Ebook: Interfacial convection in multilayer systems

This book gives a systematic investigation of convection in systems comprised of liquid layers with deformatable interfaces.

This new edition includes completely updated and new material on flows in ultra thin films and brings up to date progress made in the technology on micro and nano scales. Also, this revised edition will reflect progress in the dynamics of complex fluids.

The number one text in its field, Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics is respected by professors and students alike for its comprehensive topical coverage, its varied examples and homework problems, its application of the visual component of fluid mechanics, and its strong focus on learning. The authors have designed their presentation to allow for the gradual development of student confidence in problem solving. Each important concept is introduced in simple and easy-to-understand terms before more complicated examples are discussed.Note: CD-ROM/DVD and other supplementary materials are not included as part of eBook file Introduction.- Types of convective instabilities in systems with an interface.- Benard problem in multilayer systems with undeformable interfaces.- Benard problem in multilayer systems with deformable interfaces.- Stability of flows.- Outlook
