Das umfangreiche Handbuch zur Anwendung finiter Elemente auf die inkompressible Strömung: Jetzt neu als preiswerte Paperback-Ausgabe! Ausgehend von einer ausführlichen Erläuterung der theoretischen Grundlagen werden geeignete numerische Methoden zur Lösung vielfältiger Strömungsprobleme abgeleitet. Die in der Praxis außerordentlich wichtigen Anfangs- und Randbedingungen werden besonders sorgfältig behandelt. Nicht zuletzt finden sich Angaben zur bisher oft kontrovers diskutierten Rolle des Druckes. (06/00)
