Applied Hydrodynamics

Reviews / Votes

"..this book merits being read and even studied by a very large spectrum of people who should be able to find it on the shelves of the professional and university libraries that respect themselves." - Jean A. Cunge, Hon. M. IAHR, Societe Hydrotechnique de France, Grenoble, France. In: Journal of Hydraulic Research Vol. 51, No. 1 (2013), pp. 109-110"[T]he combination of theoretical aspects, perfectly developed, with an applied point of view directly related to engineering and research, is an additional asset which is not found in other books covering the same field."

"[T]his book should interest all the students, engineers (beginner or not), researchers and teachers in fluid mechanics whatever their field of predilection. To be strongly recommended." - Dr Frederic Murzyn, ESTACA (France)

"This handbook is of excellent quality and is a great addition to the literature on fluid mechanics."

"The author made a strong pedagogical effort in writing this book. Without any doubt, it will become a standard work in Fluid Dynamics." - Pierre LUBIN, Assistant Professor, Universite de Bordeaux

"This should be recommended reading for anyone contemplating numerical calculations or detailed measurements on real engineering geometries, since this training teaches one what to expect."

"[T]his text has a wonderful personal touch, including many illustrations and appendices that spring from the author's love of flows in rivers and seas, of the design of ships and aeroplanes, and of history." - Richard Manasseh, Fluid Dynamics Group

"The book contains some historical remarks and a lot of application and exercises. It handles some aspects in more detail than other books of hydrodynamics and is, thereby, a good completion of the flow mechanics literature." - Prof. B. PLATZER in: Z. Angew Math. Mech., 2011, Vol. 91, No. 5, p. 399. "Each chapter contains a collection of worked examples, increasing the value of the book for teaching purposes. The coverage of topics within the book is adequate for undergraduate students, but the clarity of presentation of the theory is so well done that it may serve as a good basic reference for Ph.D. students and researchers."Oscar Castro-Orgaz, Ph.D., Instituto de Agricultura Sostenible, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, Cordoba, Spain. In: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, April 2013, p. 460
