Think Before You Compute: A Prelude to Computational Fluid Dynamics
3 stars
A quick introduction to concepts of computational fluid dynamics. The first part introduces partial differential equations and arrives at the Navier-Stokes equation. The second part is about the numerical solution of partial differential equations. The last part gives a good overview of existing methods that are more advanced.
