Turblence, Coherent Structures, Dynamical Systems and Symmetry

by Holmes, Lumley and Berkooz

***** [5/5]

While many of my colleagues did not find this book helpful, I have enjoyed the authors clear treatment of the subject. While Proper Orthogonal Decomposition may not be a solution to all problems in turbulence, the treatment in this text does clearly outline the history, how it has been used by prior authors, and finally the implementation.

I found this book to be very helpful in untangling the large volume of publications on the subject with a concise review.
