Description
Statistical Fluid Mechanics: Mechanics of Turbulence by Andre? Sergeevich Monin and A. M. I?A?glom is a comprehensive two-volume survey of turbulence, renowned for its clarity and thorough treatment. The book begins with an introduction to laminar and turbulent flow, before delving into the statistical and Lagrangian descriptions of turbulence, as well as topics such as shear flows near surfaces and free turbulence. The second volume continues this presentation, covering a range of subjects including spectral functions, homogeneous fields, isotropic random fields, and the theory of fully developed turbulence. This book provides a detailed exploration of turbulence, from its statistical and Lagrangian descriptions to its behavior in various media, such as thermally stratified fluids and compressible fluids.
