DESCRIPTION:
"Pretty Sharp" according to J. Riegel. I have come across models developed by Sir Taylor in working with ballistics and explosives. This collection of papers, which is only 1 of a Pretty Sharp J. Riegel I have come across models developed by Sir Taylor in working with ballistics and explosives. This collection of papers, which is only 1 of a 4 volume set, re-affirmed that Sir Taylor was a pretty sharp scientist.. volume set, re-affirmed that Sir Taylor was a pretty sharp scientist.
Together, these volumes allow a thorough exploration of the breadth and diversity of Sir Taylor's interests within the field of fluid dynamics. The papers of the first three volumes are grouped approximately by subject, with Volume IV collating a number of miscellaneous papers on the mechanics of fluids. At the end of Volume IV, Batchelor provides the reader with both a chronological list of the papers presented across all four volumes, and a list of Sir Geoffrey Taylor's other published articles, completing this truly invaluable research and reference work.. Across these four volumes, published between the years 1958 and 1971, Batchelor has collected together almost 200 of Sir Geoffrey Ingram Taylor's papers. He is widely considered to be one of the greatest physical scientists of the twentieth century. Sir Geoffrey Ingram Taylor (1886-1975) was a physicist, mathematician and expert on fluid dynamics and wave theory
