This book explores the dynamics of planetary and stellar fluid
layers, including atmospheres, oceans, iron cores, and convective
and radiative zones in stars, describing the different theoretical,
computational and experimental methods used to study these problems
in fluid mechanics, including the advantages and limitations of
each method for different problems. This scientific domain is by
nature interdisciplinary and multi-method, but while much effort
has been devoted to solving open questions within the various
fields of mechanics, applied mathematics, physics, earth sciences
and astrophysics, and while much progress has been made within each
domain using theoretical, numerical and experimental approaches,
cross-fertilizations have remained marginal. Going beyond the state
of the art, the book provides readers with a global introduction
and an up-to-date overview of relevant studies, fully addressing
the wide range of disciplines and methods involved. The content
builds on the CISM course "Fluid mechanics of planets and stars",
held in April 2018, which was part of the research project FLUDYCO,
supported by the European Research Council (ERC) under the European
Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.
