An Introduction to the Mechanics of Fluids by C Truesdell
"A compact, moderately general book which encompasses many fluid models of current interest...an excellent book which is highly recommended to students and researchers in fluid mechanics." --Mathematical ReviewsFrom the reviews:
"The writing style is quintessential Truesdellania: purely mathematical, breathtaking, irrepressible, irreverent, uncompromising, taking no prisoners… The book is filled with historical nuggets… Its pure, exact mathematics will baptize, enlighten and exhilarate" (Applied Mechanics Review)
"The authors have backgrounds which are ideally suited for writing this book. The late C. Truesdell is well known for his monumental treatises on continuum thermomechanics. K. R. Rajagopal has made many important contributions to the mechanics of continua in general, and to nonlinear fluids in particular. They have produced a compact, moderately general book which encompasses many fluid models of current interest. … This is an excellent book which is highly recommended to students and researchers in fluid mechanics." (Mathematical Reviews)
Vivette Girault is Volunteer Collaborator at Universit� Pierre et Marie Curie. Her research topics include numerical analysis and partial differential equations.
Kumbakonam Rajagopal is Distinguished Professor at Texas A&M University. His research interests include continuum mechanics and its applications non non-linear materials.
