Springer Nature Switzerland AG Flowing Matter
Book SynopsisThis open access book, published in the Soft and Biological Matter series, presents an introduction to selected research topics in the broad field of flowing matter, including the dynamics of fluids with a complex internal structure -from nematic fluids to soft glasses- as well as active matter and turbulent phenomena. Flowing matter is a subject at the crossroads between physics, mathematics, chemistry, engineering, biology and earth sciences, and relies on a multidisciplinary approach to describe the emergence of the macroscopic behaviours in a system from the coordinated dynamics of its microscopic constituents. Depending on the microscopic interactions, an assembly of molecules or of mesoscopic particles can flow like a simple Newtonian fluid, deform elastically like a solid or behave in a complex manner. When the internal constituents are active, as for biological entities, one generally observes complex large-scale collective motions. Phenomenology is further complicated by the invariable tendency of fluids to display chaos at the large scales or when stirred strongly enough. This volume presents several research topics that address these phenomena encompassing the traditional micro-, meso-, and macro-scales descriptions, and contributes to our understanding of the fundamentals of flowing matter. This book is the legacy of the COST Action MP1305 “Flowing Matter”.Table of Contents1 Basic concepts of Stokes flows with particles; C. I. Trombley and M. L.

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Tensor Analysis for Engineers and Physicists -
Book SynopsisThis book unies the common tensor analytical aspects in engineering and physics. Using tensor analysis enables the reader to understand complex physical phenomena from the basic principles in continuum mechanics including the turbulence, its correlations and modeling to the complex Einstein' tensor equation. The development of General Theory of Relativity and the introduction of spacetime geometry would not have been possible without the use of tensor analysis. This textbook is primarily aimed at students of mechanical, electrical, aerospace, civil and other engineering disciplines as well as of theoretical physics. It also covers the special needs of practicing professionals who perform CFD-simulation on a routine basis and would like to know more about the underlying physics of the commercial codes they use. Furthermore, it is suitable for self-study, provided that the reader has a sufficient knowledge of differential and integral calculus. Particular attention was paid to selecting the application examples. The transformation of Cartesian coordinate system into curvilinear one and the subsequent applications to conservation laws of continuum mechanics and the turbulence physics prepares the reader for fully understanding the Einstein tensor equations, which exhibits one of the most complex tensor equation in theoretical physics.Table of ContentsVectors and Tensors.- Transformation of Tensors.- Differential Operators in Continuum Mechanics.- Tensors and Kinematics.- Differential Balances in Continuum Mechanics.- Tensor Operations in Orthogonal Curvilinear.- Tensor Application, Navier-Stokes Equation.- Curves, Curvature, Surfaces, Geodesics.- Turbulent Flow, Modeling.- Special Theory of Relativity.- Tensors In General Theory of Relativity.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction
Book SynopsisComputational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction grew out of a von Karman Institute (VKI) Lecture Series by the same title ?rst presented in 1985 and repeated with modi?cations every year since that time. The objective, then and now, was to present the subject of computational ?uid dynamics (CFD) to an audience unfamiliar with all but the most basic numerical techniques and to do so in such a way that the practical application of CFD would become clear to everyone. A second edition appeared in 1995 with updates to all the chapters and when that printing came to an end, the publisher requested that the editor and authors consider the preparation of a third edition. Happily, the authors received the request with enthusiasm. The third edition has the goal of presenting additional updates and clari?cations while preserving the introductory nature of the material. The book is divided into three parts. John Anderson lays out the subject in Part I by ?rst describing the governing equations of ?uid dynamics, concentrating on their mathematical properties which contain the keys to the choice of the numerical approach. Methods of discretizing the equations are discussed and transformation techniques and grids are presented. Two examples of numerical methods close out this part of the book: source and vortex panel methods and the explicit method. Part II is devoted to four self-contained chapters on more advanced material. Roger Grundmann treats the boundary layer equations and methods of solution.Trade ReviewFrom the reviews of the third edition: "The objective of the book is to introduce a reader with limited prior knowledge of numerical techniques to the computation of fluid flows. The stated goal of the third edition is to present updates and clarifications while preserving the book’s introductory nature. The focus of the book is exclusively on aeronautical applications. … this book succeeds in achieving its goal of introducing readers to CFD."

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Non-Equilibrium Reacting Gas Flows: Kinetic Theory of Transport and Relaxation Processes
Book SynopsisIn the present monograph, we develop the kinetic theory of transport phenomena and relaxation processes in the flows of reacting gas mixtures and discuss its applications to strongly non-equilibrium conditions. The main attention is focused on the influence of non-equilibrium kinetics on gas dynamics and transport properties. Closed systems of fluid dynamic equations are derived from the kinetic equations in different approaches. We consider the most accurate approach taking into account the state-to-state kinetics in a flow, as well as simplified multi-temperature and one-temperature models based on quasi-stationary distributions. Within these approaches, we propose the algorithms for the calculation of the transport coefficients and rate coefficients of chemical reactions and energy exchanges in non-equilibrium flows; the developed techniques are based on the fundamental kinetic theory principles. The theory is applied to the modeling of non-equilibrium flows behind strong shock waves, in the boundary layer, and in nozzles. The comparison of the results obtained within the frame of different approaches is presented, the advantages of the new state-to-state kinetic model are discussed, and the limits of validity for simplified models are established. The book can be interesting for scientists and graduate students working on physical gas dynamics, aerothermodynamics, heat and mass transfer, non-equilibrium physical-chemical kinetics, and kinetic theory of gases.Table of ContentsKinetic Equations and Method of Small Parameter.- State-to-State Approach.- Multi-Temperature Models in Transport and Relaxation Theory.- One-Temperature Model for Chemically Non-equilibrium Gas Mixtures.- Algorithms for the Calculation of Transport Coefficients.- Reaction Rate Coefficients.- Non-equilibrium Kinetics and its Influence on the Transport Processes Behind Strong Shock Waves.- Heat Transfer and Diffusion in a Non-equilibrium Boundary Layer.- Non-equilibrium Kinetics and Its Influence on the Parameters of Nozzle Flows.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Three-Dimensional Attached Viscous Flow: Basic
Book SynopsisViscous flow is treated usually in the frame of boundary-layer theory and as two-dimensional flow. Books on boundary layers give at most the describing equations for three-dimensional boundary layers, and solutions often only for some special cases.This book provides basic principles and theoretical foundations regarding three-dimensional attached viscous flow. Emphasis is put on general three-dimensional attached viscous flows and not on three-dimensional boundary layers. This wider scope is necessary in view of the theoretical and practical problems to be mastered in practice. The topics are weak, strong, and global interaction, the locality principle, properties of three-dimensional viscous flow, thermal surface effects, characteristic properties, wall compatibility conditions, connections between inviscid and viscous flow, flow topology, quasi-one- and two-dimensional flows, laminar-turbulent transition and turbulence. Though the primary flight speed range is that of civil air transport vehicles, flows past other flying vehicles up to hypersonic speeds are also considered. Emphasis is put on general three-dimensional attached viscous flows and not on three-dimensional boundary layers, as this wider scope is necessary in view of the theoretical and practical problems that have to be overcome in practice.The specific topics covered include weak, strong, and global interaction; the locality principle; properties of three-dimensional viscous flows; thermal surface effects; characteristic properties; wall compatibility conditions; connections between inviscid and viscous flows; flow topology; quasi-one- and two-dimensional flows; laminar-turbulent transition; and turbulence. Detailed discussions of examples illustrate these topics and the relevant phenomena encountered in three-dimensional viscous flows. The full governing equations, reference-temperature relations for qualitative considerations and estimations of flow properties, and coordinates for fuselages and wings are also provided. Sample problems with solutions allow readers to test their understanding.Trade Review“The book would be an appropriate resource for every student of aerodynamics. … The book is well structured, and the bibliography which partially follows the chapters and sections is comprehensive. In order to test the reader’s understanding of the material, each chapter is accompanied by various problems and their solutions. A lot of graphics, including colored pictures, illustrate the book very well.” (Jürgen Socolowsky, Mathematical Reviews, April, 2017)Table of ContentsIntroduction.- Properties of Three-Dimensional Attached Viscous Flow.- Equations of Motion.- Boundary-Layer Equations for Three-Dimensional Flow.- Boundary-Layer Integral Parameters.- Viscous Flow and Inviscid Flow Connections and Interactions.- Topology of Skin-Friction Fields.- Quasi-One-Dimensional and Quasi-Two-Dimensional Flows.- Laminar-Turbulent Transition and Turbulence.- Illustrating Examples.- Solutions of the Problems.

Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Creep Mechanics
Book SynopsisThe simplest way to formulate the basic equations of continuum mech- ics and the constitutive or evolutional equations of various materials is to restrict ourselves to rectangular cartesian coordinates. However, solving p- ticular problems, for instance in Chapter 5, it may be preferable to work in terms of more suitable coordinate systems and their associated bases. The- fore, Chapter 2 is also concerned with the standard techniques of tensor an- ysis in general coordinate systems. Creep mechanics is a part of continuum mechanics, like elasticity or pl- ticity. Therefore, some basic equations of continuum mechanics are put - gether in Chapter 3. These equations can apply equally to all materials and they are insuf?cient to describe the mechanical behavior of any particular material. Thus, we need additional equations characterizing the individual material and its reaction under creep condition according to Chapter 4, which is subdivided into three parts: the primary, the secondary, and the tertiary creep behavior of isotropic and anisotropic materials. The creep behavior of a thick-walled tube subjected to internal pressure is discussed in Chapter 5. The tube is partly plastic and partly elastic at time zero. The investigation is based upon the usual assumptions of incompre- ibility and zero axial creep. The creep deformations are considered to be of such magnitude that the use of ?nite-strain theory is necessary. The inner and outer radius, the stress distributions as functions of time, and the cre- failure time are calculated.Table of ContentsTensor Notation.- Some Basic Equations of Continuum Mechanics.- Creep Behavior of Isotropic and Anisotropic Materials; Constitutive Equations.- Creep Behavior of Thick-Walled Tubes.- The Creep Potential Hypothesis in Comparison with the Tensor Function Theory.- Damage Mechanics.- Tensorial Generalization of Uniaxial Creep Laws to Multiaxial States of Stress.- Viscous Fluids.- Memory Fluids.- Viscoelastic Materials.- Viscoplastic Materials.- Creep and Damage Experiments.- Creep Curve.

MIT Press Ltd The Simple Science of Flight
Book SynopsisAn investigation into how machines and living creatures fly, and of the similarities between butterflies and Boeings, paper airplanes and plovers.From the smallest gnat to the largest aircraft, all things that fly obey the same aerodynamic principles. In The Simple Science of Flight, Henk Tennekes investigates just how machines and creatures fly: what size wings they need, how much energy is required for their journeys, how they cross deserts and oceans, how they take off, climb, and soar. Fascinated by the similarities between nature and technology, Tennekes offers an introduction to flight that teaches by association. Swans and Boeings differ in numerous ways, but they follow the same aerodynamic principles. Biological evolution and its technical counterpart exhibit exciting parallels. What makes some airplanes successful and others misfits? Why does the Boeing 747 endure but the Concorde now seem a fluke? Tennekes explains the science of flight through comparisons, examples, equations, and anecdotes. The new edition of this popular book has been thoroughly revised and much expanded. Highlights of the new material include a description of the incredible performance of bar-tailed godwits (7,000 miles nonstop from Alaska to New Zealand), an analysis of the convergence of modern jetliners (from both Boeing and Airbus), a discussion of the metabolization of energy featuring Lance Armstrong, a novel treatment of the aerodynamics of drag and trailing vortices, and an emphasis throughout on evolution, in nature and in engineering. Tennekes draws on new evidence on bird migration, new wind-tunnel studies, and data on new airliners. And his analysis of the relative efficiency of planes, trains, and automobiles is newly relevant. (On a cost-per-seat scale, a 747 is more efficient than a passenger car.)

Springer Nature Switzerland AG Astrophysics of the Interstellar Medium
Book SynopsisThis book is based on a series of lectures for an Astrophysics of the Interstellar Medium (ISM) master’s degree in Astrophysics and Cosmology at Padova University. From the cold molecular phase in which stars and planetary systems form, to the very hot coronal gas that surrounds galaxies and galaxy clusters, the ISM is everywhere. Studying its properties is vital for the exploration of virtually any field in astronomy and cosmology. These notes give the student a coherent and accurate mathematical and physical approach, with continuous references to the real ISM in galaxies. The book is divided into three parts. Part One introduces the equations of fluid dynamics for a system at rest and acoustic waves, and then explores the real ISM through the role of thermal conduction and viscosity, concluding with a discussion of shock waves and turbulence. In Part Two, the electromagnetic field is switched on and its role in modulating shock waves and contrasting gravity is studied. Part Three describes dust and its properties, followed by the main stellar sources of energy. The last two chapters respectively address the various components of the ISM and molecular clouds and star formation.Table of ContentsFundamental equations for ideal fluids.- Acoustic waves.- Real fluids.- The interstellar medium.- Shock waves.- Turbulence.- Electrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics.- Motion of a plasma in a magnetic field.- Magnetohydrodynamic waves.- Dust from the interstellar medium.- HII regions.- Stellar Winds.- Supernovae remnants.- The interstellar medium and its components.- Molecular Clouds.- Star formation.

Springer International Publishing AG The Finite Volume Method in Computational Fluid
Book SynopsisThis textbook explores both the theoretical foundation of the Finite Volume Method (FVM) and its applications in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Readers will discover a thorough explanation of the FVM numerics and algorithms used for the simulation of incompressible and compressible fluid flows, along with a detailed examination of the components needed for the development of a collocated unstructured pressure-based CFD solver. Two particular CFD codes are explored. The first is uFVM, a three-dimensional unstructured pressure-based finite volume academic CFD code, implemented within Matlab. The second is OpenFOAM®, an open source framework used in the development of a range of CFD programs for the simulation of industrial scale flow problems.With over 220 figures, numerous examples and more than one hundred exercise on FVM numerics, programming, and applications, this textbook is suitable for use in an introductory course on the FVM, in an advanced course on numerics, and as a reference for CFD programmers and researchers. Trade Review“Directed towards future practitioners such as engineers the authors first provide an introduction to fluid dynamics presupposing but a modicum of mathematical and physical knowledge. … . A number of exercises plus special chapters on modelling incompressible and compressible flow make the book very useful for its purpose.” (H. Muthsam, Monatshefte für Mathematik, Vol. 187 (1), September, 2018)“The book is very attractive, carefully written and easy to read by those interested in learning about finite volume methods for fluid dynamics. The authors have made an important effort to bridge the gap between classroom material and actual model development questions. The text is well illustrated by means of quality figures helping to understand the described concepts. Furthermore, the book contains pieces of academic codes in MATLAB … . It is certainly a useful, practical and valuable book.” (Pilar Garcia-Navarro, Mathematical Reviews, May, 2016)Table of ContentsFoundation1 Introduction2 Review of Vector Calculus3 Mathematical Description of Physical Phenomena4 The Discretization Process5 The Finite Volume Method6 The Finite Volume Mesh7 The Finite Volume Mesh in OpenFOAM® and uFVMDiscretization8 Spatial Discretization: The Diffusion Term9 Gradient Computation10 Solving the System of Algebraic Equations11 Discretization of the Convection Term12 High Resolution Schemes13 Temporal Discretization: The Transient Term14 Discretization of the Source Term, Relaxation, and Other DetailsAlgorithms15 Fluid Flow Computation: Incompressible Flows16 Fluid Flow Computation: Compressible FlowsApplications17 Turbulence Modeling18 Boundary Conditions in OpenFOAM® and uFVM19 An OpenFOAM® Turbulent Flow Application 20 Closing RemarksAppendices<20 Closing RemarksAppendices20 Closing RemarksAppendices
