    Book description

    A comprehensive account of the physical foundations of collision and impact phenomena and their applications in a multitude of engineering disciplines. In-depth explanations are included to reveal the unifying features of collision phenomena in both liquids and solids, and to apply them to disciplines including theoretical and applied mechanics, physics and applied mathematics, materials science, aerospace, mechanical and chemical engineering, and terminal ballistics. Covering a range of examples from drops, jets, and sprays, to seaplanes and ballistic projectiles, and detailing a variety of theoretical, numerical, and experimental tools that can be used in developing new models and approaches, this is an ideal resource for students, researchers, and practicing engineers alike.

    Reviews

    'The publication of the book Collision Phenomena in Liquids and Solids By Alexander L. Yarin, Ilia V. Roisman, and Cameron Tropea is timely and extremely welcome for researchers looking for a way of grasping the flood of information available. The authors are eminent researchers in this area, with many decades of experience between them in experimental, analytical and numerical investigations … Collision Phenomena in Liquids and Solids is an invaluable resource for researchers. The references listed provide an extensive survey of the literature and are a good starting point for anyone planning to study droplets, sprays, jets or splashing. There is no other comparable reference book available in this area that brings together such a wide range of information in a single volume in a clear, accessible fashion. This book is sure to be widely read and become a classic in the field.'
