Introduction
The Journal of Fluid Mechanics exists
for the publication of theoretical, computational and experimental
investigations of all aspects of the mechanics of fluids. It is
published by the Cambridge University Press semimonthly in 24 volumes
each year. It was founded
in 1956 by George Batchelor, and in 1996 David Crighton took over as Editor until his death
in April 2000. The present joint Editors are Steve Davis and Grae
Worster, who head a team of associate editors.
Online Digital Archive
The Journal
of Fluid Mechanics Digital Archive is
a repository of every single article published in the Journal of Fluid
Mechanics between 1956 and 1996. Articles are reproduced as
high-resolution PDFs, and the archive is fully searchable.

Focus on
Fluids
Cambridge University Press and the Editorial Board of the Journal of
Fluid Mechanics are pleased to announce a new initiative: "Focus on
Fluids". Every month, one particularly interesting paper in the Journal
will be the subject of an extended review and discussion by an
acknowledged and invited expert in the field. The Focus on Fluids
article will appear both in the print journal, and as a free online pdf
from the Focus on
Fluids website. The FoF article will explain the context,
importance and implications of the underlying paper to a wider
scientific audience, highlighting both the key findings and
breakthroughs of the paper and the implications of the research for
future activity. The twin aims of this initiative are to raise the
visibility of fluid mechanics research and to attract more people to
this beautiful, challenging and increasingly relevant subject.
