Can I read Rotating Fluids in Geophysical and Industrial Applications on EtoBox?
Rotating Fluids in Geophysical and Industrial Applications by E. J. Hopfinger (eds.) is a nonfiction available to read on EtoBox.
What is Rotating Fluids in Geophysical and Industrial Applications about?
The volume presents a comprehensive overview of rotation effects on fluid behavior, emphasizing non-linear processes. The subject is introduced by giving a range of examples of rotating fluids encountered in geophysics and engineering. This is then followed by a discussion of the relevant scales and parameters of rotating flow, and an introduction to geostrophic balance and vorticity concepts. There are few books on rotating fluids and this volume is, therefore, a welcome addition. It is the first volume which contains a unified view of turbulence in rotating fluids, instability and vortex dynamics. Some aspects of wave motions covered here are not found elsewhere.
