Fluid Mechanics and the SPH Method
"This is an unconventional, deep and broad-ranging treatment of mathematical fluid mechanics, leading to the development of SPH for complex engineering applications involving turbulent free-surface flow. The book is built on careful development of theory from Lagrangian, statistical and variational principles, underpinned by strong physical reasoning. For graduate students in engineering and physics, particularly those with an interest in SPH, this will be a valuable reference, and there are fresh insights for the most expert reader."

This book presents the SPH method (Smoothed-Particle Hydrodynamics) for fluid modelling from a theoretical and applied viewpoint. It comprises two parts that refer to each other. The first one, dealing with the fundamentals of Hydraulics, is based on the elementary principles of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian Mechanics. Les mer

"The book will serve as an invaluable guide and introduction to anyone interested in "how & why SPH works". This text will take them into the heart of the method to the most fundamental basic principles, and give them the definitive background on the technique. The book will be particularly useful for graduate research students and practicing engineers. Furthermore, as SPH is now beginning to be part of university degree courses, this is possibly the only book that covers all the areas needed for further reading and study."
