This book was released on 2012-08-04 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents the modern state of the art in the mathematical theory of compressible Navier-Stokes equations, with particular emphasis on the applications to aerodynamics. The topics covered include: modeling of compressible viscous flows; modern mathematical theory of nonhomogeneous boundary value problems for viscous gas dynamics equations; applications to optimal shape design in aerodynamics; kinetic theory for equations with oscillating data; new approach to the boundary value problems for transport equations. The monograph offers a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to recent mathematical tools designed to handle the problems arising in the theory.
