Bücher der Reihe Acta Mechanica. Supplementa

The objectives of the pre sent workshop, which was supported by a grant from the NATO Scientific Affairs Division, were to take stock of the progress in the five years to 1990 and to extend the scope of the community to include soil deterioration (and dust release) and those beach processes which link with aeolian activity on the coast.

This volume offers a wide range of theoretical, numerical and experimental research papers on fluid dynamics. Major fields discussed include stability phenomena, transonic flow, hypersonic flow, fluid machinery, computational fluid dynamics and miscellaneous problems.

On December 2-5, 1991, a Symposium on Thermal Stresses, Dynamics and Stability honoring Professor Bruno A. The papers presented during the Symposium by some of Professor Boley's former students and colleagues cover those areas of applied mechanics where most of his contributions have been made over the years.
