Fluid dynamics is traditionally one of the most challenging areas of computational mechanics; the simulation of fluid motion is always a serious test for any numerical method. The book is a compilation of some advanced topics on the application of BEM in fluid mechanics. The eleven chapters in the book have been contributed by leading authors in the field. This book accordingly provides an important addition to the literature in fluid mechanics.
