Abstract

This book will cover many aspects of inviscid incompressible flows. But rather than proceed directly, let us first provide ourselves a roadmap of sorts in order to clarify the role of each ensuing chapter in the journey. The best such roadmap is an illustrative example containing nearly all of the components of an unsteady inviscid flow.
