Some Aspects of Low-Mach-Number External Flows
In this chapter, we consider first, in Sect. 4.1, a detailed derivation of the Navier–Fourier initial–boundary–value problem for the Navier velocity...

Aerothermodynamics, Nonlinear Acoustics and the Meteorological Equations
The study of low-Mach-number flows occurs in the general context of asymptotic modelling of fluid flows, and in a recent book (Zeytounian 2004, Chap....

Some Aspects of Low-Mach-Number Internal Flows
In the present chapter, the main problem concerns low-Mach-number flow affected by acoustic effects in a confined gas over a long time.

The Many Faces of the Asymptotics of Low-Mach-Number Flows
It has long been known (Janzen 1913 and Rayleigh 1916) that asymptotic methods provide a sound way of describing incompressible aerodynamics...

A First Approach to the Asymptotics of Low-Mach-Number Flows
In this chapter, we describe an initial (rather ‘naive’) approach to the asymptotics of low-Mach-number flows, based mainly on consideration of the...
-
Miscellaneous: Various Low-Mach-Number Fluid Problems and Motions
In this last chapter, we consider, first, in Sect. 7.1, mainly the asymptotic derivation of the KZK equation of nonlinear acoustics, which...
