Summary

This textbook primarily explains the construction of the classical fluid model to readers in a holistic manner. Secondly, the book also explains some possible modifications of the classical fluid model which either make the model applicable in some special cases (viscous or turbulent fluids) or simplify it in accordance with the specific mechanical properties (hydrostatics, two-dimensional flows, boundary layers, etc.).
 
The book explains theoretical concepts in two parts. The first part is dedicated to the derivation of the classical model of the perfect fluid. The second part of the book covers important modifications to the fluid model which account for calculations of momentum, force and the laws of energy conservation. Concepts in this section include the redefinition of the stress tensor in cases of viscous or turbulent flows and laminar and turbulent boundary layers. 
 
The text is supplemented by appropriate exercises and problems which may be used in practical classes. These additions serve to teach students how to work with complex systems governed by differential equations.
 
Classical Fluid Mechanics is an ideal textbook for students undertaking semester courses on fluid physics and mechanics in undergraduate degree programs.
Available since: 01/31/2024.
Print length: 260 pages.

    An internationally renowned neuroscientist, Dr. Wenk has been educating college and medical students about the brain and lecturing around the world for more than 40 years. With this essential book, he vividly demonstrates how a little knowledge about the foods and drugs we eat can teach us a lot about how our brain functions. The information is presented in an irreverent and non-judgmental manner, making it highly accessible to high school teenagers, inquisitive college students, and worried parents. Dr. Wenk has skillfully blended the highest scholarly standards with illuminating insights, gentle humor, and welcome simplicity. The intersection between brain science, drugs, food, and our cultural and religious traditions is plainly illustrated in an entirely new light.
 
Wenk tackles fundamental questions, including:

Why do you wake up tired from a good long sleep and why does your sleepy brain crave coffee and donuts?
How can understanding a voodoo curse explain why it is so hard to stop smoking?
Why is a vegetarian or gluten-free diet not always the healthier option for the brain?
How can liposuction improve brain function?

    Artificial intelligence in marketing, which is commonly known as AI Marketing, is a process of striking a chord of linkage between customer statistics and artificial intelligence hypotheses. It is basically an automated learning curve for a business house on the marketing front such that it can predict a customer’s ongoing move and the next phase of action. By doing so, a business entity can easily amplify its outlook in the interests of the customer, which, in turn, displays the quality of relevant products or services in an intelligent manner to reach a larger audience. 
Due to the emergence of artificial intelligence marketing solutions, an effective recourse is seen apparent in terms of bonding between scientific data points, which are amassed industriously for subsequent implementation. In other words, the erstwhile process of manual hard work of assembling and analyzing a colossal quantum of data has surely become a thing of the past.

    We can thrive in the changing climate.Production & yield, pest & disease pressure, food quality, and population are all aspects of food security being affected by climate disruption. According to current projections, the global population will be thirty percent higher in 2050. Because of this and anticipated dietary changes, growers will need to produce fifty percent more food annually by 2050, without expanding the land base. What can you do? Including interviews with some of the world’s top researchers in the field of agriculture, A Farmer’s Guide to Climate Disruption provides insight into how you can thrive in the changing climate by using produce growing methods that stem the tide of climate change while regenerating your land.

    A pioneering urban farmer and MacArthur "Genius Award" winner points the way to building a new food system that can feed — and heal — broken communities.The son of a sharecropper, Will Allen had no intention of ever becoming a farmer himself. But after years in professional basketball and as an executive for Kentucky Fried Chicken and Procter & Gamble, Allen cashed in his retirement fund for a two-acre plot a half mile away from Milwaukee's largest public-housing project. The area was a food desert with only convenience stores and fast-food restaurants to serve the needs of local residents.In the face of financial challenges and daunting odds, Allen built the country's preeminent urban farm — a food and educational center that now produces enough vegetables and fish year-round to feed thousands of people. Employing young people from the neighboring housing project and community, Growing Power has sought to prove that local food systems can help troubled youths, dismantle racism, create jobs, bring urban and rural communities closer together, and improve public health. Today, Allen's organization helps develop community food systems across the country.An eco-classic in the making, The Good Food Revolution is the story of Will's personal journey, the lives he has touched, and a grassroots movement that is changing the way our nation eats.
