About the Book

Containing papers from the Ninth International Conference on Advances in Fluid Mechanics, this book discusses the basic formulations of fluid mechanics and their computer modelling, as well as the relationship between experimental and analytical results. Scientists, engineers, and other professionals interested in the latest developments in theoretical and computational fluid mechanics will find the book a useful addition to the literature. The book covers a wide range of topics, with emphasis on new applications and research currently in progress, including: Fluid Structure Interaction; Computational Methods; Multiphase Flow; Environmental Fluid Mechanics; Turbulent Flow; Bubble and Drop Dynamics; Heat and Mass Transfer; Hydrodynamics; Applications in Biology.
