Summary "During the last five decades, computational aerodynamics has emerged as an engineering field that creates new horizons for aerodynamic simulation via sophisticated numerical algorithms. This book is a unique reference on the foundations, methods, and applications of this rapidly developing field. It is designed for a wide audience, from graduate students to experienced researchers and professionals in the aerospace engineering field. The book opens with a presentation of the essential elements of computational aerodynamics, including the relevant mathematical methods of fluid flow and numerical methods for partial differential equations. The introductory chapters are followed by a comprehensive presentation of stability theory, shock capturing schemes, viscous flow, and time integration. The final chapters treat more advanced topics. The book is a rich source of information that is essential for further fundamental research, with applications in aeronautics and a wide range of other fields, such as automotive design, wind turbines, and astrophysics"-- Provided by publisher
