Author(s) : FEISTAUER M., FELCMAN J., STRASKRABA I.

Type of monograph: Book, Guide/Handbook

Summary

This book, published in the "Numerical Mathematics and Scientific Computation" series, provides the reader with a detailed, extensive and mathematically precise guide. It gives a complex insight into the numerics of compressible flow, covering the development of numerical schemes and their theoretical mathematical analysis, their verification of test problems and use in solving practical engineering problems. Extract from the table of contents: fundamental concepts and equations (governing equations and relations of gas dynamics: properties of the viscosity coefficients; the Reynolds number; the energy equation; thermodynamical relations; entropy; the second law of thermodynamics; entropy form of the energy equation); basic facts from the theory of the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations; finite difference and finite volume methods for non-linear hyperbolic systems and the Euler equations; finite element solution of compressible flow.
