Description
Applied Mathematics: Body&Soul is a mathematics education reform p- gram including a series of books, together with associated educational ma- rial and open source software freely available from the project web page at www.bodysoulmath.org. Body&Soul re?ects the revolutionary new possibilities of mathematical modeling opened by the modern computer in the form of Computational C- culus (CC), which is now changing the paradigm of mathematical modeling in science and technology with new methods, questions and answers, as a modern form of the classical calculus of Leibniz and Newton. The Body&Soul series of books presents CC in a synthesis of com- tational mathematics (Body) and analytical mathematics (Soul) including applications. Volumes 1-3 [36] give a modern version of calculus and linear algebra including computation starting at a basic undergraduate level, and subsequent volumes on a graduate level cover di?erent areas of applications with focus on computational methods: Volume 4: Computational Turbulent Incompressible Flow. Volume 5: Computational Thermodynamics. Volume 6: Computational Dynamical Systems. The present book is Volume 4, with Volumes 5 and 6 to appear in 2007 and further volumes on solid mechanics and electro-magnetics being planned. A gentle introduction to the Body&Soul series is given in [63].
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews:
"This book considers the numerical simulation of incompressible turbulent flows which are modeled by the Euler equations or the Navier-Stokes equations. . Throughout the book, a lot of numerical examples are presented. . they might be used in courses to illustrate the features of turbulent flows for students." (John Volker, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 d)
