FLUID MECHANICS, VOL. 6, 2ND EDN

The best series ever. But only for deadly passionate and enthusiastic research students

These are the best theoretical physics book series written by lev landau the gifted physicist.

Hi. I would like to report some errors in the equations appearing in the text. For example equations 2.1, 2.3 and 2.4 have rho instead of p in the RHS. There could be more errors which I have not noticed. I request the publishers to kindly check the equations properly. Also please provide us an updated version of the book.

Pros: The product was delivered on time. Packing was good. Cons: The quality of paper is extremely poor. It appears like a pirated book. I could not verify whether the book is original Elsevier product.

Fantastic. The same content with acceptable print quality.

I'm a university researched in fluid dynamics, and this is the first book I go to when I need to look something up. It covers everything from the basics to more advanced topics I've been unable to find elsewhere (like for example the equations for a compressible viscous fluid). It's style is very straightforward and to the point. It's so good that, when I lost my previous copy, I had to buy another one.

Muchas Gracias, apesar que fue larga la esper, la entegra fue un excelente y el libro se encontro en buena condiciones. Saludos

Livro fantástico. Poucos livros tratam a mecânica dos fluidos de maneira tão formal e objetiva como este texto. Muito bem escrito e muito bem organizado. Depois de mais de 1 ano usando esta referência posso avaliar. Minha única crítica é em relação a tipografia usada com os símbolos do operador nabla trocado por "grad", "div" e "curl" mas faz sentido por ser um livro relativamente antigo, então isso é o de menos. Ótima aquisição.

I bought this book as a more advanced introduction to Fluid Dynamics after I had already taken a course in Fluid Dynamics during my early undergraduate career (and forgotten a good amount of it). Particularly, I was interested in learning more about turbulent flow, shockwaves, detonation, and more advanced topics in Fluid Dynamics for a course in the theory of supernovae. This book excellently and thoroughly covers these topics both in a mathematically sound and excellent way, as well as well-describing the phenomenology behind the explained topics. The book is simply, excellent, and most of the reviewers have already commented on the advantages of having a book that references thermodynamics very early on, that has solved example problems, and it covers a huge breadth of topics in excellent detail. I would not recommend this textbook to an undergraduate trying to learn fluid dynamics for the first time, unless they were very thorough and advanced in their coursework (probably a senior or junior level undergraduate looking to go on to study physics in graduate school). Excellent reference, excellent pedagogical writing style. I cannot say anything bad about this book!
