Twelfth International Conference on Numerical Methods in Fluid Dynamics: Proceedings of the Conference Held at the University of Oxford, England on 9-13 July 1990 (Lecture Notes in Physics)

These proceedings are devoted to the most recent research in computational fluid mechanics and include a thorough analysis of the state of the art in parallel computing and the development of algorithms. The applications cover hypersonic and environmental flows, transitions in turbulence, and propulsion systems. Seven invited lectures survey the results of the recent past and point out interesting new directions of research. The contributions have been carefully selected for publication.
