Professor John Tinsley Oden, a professor and vice-president of the University of Texas at Austin, in his 2013 speech in Tokyo suggested that computational mechanics is, or at least should be, the third pillar of science and engineering, in addition to theory and observation. The anatomy of computational mechanics consists of the mathematical model, the computational model, and the actual computation. This book covers a wide range of analyses of fluid flows, which make use of the mathematical and computational models of incompressible, adiabatic, and compressible flows. The book also touches on some actual computations. The mathematical models in the fluid flow field are established based on the conservation principles of mass, momentum, and energy. In the compressible flow analyses, the governing equation system can be solved directly with field variables of density, velocity, and energy. In the incompressible flow analyses, the field variables are velocity and pressure. By introducing the concept of the adiabatic flows, a wide range of fluid flows without heat conduction can be solved, for which the field variables are density and velocity, or velocity and pressure. The finite element method is one of the most widely used computational methods in engineering. The central aim of this book is to introduce mathematical foundations and comprehensive theories of the finite element method in the field of incompressible, adiabatic, and compressible flows. Because flow characteristics are considerably different from those of solid materials, the computational techniques are also different. The finite element method is presented in its precise form based on the bubble function method, the improved balancing tensor diffusivity (IBTD) method, stream-line upwind Petrov–Galerkin (SUPG) method, and the characteristic method in addition to simple Euler and two-step methods. In particular, one key feature of this book is to provide the analysis of adiabatic flows that can solve incompressible flows using non-mixed interpolation. v
