The book "Advances in Transport Processes," edited by A. S. Mujumdar, consists of two volumes that introduce a new series of review articles on fluid dynamics and transport processes. The books are well-printed with clear figures, though the paper quality is poor. Volume I includes five reviews covering topics such as blood flow, two-phase flow, electrochemical systems, numerical methods, and fluid mixing. These reviews are somewhat limited in scope and may not reflect the latest developments in the field. Volume II contains six reviews on topics like aquatic systems, non-Newtonian flows, electrohydrodynamic enhancement, dust removal, multiphase flow models, and particle motion. While some reviews are somewhat dated, others, like Kulacki's on electrohydrodynamic enhancement, are particularly insightful. The series is recommended for engineers and scientists seeking to understand transport processes.
"how to Write and Publish Engineering Papers and Reports" by H. B. Michaelson is a comprehensive guide covering all aspects of engineering communication. It includes chapters on selecting journals, writing abstracts, organizing research, illustrations, word processing, bibliography compilation, dealing with editors, rebutting reviewers, proofreading, and oral presentations. The book is highly recommended for engineers and researchers.
"An Album of Fluid Motion," edited by Milton van Dyke, is a collection of 282 photographs of fluid flow phenomena, each accompanied by insightful descriptions. The book is well-organized into categories and is an excellent supplement to fluid mechanics courses. It is affordable and ideal for students, with a hardcover edition available for those who prefer durability. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in fluid mechanics.The book "Advances in Transport Processes," edited by A. S.
