Description
The Handbook of Mathematical Fluid Dynamics is a compendium of essays that provides a survey of the major topics in the subject. Each
article traces developments, surveys the results of the past decade, discusses the current state of knowledge and presents major future
directions and open problems. Extensive bibliographic material is provided. The book is intended to be useful both to experts in the
field and to mathematicians and other scientists who wish to learn about or begin research in mathematical fluid dynamics. The Handbook
illuminates an exciting subject that involves rigorous mathematical theory applied to an important physical problem, namely the motion
of fluids.
