"If ever a book on turbulence could be called definitive," declared Science, "it is this book by two of Russia's most eminent and productive scientists in turbulence, oceanography, and atmospheric physics." Noted for its clarity as well as its comprehensive treatment, this two-volume set serves as text or reference. 1975 edition. Reprint of the MIT Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts, 1975 edition.
Statistical Fluid Mechanics, Volume I: Mechanics of Turbulence by A. S. Monin, A. M. Yaglom This definitive work on turbulence by a pair of eminent Russians is famed for its clarity and its thoroughness. The two-volume set functions equally well as text or reference. 1971 edition.
Physics of Shock Waves and High-Temperature Hydrodynamic Phenomena by Ya. B. Zel’dovich, Yu. P. Raizer Physical, chemical processes in gases at high temperatures are focus of outstanding text, which combines material from gas dynamics, shock-wave theory, thermodynamics and statistical physics, other fields. 284 illustrations. 1966–1967 edition.
Hydrodynamic and Hydromagnetic Stability by S. Chandrasekhar The Nobel Laureate's monumental study surveys hydrodynamic and hydromagnetic stability as a branch of experimental physics, surveying thermal instability of a layer of fluid heated from below, Benard problem, more.
Stochastic Tools in Turbulence by John L. Lumley This accessible treatment offers the mathematical tools for solving problems related to stochastic vector fields. Mathematically self-contained, it uses generalized functions to present a relatively simple technique. 1970 edition.
