Fluid Dynamics An Introduction

“Fluid Dynamics, by Michel Rieutord (Univ. Toulouse III Paul Sabatier), brings a different flavor to the fluid mechanics community. … this book can serve as an excellent introduction to graduate students in applied mathematics and physics interested in pursuing research in specific areas of fluid mechanics. … One of the strengths of the book is its culminating chapter, which provides detailed solutions to the exercises. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students.” (R. N. Laoulache, Choice, Vol. 53 (2), October, 2015)

“This is a revised and expanded translation of the original French edition … . The important instabilities are discussed, and references for further reading are provided to the inquisitive reader. … The helpful aspects are the solutions to the exercises provided at the end of each chapter to develop a better understanding of the subject. … this textbook is a welcome addition to the existing literature on fluid mechanics.” (S. C. Rajvanshi, zbMATH 1314.76001, 2015)
