Description
Concise and focused––these are the two guiding principles of Young, Munson, and Okiishi’s Third Edition of A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO FLUID MECHANICS. 

Based on the authors’ highly successful text Fundamentals of Fluid Mechanics, Brief Introduction to Fluid Mechanics, 3/e is a streamlined text, covering the basic concepts and principles of fluid mechanics in a modern style.  The text clearly presents basic analysis techniques and addresses practical concerns and applications, such as pipe flow, open-channel flow, flow measurement, and drag and lift. Homework problems in every chapter––including open-ended problems, problems based on the CD-ROM videos, laboratory problems, and computer problems––emphasize the practical application of principles. More than 100 worked examples provide detailed solutions to a variety of problems.

Also available for this edition is the successful JustAsk! program being used throughout engineering in fluid mechanics, circuits, electromagnetics, engineering statistics, and other courses. For a list of text problem solutions available in JustAsk!, visit the Student or Instructor sections of the website. Access to JustAsk! Can be ordered in a set with the book, or purchased directly on this website.


 JustAsk! Features:
• Detailed Problem Solutions that are interactive in  Problems and Solutions
• Animations of Key Examples in Interactive Applications


A concepts database, also interactive in Chapter Concepts Summary works like a glossary, but also linked to problems. So, choose a concept and search all the problems linked to that concept!
