Summary
"Environmental applications of CFD have identified new research agendas not anticipated by engineering studies and raised fundamental questions regarding how such codes should be applied to complex, uncertain systems. Computational Fluid Dynamics: Applications in Environmental Hydraulics provides an accessible introduction to the theory underlying CFD codes." "This book is essential reading for researchers and professionals in fluvial geomorphology, environmental modelling and water resources. It is a useful reference for 2nd and 3rd year undergraduates and postgraduates of fluvial geomorphology, environmental modelling and computational fluid dynamics in Departments of Geography and Civil Engineering."--BOOK JACKET.
