With its effective pedagogy, everyday examples, and outstanding collection of practical problems, it's no wonder Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics is the best-selling fluid mechanics text. The book helps readers develop the skills needed to master the art of solving fluid mechanics problems. Each important concept is considered in terms of simple and easy-to-understand circumstances before more complicated features are introduced. The new edition also includes a free CD-ROM containing the e-text, the entire print component of the book, in searchable PDF format. From the Inside Flap Bruce R. Munson, Professor Emeritus of Engineering Mechanics, has been a faculty member at Iowa State university since 1974. He received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from Purdue university and his Ph.D degree from the Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics Department of the university of Minnesota in 1970. From 1970 to 1974, Dr.Munson was on the mechanical engineering faculty of Duke University. From 1964 to 1966, he worked as an engineer in the jet engine fuel control department of Bendix Aerospace Corporation, South Bend, Indiana. Dr. Munson's main professional activity has been in the area of fluid mechanics education and research. He has been responsible for the development of many fluid mechanics courses for studies in civil engineering, mechanical engineering, engineering science, and agricultural engineering and is the recipient of an Iowa State university Superior engineering Teacher Award and the Iowa State University Alumni Association Faculty Citation. He has authored and coauthored many theoretical and experimental technical papers on hydrodynamic stability, low Reynolds number flow, secondary flow, and the applications of viscous incompressible flow. He is a member of the American Society for Engineering Engineers, The American Physical Society, and the American society for Engineering Education. źródło opisu: http://www.amazon.com/Fundamentals-Fluid-Mechanics...(?) źródło okładki: http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTeNYvOPsh...»
