ED - SpringerLink (Online service) TI - Biological and Bio-Inspired Fluid Dynamics : Theory and Application SN - 9783030902711 AV - TA357 PY - 2022/// CY - Cham PB - Springer International Publishing, Imprint: Springer KW - Fluid mechanics KW - Biomedical engineering KW - Biotechnology KW - Biophysics KW - Engineering Fluid Dynamics KW - Biomedical Engineering and Bioengineering KW - Biomechanics KW - Fluid dynamics N1 - Introduction -- Fundamentals -- Scaling -- Internal Flows -- External Flows N2 - This text provides the reader with tools necessary to study biological and bio-inspired flows, all the while developing an appreciation for their evolutionary and engineering constraints. It is suitable for students already exposed to introductory concepts in fluid mechanics and applied mechanics as a whole, but who would not need an advanced training in fluid mechanics per se. Currently no textbook exists that can take students from an introductory position in fluid mechanics to these contemporary topics of interest. The book is ideal for upper-level undergraduates and graduate students studying a range of engineering domains as well as biology, or even medicine UR - https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-90271-1 ER -
