The book presents a collection of selected papers from the I
Workshop of the Venezuelan Society of Fluid Mechanics held on
Margarita Island, Venezuela from November 4 to 9, 2012. Written by
experts in their respective fields, the contributions are organized
into five parts: - Part I Invited Lectures, consisting of
full-length technical papers on both computational and experimental
fluid mechanics covering a wide range of topics from drops to
multiphase and granular flows to astrophysical flows, - Part II
Drops, Particles and Waves - Part III Multiphase and Multicomponent
Flows - Part IV Atmospheric and Granular Flows - and Part V
Turbulent and Astrophysical Flows. The book is intended for
upper-level undergraduate and graduate students as well as for
physicists, chemists and engineers teaching and working in the
field of fluid mechanics and its applications. The contributions
are the result of recent advances in theoretical and experimental
research in fluid mechanics, encompassing both fundamentals as well
as applications to fluid engineering design, including pipelines,
turbines, flow separators, hydraulic systems and biological fluid
elements, and to granular, environmental and astrophysical flows.
Describes the physical processes leading to the Kelvin-Helmholtz
instability as a primary cause of clear air turbulence (CAT).
Provides a thorough description of the several factors that
increase the CAT probability. Covers in a comprehensive manner all
the topics ranging from the discovery of CAT during World War II to
modern techniques to observe and predict conditions conducive to
CAT formation. Touches on the great variety of proposed CAT
detection methods along with their performance and limitations.
Suitable for a wide range of readers in physics, geo-engineering,
meteorology, aerodynamics as well as in mechanical, aeronautical
and manufacturing engineering interested in the phenomenon of CAT,
its detection and its effect on aviation hazard.
This book gathers selected contributions presented at the Enzo Levi
and XX Annual Meeting of the Fluid Dynamic Division of the Mexican
Physical Society in 2014. The individual papers explore recent
advances in experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics and are
suitable for use in both teaching and research. The fluid dynamics
applications covered include multiphase flows, convection,
diffusion, heat transfer, rheology, granular materials, viscous
flows, porous media flows, geophysics and astrophysics. The
contributions, some of which are introductory and avoid the use of
complicated mathematics, are suitable for fourth-year undergraduate
and graduate students. Accordingly, the book is of immense benefit
to these students, as well as to scientists in the fields of
physics, chemistry and engineering with an interest in fluid
dynamics from experimental and theoretical points of view.
This book contains invited lectures and selected contributions
presented at the Enzo Levi and XIX Annual Meeting of the Fluid
Dynamic Division of the Mexican Physical Society in 2013. It is
aimed at fourth year undergraduate and graduate students, and
scientists in the fields of physics, engineering and chemistry who
are interested in fluid dynamics from an experimental and
theoretical point of view. The invited lectures are introductory
and avoid the use of complicated mathematics. The fluid dynamics
applications include multiphase flow, convection, diffusion, heat
transfer, rheology, granular material, viscous flow, porous media
flow, geophysics and astrophysics. The material contained in the
book includes recent advances in experimental and theoretical fluid
dynamics and is suitable for both teaching and research.

Time Series Analysis in Seismology: Practical Applications provides
technical assistance and coverage of available methods to
professionals working in the field of seismology. Beginning with a
thorough review of open problems in geophysics, including tectonic
plate dynamics, localization of solitons, and forecasting, the book
goes on to describe the various types of time series or punctual
processes obtained from those systems. Additionally, the book
describes a variety of methods and techniques relating to
seismology and includes a discussion of future developments and
improvements. Time Series Analysis in Seismology offers a concise
presentation of the most recent advances in the analysis of
geophysical data, particularly with regard to seismology, making it
a valuable tool for researchers and students working in seismology
and geophysics.
