{"product_id":"mechanics-of-fluids-2","title":"Mechanics of Fluids","description":"In this tenth edition of Mechanics of Fluids, Massey continues to provide clear and detailed explanations of the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and their application to engineering problems. Topics covered include hydrostatics, buoyancy, Bernoulli's equation, laminar and turbulent flow in pipes, turbulent boundary layers, open-channel flow, surface waves, compressible flow, pressure transients, and fluid machines. Throughout the text, theoretical developments are presented in a systematic manner, with detailed derivations and physical explanations that promote a thorough understanding of fluid-flow phenomena.   Written primarily for engineers rather than mathematicians, the book introduces concepts progressively, moving from basic principles to more advanced applications. Each chapter contains worked examples and problems to reinforce understanding and develop problem-solving skills. The text is suitable for undergraduate courses in mechanical, civil, aeronautical, and chemical engineering, while also serving as a valuable reference for practising engineers and scientists working in fluid mechanics and related disciplines.   New features of the tenth edition include a revised treatment of turbulent shear flows and boundary layers, expanded coverage of pressure transients and water-hammer phenomena, including the effects of viscous and turbulent damping, and a substantially revised presentation of Airy wave theory. A solutions manual is available to instructors adopting the text for course use.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57555367985525,"sku":"9781032834108","price":103.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/mechanics-of-fluids-2","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
