For the past 20 years,
Fluid Mechanics
Research (prior to 1992 Fluid Mechanics-Soviet Research) has
offered broad coverage of the entire field of fluid mechanics including flow of
compressible and incompressible fluids, vapor-liquid and slurry flows,
turbulence, waves, boundary layers, wakes, channel and nozzle flow,
fluid-structure interaction, lubrication, flow in porous media, flow through
turbo-machinery, aerodynamics and rheology as well as new and innovative
measurement techniques. The journal's coverage is now being broadened to
encompass research in the general area of transport phenomena where convective,
diffusional and chemical reaction processes are important and to include
biological systems as well as technological and geophysical systems.
Fluid Mechanics Research has now merged with
the TsAGI Journal, a publication of the world-famous Central
Aero-Hydrodynamics Institute in Russia. This will position the new International Journal of Fluid Mechanics Research
(IJFMR) as a leading
journal on the art and science of transport phenomena and its application to the
understanding of complex technological systems while maintaining a balance
between academic materials and practical applications.
