This book presents five sets of pedagogical lectures by internationally respected researchers on nonlinear instabilities and the transition to turbulence in hydrodynamics. The book begins with a general introduction to hydrodynamics covering fluid properties, flow measurement, dimensional analysis a
<p><p>This book is a complete revision of the part of Monin & Yaglom's famous two-volume work "Statistical Fluid Mechanics: Mechanics of Turbulence" that deals with the theory of laminar-flow instability and transition to turbulence. It includes the considerable advances in the subject that have bee
Presents the underlying physics of non-linear instabilities, and general theory. Explains a wide variety of phenomena as diverse as fluctuation chaos, wave-turbulent instabilities, vortex dynamos, beam-plasma interactions and magnetic fields in galaxies.
