About the Book

A comprehensive account of the physical foundations of collision and impact phenomena and their applications in a multitude of engineering disciplines. In-depth explanations are included to reveal the unifying features of collision phenomena in both liquids and solids, and to apply them to disciplines including theoretical and applied mechanics, physics and applied mathematics, materials science, aerospace, mechanical and chemical engineering, and terminal ballistics. Covering a range of examples from drops, jets, and sprays, to seaplanes and ballistic projectiles, and detailing a variety of theoretical, numerical, and experimental tools that can be used in developing new models and approaches, this is an ideal resource for students, researchers, and practicing engineers alike.

Table of Contents:
1. Introduction; 2. Selected basic flows and forces; Part I. Collision of Liquid Jets and Drops with a Dry Solid Wall: 3. Jet impact onto a solid wall; 4. Drop impact onto a dry solid wall; 5.

Drop and spray diagnostics; 8. Atomization and spray formation; 9. Spray impact; Part IV. Collisions of Solid Bodies with Liquid: 10. Rigid body collision with liquid surface; 11. Particle impact onto wetted wall; Part V. Solid - Solid Collisions: 12. Particle and long bar impact onto a rigid wall; 13. Shaped-charge (Munroe) jets and projectile penetration; 14. Fragmentation.

About the Author :
Alexander L. Yarin is a Distinguished Professor at the University of Illinois, Chicago, a Fellow of the American Physical Society, and a recipient of the Rashi Foundation Fellowship of the Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities in 1992–5. His awards include the Gutwirth Award from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, the Hershel Rich Prize, and the Prize for Technological Development for Defense against Terror from the American Technion Society. Ilia Roisman is based at the Institute of Fluid Mechanics at Technische Universität, Darmstadt, Germany, where he leads the research group Dynamics of Drops and Sprays. He was the recipient of the STAB Research Prize for Fluid Mechanics in 2010. Cameron Tropea is Head of the Institute of Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics at Technische Universität, Darmstadt, Germany. He is a member of the Scientific Commission of the Council of Science and Humanities in Germany and has been Editor-in-Chief of Experiments in Fluids since 2002.

Review :
'The publication of the book Collision Phenomena in Liquids and Solids By Alexander L. Yarin, Ilia V. Roisman, and Cameron Tropea is timely and extremely welcome for researchers looking for a way of grasping the flood of information available. The authors are eminent researchers in this area, with many decades of experience between them in experimental, analytical and numerical investigations … Collision Phenomena in Liquids and Solids is an invaluable resource for researchers. The references listed provide an extensive survey of the literature and are a good starting point for anyone planning to study droplets, sprays, jets or splashing. There is no other comparable reference book available in this area that brings together such a wide range of information in a single volume in a clear, accessible fashion. This book is sure to be widely read and become a classic in the field.' Sanjeev Chandra, University of Toronto
