Nonlinearity has established itself quite well, but so far only a very small number of general nonlocal concepts and no concrete nonlocal turbulent flow solutions were available. This book presents the first analytical and numerical solutions of elementary turbulent flow problems, mainly based on a nonlocal closure.

Simple, yet precise solutions to special flows are also constructed, namely Blasius boundary layer flows, matched asymptotics of the Navier-Stokes equations, global laws of steady and unsteady boundary layer flows and laminar and turbulent pipe flows.

3D creeping flows and rapid granular avalanches are treated in the context of the shallow flow approximation, and it is demonstrated that uniqueness and stability deliver a natural transition to turbulence modeling at the zero, first order closure level.

This book delivers a thorough derivation of nonrelativistic interaction models of electromagnetic field theories with thermoelastic solids and viscous fluids, the intention being to derive unique representations for the observable field quantities.

This book describes methods of investigation for processes taking place in real lakes, as components of the geophysical environment. Covers numerical modeling, observation and experimental procedures, and the dynamics of lake water as a particle-laden fluid.

This volume examines lakes as oscillators. It covers barotropic and baroclinic waves in homogeneous and stratified lakes on the rotating Earth, presents a classification of rotating shallow-water waves and describes Kelvin-type and Poincare-type waves.

This first volume in the treatise on the Physics of Lakes deals with the formulation of the mathematical and physical background, presenting the morphology of a large number of lakes as well as the causes of their response to the driving environment.

The purpose and scope of this book on theoretical glaciology is outlined in the Introduction. In the last 20 years, several researchers in different fields of glaciology have written books emphasizing the aspects of their specialities and I have listed some which are known to me at the end of the Introduction.

This book puts the theory for a mixture of hypoplastic constituents on a rigorous basis using Muller and Liu's thermodynamic analysis. It addresses a continuum mechanical formulation of structured solid-fluid mixtures for elasto-viscous-frictional materials.

This third volume describes continuous bodies treated as classical (Boltzmann) and spin (Cosserat) continua or fluid mixtures of such bodies.

With an emphasis on snow avalanches, this book provides a survey and discussion about the motion of avalanche-like flows from initiation to run out. An important aspect of this book is the formulation and investigation of a simple but appropriate continuum mechanical model for the realistic prediction of geophysical flows of granular material.
