  <abstract>"The text comprehensively introduces the subject vocabulary of fluid mechanics, to senior undergraduate and graduate students in engineering and physical sciences. It explains concepts such as cyclone, typhoon, hurricane, and tornado, by highlighting the shuttle difference between them"--</abstract>
