Hydrodynamics and Sound, M.S. Howe, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge (2007)

Denys Dutykh

Résumé

The document highlights the significance of hydrodynamics in various fields and applauds the book as a comprehensive introduction to fluid dynamics, accessible to a broad audience due to its minimal prerequisites. The review appreciates Howe's pedagogical skills in elucidating complex topics, making the book a potentially classic textbook in its subject area. The book's structure is outlined, covering fluid motion equations, potential flows, ideal flows, surface gravity waves, and basic acoustics. However, it notes a shortcoming in omitting computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical methods, suggesting their importance even at introductory levels. The review concludes by recommending the book to newcomers in hydrodynamics while advising more experienced readers to seek specialized literature.
