This book develops concepts and a methodology for a rational
description of the organization of three-dimensional flows
considering, in particular, the case where the flow is the place of
separations. The descriptive analysis based on the critical point
theory of Poincare develops conventional but rather unfamiliar
considerations from aerodynamicists, who face the understanding of
complex flows including multiple separation lines and vortices.
These problems concern industrial sectors where aerodynamics plays
a key role, such as aerospace, ground vehicles, buildings, etc.
