Description

This title brings together classical and recent developments on the application of integral equation numerical techniques for the solution of fluid dynamic problems. The particular technique adopted is the Boundary Element Method (BEM), which is recognized as one of the most efficient numerical methods to solve boundary value problems. The first part of the book reviews the fundamental principles and equations governing fluid motion and the second part presents formulations and applications of the BEM as the basis for numerical solution of inviscid and viscous flow problems.
