While in college, David R. Dowling held summer positions at Hughes Aircraft Co. and the Los Angeles Air Force Station. He completed his doctorate in 1988 at Graduate Aeronautical Laboratories of the California Institute of Technology and moved north to Seattle to accomodate his wife's career in medicine. While there, he worked for a year in the laser technology group at Boeing Aerospace, and then for almost three years as a post-doc at the Applied Physics Laboratory of the University of Washington. In 1992, he accepted a faculty position at the University of Michigan. Prof. Dowling is currently conducting research in acoustics and fluid mechanics. He is a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America, a member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and a member of the American Physical Society. He is a US citizen.
Positions at the University of Michigan :
Professor, Sept 2005 to Present
Associate Professor, Sept 1999 thru August 2005
Assistant Professor, Sept 1992 thru August 1999
Visiting Assistant Professor, July 1992 thru August 1992
Jesse Capecelatro was born in White Plains, New York. He earned a BS from the State University of New York Binghamton in 2009, a MS from the University of Colorado Boulder in 2011, and a MS and PhD from Cornell University in 2014, all in Mechanical Engineering. Shortly after that, he worked as a postdoc and research scientist at the Center for Exascale Simulation of Plasma-coupled Combustion (XPACC) at the University of Illinois. He joined the faculty in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Michigan in 2016, where he has since taught and conducted research in fluid mechanics with an emphasis on computational methods, turbulence, and multiphase flow. He is a recipient of the National Science Foundation CAREER Award, Office of Naval Research Young Investigator Award, and the ASME Pi Tau Sig
- As with prior editions, the new edition continues to accommodate the needs of upper level students who have completed minimal prior study of fluid mechanics
- Enriched with more real-world examples and exercises
- Computational worked examples and exercises using MATLAB have been added
- Much of the text has been re-written to be more clear and concise
