1.[no image]Dual porosity models for solute transport at Yucca Mountain (Sandia report / Sandia National Laboratories)
from Sandia National Laboratories

Customer Review:
Beckett's second play "Endgame," translated from French by his own hand into English, is a vision of the world at its end. It focuses on the few surviving human beings who are themselves facing mortality; the betrayal they face from their own bodies as their physical forms break down and the end of... more info

I bought this book used and was expecting the cover to be a little damaged like they said it would be, but upon receiving it the book was just in a sealed plastic bag with no packaging of any kind and the books bind at the top had been smashed down and ripped. Not a big deal but they should take... more info

Customer Review:
I used this text as a part of an intro to CFD class I am taking. I wasn't very impressed by this book. There are a few good parts, but for the most part, the book is very much wanting. You have to trudge through some confusing text in places because of the author's desire to be general. Several... more info

Incredibly informative. Shows you the "tricks" about how to be a theoretical physicist. Just like being a virtuoso in music there are tricks and shortcuts in theoretical physics that don't always get shared in the classroom or "God forbid!" in a textbook!.

An excellent compilation of images and photographs of fluid dynamics phenomena.

Customer Review:
To make this review quick I am a engineering major so as you can guess fluid dynamics is a required corse. F.D.M. is the designated book for this class. It gets the job done. Examples are thorough and clear. Plenty of problems to work out. Buy this book if you need it.

Customer Review:
The new text is a huge improvement over Hirsch's previous two-volume text on the same subject. It's still arranged a bit like an encyclopedia rather than a textbook, but it could be the best introductory CFD text.

Beats buying the US hardcover for nearly $200 dollars. I really dislike this book on the way it's written. BSL is a much more intuitive book and far more detailed but this is obviously a more advanced text.

I have this book first edition; this third edition is not much different from the first one. No CFD, no computer applications and almost the same subjects of 30 years ago. The chapters about MHD, non-newtonian flows and hyper-sonic flows are all but too short; they are almost useless.
