Written for undergraduate engineering students, this text presents the theory and applications of fluid mechanics.  Explanations are based on basic physical concepts and mathematics that are appropriate for undergraduate engineering students, such as differential equations and vector algebra.  Topics covered include fluid statics; fluid motion; dimensional analysis and similitude; internal, external, and compressible flow; and flow in open channels and piping systems.  Some problems are solved using MATLAB.
