Summary:

This book is meant for readers who wish to focus on acquiring a sound understanding of the governing equations of fluid motion and the essential physics ingrained therein. There are several books already available in the market about Fluid Mechanics. The uniqueness of this book lies in the unconventional way in which the topics have been arranged. The author believes that the presented sequence of topics is more logical as it introduces the concepts of fluid mechanics building upon the fundamental framework of particle mechanics and tensor algebra.

Contents:

Tensors

Mechanics A brief review of the fundamentals
