Fundamental Trends in Fluid-Structure Interaction: 1 (Contemporary Challenges In Mathematical Fluid Dynamics And Its Applications) - Hardcover

THE INTERACTION OF A FLUID WITH A SOLID BODY IS A WIDESPREAD PHENOMENON IN NATURE, OCCURRING AT DIFFERENT SCALES AND DIFFERENT APPLIED DISCIPLINES. INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, EVEN THOUGH THE MATHEMATICAL THEORY OF THE MOTION OF BODIES IN A LIQUID IS ONE OF THE OLDEST AND MOST CLASSICAL PROBLEMS IN FLUID MECHANICS, MATHEMATICIANS HAVE, ONLY VERY RECENTLY, BECOME INTERESTED IN A SYSTEMATIC STUDY OF THE BASIC PROBLEMS RELATED TO FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION, FROM BOTH ANALYTICAL AND NUMERICAL VIEWPOINTS.FUNDAMENTAL TRENDS IN FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION IS A UNIQUE COLLECTION OF IMPORTANT PAPERS WRITTEN BY WORLD-RENOWNED EXPERTS AIMED AT FURNISHING THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF DEVELOPMENT IN SEVERAL SIGNIFICANT AREAS OF FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTIONS. THE CONTRIBUTIONS COVER SEVERAL ASPECTS OF THIS DISCIPLINE, FROM MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS, NUMERICAL SIMULATION AND MODELING VIEWPOINTS, INCLUDING MOTION OF RIGID AND ELASTIC BODIES IN A VISCOUS LIQUID, PARTICULATE FLOW AND HEMODYNAMIC.
