A standard textbook presenting fluid mechanics from a practical viewpoint, for use at the undergraduate level in a mechanical or civil engineering or applied sciences curriculum. It assumes a knowledge of calculus and physics. The present revised edition adds new example and practice problems, computer and design problems, information on three-dimensional flow effects about a wing and about a formation of flying objects, and a new section on graphical solution methods for unsteady laminar flow problems.
