Fluid Mechanics: Incompressible Inviscid Flow

Fluid Mechanics: Incompressible Inviscid Flow provides a mathematically rigorous, modernized guide to low Mach number flows and the prediction of aerodynamic lift. This book serves as the second volume in a comprehensive five-part series on fluid mechanics. Beginning with an overview on applied aerodynamics, the book guides readers through complex analysis, two-dimensional potential flow, axisymmetric and three-dimensional potential flow, and thin airfoils and wings, before concluding with free surface waves. Designed as a core textbook for introductory graduate and advanced undergraduate students in aerospace and mechanical engineering, every chapter is supported by structured problems and integrated solutions, alongside an independent reference appendix that makes the material highly self-contained. While its introductory chapter briefly reviews the foundational concepts from the first volume, readers are assumed to possess a basic familiarity with those core fundamentals.
