'This book is quite complete and self-contained. It is up-to-date and covers a wide range of topics, all of which are pertinent. The presentation seems accessible to beginners, and yet it also has enough advanced material to be of interest to experts.' Todd Arbogast, Professor, Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences, University of Texas, Austin 'This is a well-structured book covering a field that, as far as I am aware, has not already been dealt with. It will be an excellent supplement to existing books.' Rainer Helmig, Professor, Institute of Hydraulic Engineering, University of Stuttgart, Germany
