This leads to the discussion of the mathematical properties of flows, conservation laws, perturbation analysis, waves and shocks. \u003cbr\u003eMost of the discussion centers on ideal (frictionless) fluids and gases. Viscous flows are discussed when considering flows around obstacles and shocks. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMany of the examples used to illustrate various processes come from astrophysics and geophysical phenomena.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Abraham Achterberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9462391947\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789462391949\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atlantis Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/27\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 391\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.94d","brand":"Abraham Achterberg","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44079666102527,"sku":"9789462391949","price":84.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5f0cb04-53d7-4095-b645-c3772ae46920.jpg?v=1685482441","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gas-dynamics-abraham-achterberg-9789462391949","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
