Summary

This book is concerned with mathematical and numerical methods for compressible flow. It aims to provide the reader with a sufficiently detailed and extensive, mathematically precise, but comprehensible guide, through a wide spectrum of mathematical and computational methods used in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) for the numerical simulation of compressible flow. Up-to-date techniques applied in the numerical solution of inviscid as well asviscous compressible flow on unstructured meshes …

Critics Review

This book presents an up-to-date overview of numerical methods for the solution of inviscid and viscous flows with particular emphasis on finite volume and finite element methods.

`There are many texts on numerical methods for compressible flow but this one is special … The book is written in a very pleasant and readable style. The publisher has provided the book with good paper and a hardcover binding so that it can be a companion for many years. This book belongs on the shelf of every mathematician working in the area of mathematics-based CFD.‘Thomas H. Sonar, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2007k
