Clarendon Press P And HP Finite Element Methods Theory and Applications to Solid and Fluid Mechanics Numerical Mathematics and Scientific Computation
Book SynopsisThis title is an introduction to the mathematical analysis of p- and hp-finite elements applied to elliptic problems in solid and fluid mechanics, and is suitable for graduate students and researchers who have had some prior exposure to finite element methods (FEM).Trade Review'Summarizing the book is the first theoretical book addressing the hp-version of the finite element method which is used today in practical computations. It is very well written and gives a very good review of the techniques and results in this relatively new direction in the FEM. It is highly recommended to anybody with mathematical interest for both learning and reference' ZAMMTable of ContentsVariational formulation of boundary value problems ; The Finite Element Method (FEM): definition, basic properties ; hp- Finite Elements in one dimension ; hp- Finite Elements in two dimensions ; Finite Element analysis of saddle point problems, mixed hp-FEM in incompressible fluid flow ; hp-FEM in the theory of elasticity

Clarendon Press Dynamics of the Liquid State 10 Oxford Series on Neutron Scattering in Condensed Matter
Book SynopsisThis book provides a comprehensive discussion of the dynamical properties of simple liquids at a microscopic level. It presents experimental data and establishes a theoretical framework. This framework is then used as a basis for a modern version of kinetic theory and its applications.Trade ReviewThe result is a clear, carefully worded and pedagogically satisfactory text, which is practically self-contained for a reader with a basic knowledge of statistical and fluid mechanics. ....Balucani and Zoppi have produced a competent and clearly written text... * Jean-Pierre Hansen, Oxford University, UK, Physics World, May 1995 *...the book is a useful addition to the specialized literature, offering a comprehensive and diligent account of a limited area of research, at its current level of development. It should be useful to beginners for complementary reading after broader introductions to the liquid state of matter. * Libri Ricevuti E Recensioni, 1996 *Table of Contents1. The basic dynamical quantitites ; 2. The experimental side ; 3. General theoretical framework ; 4. Generalized kinetic theory ; 5. Single-particle properties ; 6.

Oxford University Press, USA Engineering Rheology 52 Oxford Engineering Science Series
Book SynopsisMany diverse materials, from man-made plastics to slurry, behave in ways that cannot be predicted using straightforward 'classical' equations. This book seeks to describe and quantify these behaviours for use in industry. There is an emphasis on the practical solution of problems using computer methods, and on the correlation between theory and experimental work.

Oxford University Press Theoretical Microfluidics Paperback
Book SynopsisMicrofluidics is a young and rapidly expanding scientific discipline, which deals with fluids and solutions in miniaturized systems, the so-called lab-on-a-chip systems. It has applications in chemical engineering, pharmaceutics, biotechnology and medicine. As the lab-on-a-chip systems grow in complexity, a proper theoretical understanding becomes increasingly important. The basic idea of the book is to provide a self-contained formulation of the theoretical framework of microfluidics, and at the same time give physical motivation and examples from lab-on-a-chip technology. After three chapters introducing microfluidics, the governing equations for mass, momentum and energy, and some basic flow solutions, the following 14 chapters treat hydraulic resistance/compliance, diffusion/dispersion, time-dependent flow, capillarity, electro- and magneto-hydrodynamics, thermal transport, two-phase flow, complex flow patterns and acousto-fluidics, as well as the new fields of opto- and nano-fluidTrade ReviewAn excellent text, very well written and pedagogically sound. Clear, concise, and complete, it explains the theoretical framework of microfluidics to a broad audience. * Kari Dalnoki-Veress, McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario *Written in a highly pedagogical style. The reader, whether graduate, undergraduate or researcher will find this book extremely useful. * Patrick Tabeling, ESPCI Paris *The field is rapidly evolving to the point where it will become valuable, and indeed necessary, to do calculations to design real devices. This book offers a prescription for doing this. * David Weitz, Harvard University *Table of Contents1. Basic concepts in microfluidics ; 2. Governing equations ; 3. Basic flow solutions ; 4. Hydraulic resistance and compliance ; 5. Diffusion ; 6. Time-dependent flow ; 7. Capillary effects ; 8. Electrohydrodynamics ; 9. Electroosmosis ; 10. Dielectrophoresis ; 11. Magnetophoresis ; 12.

Oxford University Press Worlds of Flow A history of hydrodynamics from the Bernoullis to Prandtl Paperback
Book SynopsisThe first of its kind, this book is an in-depth history of hydrodynamics from its eighteenth-century foundations to its first major successes in twentieth-century hydraulics and aeronautics. It documents the foundational role of fluid mechanics in developing a new mathematical physics. It gives full and clear accounts of the conceptual breakthroughs of physicists and engineers who tried to meet challenges in the practical worlds of hydraulics, navigation, blood circulation, meteorology, and aeronautics, and it shows how hydrodynamics at last began to fulfill its early promise to unify the different worlds of flow. Richly illustrated, technically thorough, and sensitive to cross-cultural effects, this history should attract a broad range of historians, scientists, engineers, and philosophers and be a standard reference for anyone interested in fluid mechanics.Trade ReviewThis book deserves a place in every university library, and it will surely be read with much interest, and some surprise, by many applied mathematicians. * Alex D.D. Craik, University of St Andrews, The London Mathematical Society Newsletter 2006 *The book is a valuable contribution to its subject and is likely to provide new and perhaps useful insights to those studying fluid dynamics. It is well written and produced. * D.H. Peregrine, Mathematical Reviews *By presenting in detail the interactions between many mathematicians and engineers, and by emphasizing the different styles characteristic of scientists in different countries, Darrigol has provided a fascinating insight into the development of hydrodynamics. * J. Stewart Turner, Australian National University, Canberra, August 2006, Physics World 2006 *A fascinating and well written book. * Meccanica 2007 *Table of Contents1. The dynamical equations ; 2. Water waves ; 3. Viscosity ; 4. Vortices ; 5. Instability ; 6. Turbulence ; 7. Drag and lift
