Introduction

This appendix outlines those aspects of vector algebra, vector calculus, and vector field theory that are useful in the study of fluid dynamics. Most of the material appearing in this appendix is reproduced from Fitzpatrick 2008. For more information on vector algebra, vector calculus, and vector field theory see Schey 1992 and Milne-Thomson 2011.
