The Hamilton-Type Principle in Fluid Dynamics (eBook)
XXV, 404 Seiten
Springer Wien (Verlag)
978-3-211-34324-1 (ISBN)
The book describes Fluid Dynamics, Magnetohydrodynamics, and Classical Thermodynamics as branches of Lagrange's Analytical Mechanics. The approach presented is markedly different from the treatment given to them in traditional text books. A Hamilton-Type Variational Principle as the proper mathematical technique for the theoretical description of the dynamic state of any fluid is formulated. The scheme is completed proposing a new group of variations regarding the evolution parameter.
Angel Fierros Palacios was born in March 1933 in Pochutla, Oaxaca, México. He studied Physics at the Universidad Nacional Autonoma de México (UNAM), where he also obtained a Master degree and Ph. D. in Science. For many years he was Professor at the UNAM and a researcher at the Instituto Mexicano del Petróleo and at the Instituto Nacional de Investigaciones Nucleares. He also worked at different areas of the public administration such as the Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, the Secre-taría de Energía, as well as the Comisión Federal de Electricidad (CFE). He is the author of the project which originated the Instituto de Investiga-ciones Eléctricas (IIE) and also, he was General Director of the Museo Tecnológico de la CFE. Presently he is working at the IIE as Director de la División de Energías Alternas.
