Description

Hydrodynamics is the study of fluid motion and its behaviour under various conditions. It explores the motion and properties of fluids, both in theory and practical applications. The theoretical framework consists of principles such as conservation laws, Navier-Stokes equations and Bernoulli's principle, which govern fluid behaviour at different scales. These theories provide insights into phenomena like turbulence, boundary layers and fluid interactions with solid surfaces. In practical applications, hydrodynamics plays an important role in engineering design, including the optimization of ship hulls, propellers and hydraulic systems. Moreover, hydrodynamics contributes to advancements in renewable energy through the design of efficient tidal turbines and wave energy converters. Continual advancements in computational modeling enable detailed simulations that enhance understanding and prediction capabilities in diverse fields. This book unravels the recent studies in the field of hydrodynamics. It presents the complex subject of theory and applications of the subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. It will help the readers in keeping pace with the rapid changes in this field.
