This collection of survey papers, accessible to graduate students, gives a thorough exposition of the research on complex fluids (with internal structure), which is important also for industrial applications.
Zusammenfassung
From the reviews:
"Delivered with insight and clarity, this book deserves a spot on the shelf of any ski devotee and winter mountaineer. [It] presents a collection of ideas that has something to offer each time it's opened." Linda Crockett, Education Director, Professional Ski Instructors of America
"This skier and physicist found it a pleasure to read about the history of skiing and to have a well-written book on the physics of snow, equipment, and skiing techniques." Ernest M. Henley, Physics Department, University of Washington
