Abstract
As explained in Chapter 1, the authors have changed the emphasis from that of its progenitor “Inviscid Fluid Flows” by reorganising the material so that the applicability of the analysis can be demonstrated as widely as possible. This has revealed how many mathematical methods that seem to be intimately connected with compressible flow or shallow water theory turn out to be equally useful in areas such as electromagnetism, plasma physics and plasticity.
