About the Book

This Handbook consolidates authoritative and state-of-the-art information from the large number of disciplines used in Experimental Fluid Mechanics into a readable desk reference book. Both experimental methodology and techniques are covered fundamentally and for a wide range of application fields. A generous use of citations directs the reader to additional material on each subject. The book comprises four parts: Experiments in Fluid Mechanics, Measurement of Primary Quantities, Specific Experimental Approaches, and Analyses and Post-Processing of Data. It is written by experts from the world's leading institutes.

Table of Contents:
Introduction.- Part A. Experiments in Fluid Mechanics.- Part B. Measurement of Primary Quantities.- Part C. Specific Experimental Approaches.- Part D. Analyses and Post-Processing of Data.- About the Authors.- Subject Index.

About the Author :
C. Tropea: Professor Tropea studied and worked in Toronto, Karlsruhe and Erlangen before taking the Chair of Fluid Mechanics and Aerodynamics at the Technical University of Darmstadt in 1997. His background is in experimental fluid mechanics and he has authored numerous book sections and journal publications on this subject. He is currently Editor of Experiments in Fluids from Springer-Verlag and was previously Editor-in-Chief of Measurement Science and Technology from IOP Publishing. J. F. Foss Professor Foss received his BSME (1961), MSME (1962) and Ph.D. (1965) from Purdue University. He has been on the faculty at Michigan State University since 9/1964. He served as the NSF Program Director for Fluid Dynamics and Hydraulics (1998-2000). His research specialty is vorticity measurements. His research group addresses fundamental and applied problems in turbulent flows. The latter are primarily associated with automotive applications. He is a Fellow of ASMEand the A.V. Humboldt Stiftung and a Chartered Physicist of the IOP. He holds 7 patents involving fluid mechanics. A. Yarin: Alexander Yarin is currently a Professor at the Department of Mechanical and Industrial Engineering at the University of Illinois at Chicago, USA. In 1990-2005 he was a Professor at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology. Professor Yarin is an applied physicist working in the field of fluid mechanics. He received his PhD and Habilitation degrees from the Institute for Problems in Mechanics, USSR Academy of Sciences, Moscow. His main contributions are related to the free surface flows (jets, films, fibers, threads and droplets) of Newtonian and rheologically complex liquids. He is an author of 2 monographs, 5 chapters in books and 170 research articles.

Review :
From the reviews: "Handbooks are reference works for daily use by two main groups of people: on the one hand by experienced scientists, and by engineers or physicists ... . And, on the other hand, by students ... . due to the breadth and depth, this book serves both groups excellently. ... In summary, the community of fluid mechanics today has in their hands a highly valuable and important new book, which is a major reference in our science and will soon become a standard reference." (Gunter Brenn, International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, Vol. 51, 2008) "The stated purpose of this 1500 page handbook is to provide comprehensive information to the experimental fluid mechanics community for planning, executing, and interpreting experiments. ... A DVD-ROM PDF version of the handbook accompanies the hardback book. ... The book is excellent for a user who wants to obtain some information on a given topic without reading and digesting many papers. ... production quality is excellent too. ... The high-quality drawings, photos, and figures are clearly labeled and captioned." (Roger L. Simpson, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Journal, Vol. 46 (10), 2008)
