DATABASE DESCRIPTION
The FLUIDEX (Fluid Engineering Abstracts) database provides a comprehensive source of information on all aspects of fluids engineering, behaviour and applications. It is an ideal awareness tool for past and current developments in the process and civil engineering worlds. Coverage includes the latest in theoretical fluid dynamics research, from innovative separation techniques, to wind loading on offshore platforms, and the application and operation of hydraulic and pneumatic technologies. 97% of records contain an English-language abstract. Material included in FLUIDEX is also available in the associated journals: Fluid Abstracts: Process Engineering, Fluid Abstracts: Civil engineering
SOURCES
The database provides current coverage of nearly 500 periodicals and archival coverage of several hundred additional titles, including refereed scientific papers, trade journal and magazine articles, product reviews, directories and any other relevant material.
