| Abstract | Contains 21 reprinted articles on topics including Lewis Fry Richardson and his contributions to mathematics, meteorology, and models of conflict; aircraft laminar flow control; vortex dynamics in ...urbulence; interaction between porous media and wave motion; airplane trailing vortices; turbulence in astrophysics; vortex-body interactions; nonintrusive measurements for high-speed supersonic and hypersonic flows; direct simulation Monte Carlo; air-water gas exchange; computational hypersonic rarefied flows; direct numerical simulation; micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS) and fluid flows; and fluid mechanics for sailing vessel design. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR Presents recent work in fluid mechanics. Subjects include steady streaming, the fluid mechanics of fires, experiments on thermocapillary instabilities, surface pressure measurements using luminescent coatings, and spin-up of homogeneous and stratified fluids. Other topics are extrusion instabilities and wall slip, turbulent relative dispersion, mechanics of coastal forms, aerodynamics of high-speed trains, and modeling of fluid-structure interaction. Compression system stability and active control, spilling breakers, mathematical modeling and computer simulations of turbulent flows, and inertial effects in suspension and porous-mediated flows are also discussed. The editor is affiliated with Cornell University. c. Book News Inc. The 21 articles in this year's volume address sound propagation close to the ground, cavitation in vortical flows, non-coalescence and non- wetting behavior of liquids, boundary-layer receptivity to freestream disturbances, and ship wakes and their radar images. Other topics include one-point closure models for buoyancy-driven turbulent flows, wall layer models for large eddy simulations, and molecular orientation effects in viscoelasticity. The careers of three professors also are revisited. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR. Recent work in the field is collected here. Papers touch on areas including aircraft icing, water-wave impact on walls, mechanisms on transverse motions in turbulent wall flows, instabilities in fluidized beds, and aerodynamics of small vehicles. Other topics include material instability in complex fluids, mixing efficiency in stratified shear flows, the flow of human crowds, particle-turbulence interactions in atmospheric clouds, rapid granular flows, shell models of energy cascade in turbulence, and flow and dispersion in urban areas. Lumley is affiliated with Cornell University. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) The 16 papers in the 2004 edition of the annual review focus on theories for understanding the motion of waves and new medical applications. The opening chapter chronicles early work published in Europe on the theory of water waves. Other topics include coating flows, Langmuir circulation, shock wave drag reduction, modeling of accidental explosions, turbulent flows over rough walls, biofluid mechanics in flexible tubes, ray models for internal waves, and experimental and computational methods for quantifying blood flow velocity and pressure. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) The latest edition of the annual volume reviews major experimental and theoretical studies on microcirculation and hemorheology, the fluid mechanics and rheology of dense suspensions, the large-scale dynamics of the extratropical stratosphere, Lagrangian transport in oceanic flows, and gravity-driven bubbly flows. Other of the papers summarize current understanding of the physical mechanisms governing the movement of a tropical cyclone, the aerodynamics of insect flight, feedback control for combustion oscillations, turbulent mixing, and microfluidic actuation by modulation of surface stresses. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Davis (Northwestern University) and Moin (Stanford University) collect recent work in the field. Aerodynamic race cars, fluid dynamics of pulsatile artificial blood pumps, and drop impact dynamics are some topics covered. Others areas examined include modeling shapes and dynamics of confined bubbles, electrokinetic flow and dispersion in capillary electrophoresis, fluid mechanics and homeland security, and biofluid mechanics of reproduction. Long nonlinear internal waves, premelting dynamics, and large-eddy simulation of turbulent combustion are other areas explored. Color and b&w images are included. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) The 19 papers in the 2007 edition of the annual volume examine internal tide generation in the deep ocean, stented artery flow patterns, the nonmodal approach to hydrodynamic stability theory, and the dynamics of detonation in explosive systems.

Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Davis (engineering science and applied mathematics, Northwestern U.) and Moin (mechanical engineering, Stanford U.) have edited this annual review of the latest research in fluid mechanics for students and fellow researchers. Beginning with a summary of the groundbreaking work performed by Theodore von Karmaan from 1952 to 1963, this volume covers research papers published during 2008 on such subjects as detached-eddy simulation, morphodynamics of tidal inlet systems and the 3D Navier-Stokes problem. Each article is accompanied by an abstract, a detailed bibliography and a list of keywords to facilitate further research from online sources. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) This is the 42nd volume of an annual volume that presents review articles of recent work in the field of fluid mechanics. Editors Davis (Northwestern U.) and Moin (Stanford U.) present 23 review essays, covering such topics as fluvial sedimentary patterns, shear bands in matter with granularity, turbulent dispersed multiphase flow, turbidity currents and their deposits, measurement of the velocity gradient tensor in turbulent flows, fraction drag reduction of external flows with bubble and gas injections, wave-vortex interactions in fluids and superfluids, scale-dependent models for atmospheric flows, airflow and particle transport in the human respiratory system, fluid dynamics of urban atmospheres in complex terrain, and wavelet methods in computational fluid dynamics, to name a few. Also included are cumulative indexes of contributing authors and chapter titles for all 42 extant volumes, as well as a short list of related articles from the 2009 Annual Reviews covering astronomy and astrophysics, earth and planetary sciences, and physical chemistry. Annotation ©2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) Specialists in 27 areas of the fluid mechanics field synthesize recent developments from the technical literature. Among topics are fish swimming and bird/insect flight, shock-bubble interactions, the fluid mechanics of papermaking, actuators for active flow control, discrete conservation properties of unstructured mesh schemes, scale interactions in magneto-hydrodynamic turbulence, flapping and bending bodies interacting with fluid flows, rip currents, planetary magnetic fields and fluid dynamics, surfactant effects on bubble motion and bubbly flows, and the aero-breakup of Newtonian and viscoelastic liquids.
