Introduction to Hamiltonian Fluid Dynamics and Stability Theory (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Hamiltonian fluid dynamics and stability theory work hand-in-hand in a variety of engineering, physics, and physical science fields. Introduction to Hamiltonian Fluid Dynamics and Stability Theory offers a comprehensive introduction to Hamiltonian fluid dynamics and describes aspects of hydrodynamic stability theory within the context of the Hamiltonian formalism. The author uses a review of the Hamiltonian structure of the nonlinear pendulum to introduce many of the subject's concepts. The book's approach and plentiful exercises combine with its thorough presentations of both subjects to make this an ideal reference, self-study text, and upper level course book.
