Micropolar fluids are fluids with microstructure belonging to a
class of fluids with nonsymmetrical stress sensor referred to as
polar fluids. Physically, they represent fluids consisting of
randomly oriented particles suspended in a viscous medium, and they
are important to engineers and scientists working with
hydrodynamic-fluid problems and phenomena.
The goal of this volume is to provide a comprehensive exposition
of the principles and methods of micropolar fluids for a broad
readership in the science and engineering of fluid mechanics.
Organized into three parts, the first part of the book presents the
basic model of micropolar fluids, with necessary background
information. Provided in the second part is a thorough presentation
of the analysis of the mathematics of motion of micropolar fluids,
with many detailed examples. Some select and important applications
in the topics of lubrication theory and porous media are discusssed
in the third part.
Topics and Features:
* Comprehensive and unified view of the subject, with clear
foundations for the basic model
* Chapter exercises and carefully chosen examples to reinforce
the material
* Coverage of numerical algorithm for behavior of micropolar
fluids in a bounded domain
* Discussions of exact solutions for microrotation and velocity
fields for some classical fluids flows
This study serves as an up-to-date and comprehensive reference
for mathematicians, scientists, and engineers. Micropolar Fluids is
an essential resource for anyone wishing to understand and needing
to use concepts and methods when working with the hydrodynamics of
miropolar fluids.
