The multidisciplinary field of fluid mechanics is one of the most dynamically developing fields of physics, mathematics and engineering.
In this book, the fundamental ideas of fluid mechanics are presented from a physics perspective.
Topics covered in the book include pressure, hydrostatics, and buoyancy; open systems and control volume analysis; mass conservation and momentum conservation for moving fluids; viscous fluid flows, flow through pipes; dimensional analysis; boundary layers, and lift and drag on objects.
