Customer Reviews Recommended for Reference/Overview, June 22, 2000 Reviewer: mechgirl1 from Atlanta, Georgia Like all of the Schaum guides for subjects in Mechanical Engineering, this outline provides a good overview of fluid mechanics, but it doesn't go into a great deal of depth. It's easy to find the equations if you want to use the book as a reference manual or a study guide, and the problems can serve as a good supplement to an undergraduate class in Fluids. |
