Advances in Mathematical Fluid Mechanics

More about the book

This volume celebrates the 60th birthday of Professor Giovanni Paolo Galdi, honoring his significant contributions to Mathematical Fluid Mechanics. It features 35 peer-reviewed papers authored by contributors from 20 countries, showcasing the global impact of his work. The papers were selected from invited lectures and talks presented at the International Conference on Mathematical Fluid Mechanics in Estoril, Portugal, held from May 21–25, 2007, in honor of Professor Galdi. We extend our gratitude to all authors and reviewers for their essential contributions. Professor Galdi has dedicated his career to the mathematical analysis of the Navier-Stokes equations and non-Newtonian flow problems, focusing on hydrodynamic stability and fluid-particle interactions, earning him recognition in the global mathematical community. His work has established significant milestones in these fields and influenced interdisciplinary research. Additionally, he has fostered the careers of many young researchers through his support and mentorship, either directly or by connecting them with senior collaborators. The volume also includes a brief review of Professor Galdi’s activities along with impressions from colleagues and friends.
