| Title | Flow Control Through Bio-inspired Leading-Edge Tubercles : Morphology, Aerodynamics, Hydrodynamics and Applications |
| Author(s) | New, Daniel T. H;Ng, Bing Feng |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2020. |
| Description | XIII, 178 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This book describes and explains the basis of bio-inspired, leading-edge tubercles based on humpback whale flippers as passive but effective flow control devices, as well as providing a comprehensive practical guide in their applications. It first discusses the morphology of the humpback whale flipper from a biological perspective, before presenting detailed experimental and numerical findings from past investigations by various experts on the benefits of leading-edge tubercles and their engineering implementations. Leading-edge tubercle designs and functions have attracted considerable interest from researchers in terms of understanding their role in the underwater agility of these whales, and to exploit their flow dynamics in the development of new and novel engineering solutions. Extensive research over the past recent years has demonstrated that the maneuverability of these whales is at least in part due to the leading-edge tubercles acting as passive flow control devices to delay stall and increase lift in the post-stall regime. In addition to the inherent benefits in terms of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics, investigations into leading-edge tubercles have also broadened into areas of noise attenuation, stability and industrial applications. This book touches upon these areas, with an emphasis upon the effects of lifting-surface types, flow regimes, tubercle geometries, lifting-surface stability and potential industrial applications, among others. As such, it features contributions from key experts in the fields of biology, physics and engineering who have conducted significant studies into understanding the various aspects of leading-edge tubercles. Given the broad coverage and in-depth analysis, this book will benefit academic researchers, practicing engineers and graduate students interested in tapping into such a unique but highly functional flow control strategy |

| Title | Brownian Motion : Elements of Colloid Dynamics |
| Author(s) | Philipse, Albert P |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2018. |
| Description | XVII, 178 p. 50 illus., 15 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This textbook is an introduction to the Brownian motion of colloids and nano-particles, and the diffusion of molecules. One very appealing aspect of Brownian motion, as this book illustrates, is that the subject connects a broad variety of topics, including thermal physics, hydrodynamics, reaction kinetics, fluctuation phenomena, statistical thermodynamics, osmosis and colloid science. The book is based on a set of lecture notes that the authors used for an undergraduate course at the University of Utrecht, Netherland. It aims to provide more than a simplified qualitative description of the subject, without getting bogged down in difficult mathematics. Each chapter contains exercises, ranging from straightforward ones to more involved problems, addressing instances from (thermal motion in) chemistry, physics and life sciences. Exercises also deal with derivations or calculations that are skipped in the main text. The book offers a treatment of Brownian motion on a level appropriate for bachelor/undergraduate students of physics, chemistry, soft matter and the life sciences. PhD students attending courses and doing research in colloid science or soft matter will also benefit from this book |

| Title | Elementi di Meccanica dei Fluidi, Termodinamica e Fisica Statistica |
| Author(s) | Landi Degl'Innocenti, Egidio |
| Publication | Milano, Springer Milan, 2019. |
| Description | XI, 281 pagg. 1 figg : online resource |
| Abstract Note | In questo libro, con il consueto stile di scrittura semplice ma allo stesso tempo estremamente rigoroso, che ha sempre caratterizzato i testi dell'autore, le tre discipline di Meccanica dei Fluidi, Termodinamica e Statistica sono presentate per la prima volta in un contesto unitario, come ?? corretto aspettarsi per un primo approccio allo studio dei sistemi continui formati da un grandissimo numero di particelle. In particolare vengono presentate la meccanica e la termodinamica dei fluidi, liquidi e aeriformi, mettendone in luce gli aspetti legati alla fisica statistica, che viene qui introdotta assieme alle altre due discipline, pi?? tradizionali. Nonostante questo approccio unitario, l'opera pu?? essere comunque fruita selezionando le singole parti di interesse. Ognuna di queste ?? introdotta da brevi cenni storici e corredata da numerosi complementi, raccolti nella quarta parte del presente volume |

| Title | Plasma Physics for Controlled Fusion |
| Author(s) | Miyamoto, Kenro |
| Publication | Berlin, Heidelberg, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2016. |
| Description | XII, 495 p. 158 illus : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This new edition presents the essential theoretical and analytical methods needed to understand the recent fusion research of tokamak and alternate approaches. The author describes magnetohydrodynamic and kinetic theories of cold and hot plasmas in detail. The book covers new important topics for fusion studies such as plasma transport by drift turbulence, which depend on the magnetic configuration and zonal flows. These are universal phenomena of microturbulence. They can modify the onset criterion for turbulent transport, instabilities driven by energetic particles as well as alpha particle generation and typical plasma models for computer simulation. The fusion research of tokamaks with various new versions of H modes are explained. The design concept of ITER, the international tokamak experimental reactor, is described for inductively driven operations as well as steady-state operations using non-inductive drives. Alternative approaches of reversed-field pinch and its relaxation process, stellator including quasi-symmetric system, open-end system of tandem mirror and inertial confinement are also explained. Newly added and updated topics in this second edition include zonal flows, various versions of H modes, and steady-state operations of tokamak, the design concept of ITER, the relaxation process of RFP, quasi-symmetric stellator, and tandem mirror. The book addresses graduate students and researchers in the field of controlled fusion. |

| Title | Hemo-Dynamics |
| Author(s) | Zamir, Mair |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XXII, 407 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | Praise for Hemo-Dynamics: ???This book provides an elegant and intuitive derivation of the fundamental mathematics underlying fluid flow, and then applies these in a straightforward way to pulsatile blood flow in all its complexity. One of the triumphs of the book is that Zamir succeeds in making essential concepts such as the Navier-Stokes equations completely accessible to any reader with a knowledge of basic calculus. The author succeeds in conveying both the beauty of his subject matter, and his passion for the elegance and intricacies of fluid flow more generally.??? Lindi Wahl, PhD, Professor of Applied Mathematics, The University of Western Ontario ???Incredible, the figures alone are to die for??? At first glance ???Hemo-Dynamics??? seems like a deep engineering and modeling dive into the mechanical properties of the cardiovascular system, blood, and how they interact to generate flow and pressure. However, the text is laid out in a stepwise manner and I was especially impressed in the way that the key conceptual figures illustrate the essential concepts. In keeping with the philosophical underpinnings of engineering, Professor Zamir has also constructed his book so that the format, text, equations and the figures are self-reinforcing. This is a book that will be of great use to those who seek to understand the cardiovascular system from a mechanical and modeling perspective.??? Michael J. Joyner, MD, Professor of Anesthesiology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN |

| Author(s) | Bettini, Alessandro |
| Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2016. |
| Description | XIV, 236 p. 111 illus., 1 illus. in color : online resource |
| Abstract Note | This second volume covers the mechanics of fluids, the principles of thermodynamics and their applications (without reference to the microscopic structure of systems), and the microscopic interpretation of thermodynamics. It is part of a four-volume textbook, which covers electromagnetism, mechanics, fluids and thermodynamics, and waves and light, is designed to reflect the typical syllabus during the first two years of a calculus-based university physics program. Throughout all four volumes, particular attention is paid to in-depth clarification of conceptual aspects, and to this end the historical roots of the principal concepts are traced. Emphasis is also consistently placed on the experimental basis of the concepts, highlighting the experimental nature of physics. Whenever feasible at the elementary level, concepts relevant to more advanced courses in quantum mechanics and atomic, solid state, nuclear, and particle physics are included. Each chapter begins with an introduction that briefly describes the subjects to be discussed and ends with a summary of the main results. A number of ???Questions??? are included to help readers check their level of understanding. The textbook offers an ideal resource for physics students, lecturers and, last but not least, all those seeking a deeper understanding of the experimental basics of physics. |
