In a book that will be required reading for engineers, physicists, and computer scientists, the editors have collated a number of articles on fluid mechanics, written by some of the world's leading researchers and practitioners in this important subject area.

This volume contains 19 contributions of works conducted since 1998 in the French-German research programme "Numerical Flow Simulation", which was intiated in 1996 by the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).

This volume contains the contributions to the 10th International Workshop on Railway Noise, held October 18-22, 2010, in Nagahama, Japan, organized by the Railway Technical Research Institute (RTRI), Japan.

This volume contains eighteen reports on work, which is conducted since 2000 in the Collaborative Research Programme 'Numerical Flow Simulation' of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG).

Aerospace flows pose particularly challenging problems to LES, because of the high Reynolds numbers involved, the need to resolve accura tely small-scale features in the thin and often transitional boundary layers developing on aerodynamic surfaces.

This book reports on the German research initiative AeroStruct, a three-year collaborative project between universities and the aircraft industry. The book provides expert readers with a timely report on multidisciplinary aircraft design and optimization.

This volume contains results gained from the EU-funded 6th Framework project ADIGMA (Adaptive Higher-order Variational Methods for Aerodynamic Applications in Industry).

Contains seven keynote lectures of the TI 2006 conference that was held in Porquerolles, May 29-June 2, 2006. This book offers a view on theory, experiments and numerical simulations in the field of turbulence.

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is a high-fidelity approach to the numerical simulation of turbulent flows. The results provide insights into modern prediction approaches for turbulent flows and noise generation mechanisms as well as their use for novel noise reduction concepts.

Hermann Schlichting is one of the internationally leading scientists in the field of th fluid mechanics during the 20 century. Invited former scholars of Hermann Schlichting reviewed his work in boundary layer theory and in aircraft aerodynamics followed by presentations of important research results of his institutes today.

This volume contains new trends of computational fluid dynamics for the 21st century and consists of papers especially useful to the younger generation of scientists and engineers in this field. Topics include cartesian, gridless and higher-order schemes, and flow-visualization techniques.
