DESCRIPTION:
Foster is an Adjunct Professor of Mathematics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and was a Professor at The Ohio State University in the Department of Aerospace Engineering from 1970 until 2006. . Professor Foster's specialty is theoretical fluid dynamics, generally using asymptotic methods in conjunction with some computation. Professor Herron's research is in one of the richest areas of applied mathematics: the theory of the stability of fluid flows. Modern approaches involve new techniques in operator theory, energy methods, and dynamical systems. After completing his PhD at The Johns Hopkins University and a post-doctoral at the California Institute of Technology, he was in the Mathemat
"Brief but very helpful" according to D.E.. I like the straight to the point approach of this book. Definitely not for beginners, but handy for those slightly familiar with the background material. The exercises are quite interesting and insightful.
Isom Herron is a Professor of Mathematics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. Since that time, his research has been in three areas: directional solidification problems, particularly in Bridgman devices; mathematical models of dendritic crystal growth; and boundary layers in dilute suspensions, especially the singularities that arise in standard models. Professor Herron's research is in one of the richest areas of applied mathematics: the theory of the stability of fluid flows. . P
These topics are applicable in many areas, such as aeronautics and astronautics; biomechanics; chemical, civil, and mechanical engineering; fluid mechanics; and geophysical flows. Second, this book is designed to help provide serious readers of journals (professionals, researchers, and graduate students) in analytical science and engineering with tools to explore and extend the missing steps in an analysis. This book is concerned with partial differential equations applied to fluids problems in science and engineering. First, this book can function as a text for a course in mathematical methods in fluid mechanics in non-mathematics departments or in mathematics service courses. The to
