Industry Reviews
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)
