Publisher's Synopsis
Frontiers of Computational Fluid Dynamics 1994 Edited by D. A. Caughey Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, USA M. M. Hafez University of California, Davis, USA This book presents the current state of the art of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). It is dedicated to Antony Jameson, in appreciation of his contributions to this field. Recent achievements in the various disciplines which contribute to CFD are discussed, including grid generation and adaptation, finite–volume and finite–element methods, multi–dimensional upwind schemes and multigrid convergence acceleration techniques. Simulations of inviscid and viscous flows are covered for both compressible and incompressible flows, with emphasis on flow control or optimal shape design in fluid mechanics. The book consists of 29 contributed chapters, which are grouped in six sections, covering:
- Design and Optimization of Aerodynamic Configurations
- Unstructured Grid Techniques
- Solution of the Euler Equations
- Solution of the NavierStokes Equations
- Applications in Aerodynamics
- Applications in Hydrodynamics
