This is a complete introduction to the theory of waves and oscillations as encountered by physics and engineering students. It discusses both the mathematical theory and the physics of phenomena such as waves in fluids, electromagnetic waves, and discrete coupled oscillators in mechanics and electronics. The author gives a description of the mathematics of complex amplitudes and introduces forced and free oscillations and normal modes of resonance. Chapters cover wave guides, barrier penetration, and electromagnetic transmission. One section, devoted solely to surface waves, includes a discussion on light scattering and the determination of surface tension and viscosity, plasma oscillations, and feedback oscillations. Ideas and equations are displayed for easy reference, and sets of exercises follow each chapter.

Analytical Fluid Dynamics presents an advanced treatment of inviscid and laminar viscous compressible flows from a theoretical viewpoint. The book emphasizes basic assumptions, physical aspects of the flow, and the appropriate formulations of the governing equations for subsequent analytical treatment. Topics covered include basic concepts, inviscid flow, exact solutions for a viscous flow, and laminar boundary-layer theory for steady two-dimensional or axisymmetric flow. The book complements computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approaches and contains a definitive treatment of the second law of thermodynamics, (unsteady, three-dimensional) shock wave theory, hodograph theory, substitution principle, and first- and second-order boundary-layer theory. It will be a useful text for students and professionals in mechanical engineering, fluid dynamics, physics, aeronautics, and astronautics.

This is the instructor's manual version of the text "Fluid Mechanics" which provides 1392 exercises and 158 worked examples.

This introduction to convection in porous media assumes the reader is familiar with basic fluid mechanics and heat transfer, going on to cover insulation of buildings, energy storage and recovery, geothermal reservoirs, nuclear waste disposal, chemical reactor engineering and the storage of heat-generating materials like grain and coal. Geophysical applications range from the flow of groundwater around hot intrusions to the stability of snow against avalanches. The book is intended to be used as a reference, a tutorial work or a textbook for graduates.
