Finite Element Computational Gas Dynamics: Multi-Dimensional Upstream Biased Formulation details a systematic characteristics-based finite element procedure to investigate compressible inviscid and viscous inert and chemically reacting laminar and turbulent flows. The book is structured in two major parts: I) the continuum world and II) the discretized environment. Part I details the development of the governing systems from first thermomechanical principles and establishes an inherently multidimensional upstream bias formulation directly at the differential equation level, before any discretization. Part II presents grid generation techniques that use algebraic and differential methods. These are followed by an optimal finite element formulation that incorporates efficient metric data modelling, high-order Chebyshev elements, and accurate enforcement of boundary conditions. It is also shown that the formulation expands upon the Discontinuous Galerkin Method. The scalability of the overall algorithm is covered in dedicated sections of the book. The overall finite element formulation is then shown to generate accurate essentially non-oscillatory solutions that crisply capture contact discontinuities and normal as well as oblique shocks, for transonic, supersonic, and hypersonic inviscid and viscous as well as steady and unsteady laminar and turbulent flows.

This book is for graduate and upper-level undergraduate students as well as scientists and engineers in Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Physics, and Mathematics.

Fluid and flow problems in porous media have attracted the attention of industrialists, engineers and scientists from varying disciplines, such as chemical, environmental, and mechanical engineering, geothermal physics and food science. There has been a increasing interest in heat and fluid flows through porous media, making this book a timely and appropriate resource. <p/>Each chapter is systematically detailed to be easily grasped by a research worker with basic knowledge of fluid mechanics, heat transfer and computational and experimental methods. At the same time, the readers will be informed of the most recent research literature in the field, giving it dual usage as both a post-grad text book and professional reference. <p/>Written by the recent directors of the NATO Advanced Study Institute session on 'Emerging Technologies and Techniques in Porous Media' (June 2003), this book is a timely and essential reference for scientists and engineers within a variety of fields.<br>Department of Applied Mathematics, Ingham Centre for Computational Fluid Dynamics, University of Leeds, Leeds, UK<br>Ioan Pop is a Professor of Applied Mathematics at the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science at Babes-Bolyai University, Romania. He has more than 50 years' experience of research in fields including fluid mechanics and heat transfer with application to boundary layer theory, heat transfer in Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, magnetohydrodynamics, and convective flow in fluid-saturated porous media. In his career he has co-supervised more than 20 phd students, written 10 books, and co-authored over 850 research journal papers. He is the Director of the Centre for Excellence in Mechanics of the Romanian National Research Council, and serves on the editorial boards of 14 international scholarly journals, and has served on the organizing committee of over 27 conferences.<br>
