About the Book

Originally presented at the Sixth International Conference on Advances in Fluid Mechanics, this book contains work at the cutting edge of fluid mechanics. The basic formulations of fluid mechanics and their computer modelling are discussed, as well as the relationship between experimental and analytical results. This book should be a seminal text to scientists, engineers and other professionals interested in the latest developments in theoretical and computational fluid mechanics. Topics of interest include: Convection, Heat and Mass Transfer; Experimental versus Simulation Methods; Computational Methods in Fluid Mechanics; Multiphase Flow and Applications; Boundary Layer Flow; Non-Newtonian Fluids; Material Characterisation in Fluids; Fluid Structure Interaction; Hydrodynamics and hydrodynamics; Wave Studies; Industrial Applications; Turbulence Flow; Biofluids and Permeability problems.
