Gasdynamic Aspects of Two–Phase Flow: Hyperbolicity, Wave Propagation Phenomena and Related Numerical Methods

In this book, the author, a researcher of outstanding experience in this field, summarizes and combines the recent results and findings on advanced two–phase flow modeling and numerical methods otherwise dispersed in various journals. At the same time, he explains numerical and modeling techniques which were not previously covered by other books. The resulting systematic and comprehensive monograph is unrivalled in its kind, serving as a reference for both researchers and engineers working in engineering as well as in environmental science.
