Computational Bodily Fluid Dynamics: Models, Algorithms and Applications

This book focuses on mathematical models for the integrated fluid dynamics of bodily fluids in humans, including arterial blood, venous blood, interstitial fluid, and cerebrospinal fluid. Emphasis is placed on a holistic approach by integrating all major fluid compartments throughout the human body to replicate their functional and anatomical connectivity. Many of the models and …

Computational Algorithms for Shallow Water Equations

This book is a thoroughly revised and enlarged version of “Shock-capturing methods for free-surface shallow flows”, first published by Wiley and Sons, 2001. The book describes mathematically free-surface flows through partial differential equations and includes modern shock-capturing methods to solve them, with strong emphasis on finite volume upwind and centred methods. Such equations and methods …

Exiliado en Buckingham Palace

Este relato parte de un lugar detrás de la Cordillera de los Andes, en el sur de una larga, angosta y maravillosa faja de tierra pronta a zambullirse en el Océano Pacífico; franja hostigada por erupciones volcánicas, lengüeteada por tsunamis, sacudida por los terremotos más violentos del planeta y en ocasiones fustigada por deplorables acciones …

Continuum Mechanics, Applied Mathematics and Scientific Computing: Godunov’s Legacy

A Liber Amicorum to Professor Godunov Demidenko, G.V., Romenski, E., Toro, E., Dumbser, M.    This book is a liber amicorum to Professor Sergei Konstantinovich Godunov and gathers contributions by renowned scientists in honor of his 90th birthday. The contributions address those fields that Professor Godunov is most famous for: differential and difference equations, partial differential equations, …

Non-Newtonian Fluid Mechanics and Complex Flows

Authors: Farina, A., Fusi, L., Mikelic, A., Saccomandi, G., Sequeira, A., Toro, E. Editors: Farina, Angiolo, Mikelic, Andro, Rosso, Fabio (Eds.)   This book presents a series of challenging mathematical problems which arise in the modeling of Non-Newtonian fluid dynamics. It focuses in particular on the mathematical and physical modeling of a variety of contemporary problems, and provides some results. The flow properties of Non-Newtonian …

Shock-Capturing Methods for Free-Surface Shallow Flows

Toro E F., Wiley and Sons Ltd, Chichester, 2001, 314 pages. The first of its kind in the field, this title examines the use of modern, shock-capturing finite volume numerical methods, in the solution of partial differential equations associated with free-surface flows, which satisfy the shallow-water type assumption (including shallow water flows, dense gases and …
