Summary

The book puts the Body and Soul computational finite element methodology in the form of General Galerkin (G2) up against the challenge of computing turbulent solutions of the inviscid Euler equations and the Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity.

Computational Turbulent Incompressible Flow Summary

Computational Turbulent Incompressible Flow: Applied Mathematics: Body and Soul 4 by Johan Hoffman

This is Volume 4 of the book series of the Body and Soul mathematics education reform program. It presents a unified new approach to computational simulation of turbulent flow starting from the general basis of calculus and linear algebra of Vol 1-3. The book puts the Body and Soul computational finite element methodology in the form of General Galerkin (G2) up against the challenge of computing turbulent solutions of the inviscid Euler equations and the Navier-Stokes equations with small viscosity. This is an outstanding textbook presenting plenty of new material with an excellent pedagogical approach.

Computational Turbulent Incompressible Flow Reviews

From the reviews:

This book considers the numerical simulation of incompressible turbulent flows which are modeled by the Euler equations or the Navier-Stokes equations. ... Throughout the book, a lot of numerical examples are presented. ... they might be used in courses to illustrate the features of turbulent flows for students. (John Volker, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2008 d)
