A presentation of some of the basic ideas of fluid mechanics in a mathematically attractive manner. The text illustrates the physical background and motivation for some constructions used in recent mathematical and numerical work on the Navier- Stokes equations and on hyperbolic systems, so as to interest students in this at once beautiful and difficult subject. This third edition incorporates a number of updates and revisions, while retaining the spirit and scope of the original book., A textbook for a one-term upper level or graduate course, presenting the basic ideas of fluid mechanics in a mathematically attractive, rather than fully rigorous, manner, and explaining some of the physics behind the constructions. A primary goal is to inspire, as well as to prepare, students for f, Mathematics is playing an ever more important role in the physical and biological sciences, provoking a blurring of boundaries between scientific disciplines and a resurgence of interest in the modern as weil as the clas sical techniques of applied mathematics. This renewal of interest, bothin research and teaching, has led to the establishment of the series: Texts in Applied Mathematics (TAM). The development of new courses is a natural consequence of a high Ievel of excitement on the research frontier as newer techniques, such as numerical and symbolic computer systems, dynamical systems, and chaos, mix with and reinforce the traditional methods of applied mathematics. Thus, the purpose of this textbook series is to meet the current and future needs of these advances and encourage the teaching of new courses. TAM will publish textbooks suitable for use in advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate courses, and will complement the Applied Mathematical Seiences (AMS) series, which will focus on advanced textbooks and research Ievel monographs. Preface This book is based on a one-term coursein fluid mechanics originally taught in the Department of Mathematics of the U niversity of California, Berkeley, during the spring of 1978. The goal of the course was not to provide an exhaustive account of fluid mechanics, nor to assess the engineering value of various approximation procedures.", The goal of this text is to present some of the basic ideas of fluid mechanics in a mathematically attractive manner, to present the physical background and motivation for some constructions that have been used in recent mathematical and numerical work on the Navier-Stokes equations and on hyperbolic systems, and to interest some of the students in this beautiful and difficult subject. The third edition has incorporated a number of updates and revisions, but the spirit and scope of the original book are unaltered.

This book takes a critical stance on existing assumptions about ethical issues in science, giving students, researchers and the general reader interested in the place of science in contemporary society a compelling framework for future thinking and discussion., In recent years, experiments in geoengineering intentionally manipulating the Earth s climate to reduce global warming have become the focus of a vital debate about the intended and unintended consequences of innovation, raising profound social, political and ethical questions.Suitable for new and advanced users, the guide covers the latest features of Maple and offers a tutorial that extends from high school algebra and graphing to advanced topics of mathematics, such as special functions, multivariable calculus, and differential equations.New perspectives are presented on a range of critical topics including embodied learning, the theory-practice divide, new developments in the early years, educating future mathematics education professors, problem solving in a 21st century curriculum, culture and mathematics learning, complex systems, critical analysis of design-based research, multimodal technologies, and e-textbooks.Among the topics addressed here in considerable detail are the following.Special emphasis is taken on aspects stemming from miniturisations to the nano scale.Formative assessments are included to support data-driven instruction.Taking a broad, applications-based approach, Sedgewick and Wayne teach through important examples from science, mathematics, engineering, finance, and commercial computing.
