeneous and stratified ...

Volume 3: Methods of Understanding Lakes as Components of the Geophysical Environment

by Kolumban Hutter, Irina P. Chubarenko, Yongqi Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
The ongoing thread in this volume of Physics of Lakes is the presentation of different methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes with a view to understanding lakes as components of the geophysical environment. It is divided into three parts. Part I is devoted to numerical modeling techniques and demonstrates that (i) wind-induced currents in depth-integrated models can only ... Read more

by Kolumban Hutter, Irina P. Chubarenko, Yongqi Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
This first volume in the treatise on the Physics of Lakes deals with the formulation of the mathematical and physical background. A large number of lakes on Earth are described, presenting their morphology as well as the causes of their response to the driving environment. Because the physics of lakes cannot be described without the language used in mathematics, these subjects are introduced first ... Read more
