Mathematical Modeling of Unsteady Inviscid Flows

This book builds inviscid flow analysis from an undergraduate-level treatment of potential flow to the level required for research. The tools covered in this book allow the reader to develop physics-based mathematical models for a variety of flows, includ

Preface

In this modern era of ready access to computational resources, both for research and for instruction, potential flow theory has become somewhat of an endangered species. Though the subject persists in most undergraduate- and graduate-level aerospace and mechanical engineering curricula, a typical course covers only the most bas
