Download or read book Analytical and Numerical Methods for Wave Propagation in Fluid Media written by Krzysztof Murawski and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book surveys analytical and numerical techniques appropriate to the description of fluid motion with an emphasis on the most widely used techniques exhibiting the best performance. Analytical and numerical solutions to hyperbolic systems of wave equations are the primary focus of the book. In addition, many interesting wave phenomena in fluids are considered using examples such as acoustic waves, the emission of air pollutants, magnetohydrodynamic waves in the solar corona, solar wind interaction with the planet venus, and ion-acoustic solitons.
