1 Fluid Mechanics From Cambridge University Press An Introduction to Turbulent Flow Jean M. Mathieu and Julian F. Scott Both from Ecole Centrale de Lyon, France An Introduction to Turbulent Flow offers a sold grounding in the subject of turbulence, developing both physical insight and the mathematical framework needed to express the theory. It begins with a review of the physical nature of turbulence, statistical tools, and space and time scales of turbulence.
