High-Resolution Methods for Incompressible and Low-Speed Flows

From the reviews: "This book presents a wide variety of numerical methods for fluid dynamics. ... The material is well organized and quite thorough. The authors should be commended for including material on the actual implementation of methods that other texts do not give. ... This book should be a useful reference for computational scientists and engineers engaged in the numerical simulation of fluid flows." (John C. Strikwerda, Mathematical Reviews, 2005k) "The authors present the current state-of-the-art of numerical techniques for computing low-Mach number fluid flows. ... Many subjects are described in full detail, and the reader can find all the necessary information to write a code. ... more than 600 given references provide comprehensive information on the state-of-the art that an interested reader may consult. ... In conclusion, this book represents a highly valuable tool for researchers involved in the numerical simulation of incompressible flows."
