Advances in Mathematical Fluid Mechanics is a forum for the publication of high quality monographs, or collections of works, on the mathematical theory of fluid mechanics, with special regards to the Navier-Stokes equations. Its mathematical aims and scope are similar to those of the Journal of Mathematical Fluid Mechanics. In particular, mathematical aspects of computational methods and of applications to science and engineering are welcome as an important part of the theory. So also are works in related areas of mathematics that have a direct bearing on fluid mechanics. The monographs and collections of works published here may be written in a more expository style than is usual for research journals, with the intention of reaching a wide audience. Collections of review articles will also be sought from time to time.
