High resolution upwind and centered methods are now a mature generation of computational techniques applicable to a range of engineering and scientific disciplines, with computational fluid dynamics being the most prominent. This textbook gives a practical presentation of this class of techniques. It is designed to provide readers with an understanding of the basic concepts, some of the underlying theory, the ability to use research papers on the subject, and, above all, with the required information for the practical implimentation of the methods. Applications include: compressible; steady; unsteady; reactive; viscous; non-viscous; and free surface flows. The author takes a didactic approach and points out practical applications. The book also contains some sample FORTRAN programs.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

High resolution upwind and centered methods are today a mature generation of computational techniques applicable to a wide range of engineering and scientific disciplines, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) being the most prominent up to now. This text book gives a comprehensive, coherent and practical presentation of this class of techniques. The book is designed to provide readers with an understanding of the basic concepts, some of the underlying theory, the ability to critically use the current research papers on the subject, and, above all, with the required information for the practical implementation of the methods. Applications include: compressible, steady, unsteady, reactive, viscous, non-viscous and free surface flows. Fachgebiet: Numerical Methods Zielgruppe: Research and Development
