Turbulent Flow: Analysis, Measurement and Prediction
Author: Peter S. Bernard, James M. Wallace | Size: 5.3 MB | Format:DjVu | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Wiley | Year: 2002 | pages: 497 | ISBN: 9780471332190
Comprehensive, unique coverage of turbulent flow including modern prediction and measurement
Turbulent Flow presents the essential physical and analytical background that enables readers to make informed decisions when choosing the best method for the study and prediction of turbulent flows. Critical focus is given to experimental and numerical methods as well as what these methods have revealed about turbulent motion.
Coverage includes an introduction to turbulence theory, the fundamental equations of turbulent flow and their meaning, the techniques used in physical experiments and computer simulations, a review of the progress made in understanding the properties of turbulence, turbulence closures and their applications, and large eddy simulation methods.
Cutting-edge material includes:
* State-of-the-art turbulence closure and simulation techniques
* Up-to-date presentations of major theoretical and experimental advances
* Vortex analysis of turbulence structure, transport, and modeling

Dynamics of Flexible Multibody Systems: Rigid Finite Element Method (Foundations of Engineering Mechanics)
Author: Edmund Wittbrodt, Iwona Adamiec-Wójcik and Stanislaw Wojciech | Size: 5.36 MB | Format:PDF | Quality:Unspecified | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2006 | pages: 225 | ISBN: 9783540323518
new approach is presented in this book for modelling multi-body systems, which constitutes a substantial enhancement of the Rigid Finite Element method. The new approach is based on homogeneous transformations and joint coordinates. Apart from its simple physical interpretation and easy computer implementation, the method is also valuable for educational purposes since it impressively illustrates the impact of mechanical features on the mathematical model.

This is the second volume of three books, by the same author, devoted to classical mechanics. In this book, Classical Mechanics: Dynamics, dynamical and advanced mechanics problems are stated, illustrated, and discussed, including a few novel concepts by comparison to standard text books and monographs. Aside from being addressed to a wide spectrum of graduate students, postgraduate students, researchers, and instructors, from the fields of mechanical and civil engineering, this volume, which includes a wealth of worked examples and applications, is also intended to be used as a self-contained reference for researchers in applied mathematics and physical sciences. Chapter 1 covers dynamics of a particle and systems of particles, as well as rigid body motion about a point. Mathematical and physical pendulums are discussed in Chapter 2, and Chapter 3 presents static and dynamic problems of discrete mechanical systems. Classical equations of mechanics are studied in Chapter 4, and Chapter 5 introduces and illustrates classical impact theory. Chapter 6 deals with the vibrations of mechanical systems, and Chapter 7 briefly studies the dynamics of planets. Dynamics of variable mass systems are presented in Chapter 8, and body and multibody dynamics are studied in Chapter 9. A geometric approach to dynamical problems is the focus of Chapter 10, and Chapter 11 ends the text with geometric dynamics.
