Studies in rotational flows especially hydromagnetic

Modern asymptotic methods have been used to investigate (1) magnetohydrodynamic duct flow in strong transverse magnetic fields, especially the occurrence of fully developed conditions and inertial effects; (2) the ion probe; (3) hydrodynamic stability, especially magnetohydrodynamic and using a new approach; (4) rotating flows, including stagnation points, almost rigid rotation, and vortex breakdown; (5) viscous boundary layers in shear flow, especially past a flat plate and the inlet problem; (6) diffusion and reversed convection of heat, as it sheds light on the asymptotics of singular elliptic equations; (7) combustion, in particular the burning of a liquid-fuel droplet and the decomposition of a monopropellant droplet.
