This derivation is Shevell's
PBL excellent exposition of that derivation, but that derivation is not 'Shevells' there are no new equations/derivations in aerodynamics, at this point that derivation is everyone's...these are standards. what's new is application...I acknowledge that few real life analysis have closed form solutions, but the set-up was done years ago by the formerly living

there are many ways to think about things...one way to write it,.... and all books are virtually the same math, I have like six book named 'thermodynamics' and like sixty on aerodynamics...the same stuff with the exceptions of a few specialized texts, one of them I still don't get

just saying



PS can't discuss string theory and such..I don't know there might be something new there
