Computational Methods in Environmental Fluid Mechanics

Focusing on the mechanics of environmental fluids, this textbook explores fluid motion and heat transport in various systems, including surface water, subsurface, and atmospheric contexts. It presents fundamental modeling approaches based on continuum mechanics, addressing porous media and turbulence. The book also covers numerical methods for solving governing equations and includes object-oriented computer implementation with illustrative examples. Additionally, it demonstrates the practical application of computer models in civil and environmental engineering.
