- Kinematics of Fluids: Formulating equations of continuity, describing paths of fluid particles, and defining velocity potential and stream functions.
- Equations of Motion: Detailed derivation of Euler’s equations of motion for inviscid fluids, along with conservative integrations like Bernoulli’s theorem.
- Viscous Flow Mechanics: Introduction to real, viscous fluid mechanics through the derivation of the governing Navier-Stokes equations.
- Boundary Layer Theory: Analyzing how fluids behave near solid boundaries, detailing skin friction, drag, and the transition into turbulence as shown by the airfoil wake on the book’s cover.
