How to Use this Course GuideThe following course guide is intended to supplement the course textbook and lab experiments associated with ME318 and ME319. All of the sources listed on this page are available in Helmke Library. The works listed have been selected as representative sources of information for finding alternative or more in-depth explanations of concepts, terminology, and equations relevant to fluid mechanics. Chapters listed are suggestions; the chapters correspond to material covered in the textbook. Those books that do not have chapter suggestions are more in-depth looks at topics covered in the textbook. Books suggested under the heading ME319 Fluid Mechanics Lab are supplemental readings for the experiments undertaken in the laboratory.
Locating Books and Periodicals in the LibraryBooks, printed periodicals, and other library materials are shelved in Library of Congress Classification (LC) call number order. The call number and IUCAT Shelving Locations will help you determine on which floor of the library an item will be shelved.

Finding Engineering ArticlesArticles from peer-reviewed journals and technical reports are the best sources from which to learn the current research being performed by experts in Fluid Mechanics. To discover articles and technical reports, follow these steps.
1. Find an articleIndexes are tools to locate articles. There are two types of indexes that are used to find articles and technical reports. One type is print indexes. They index articles (hence the name) by subject and author, and in many cases, other distinguishing features of an article, such as co-author or corporate author. These indexes can be found in the Reference and Science Reference areas of Helmke Library. These indexes generally cover from the early 1900s to the 1990s. If background or historical research is needed, these would be appropriate sources.
The other source of article citations is online databases. These bibliographic databases are the online equivalents of the print indexes. However, they cover only the most recent years, generally beginning their coverage after 1990, although more are adding historical coverage, sometimes indexing articles back from the early to mid-1900s. Check the database help screen to learn what range of years a particular database covers.
Databases for this Course
Compendex (Ei Engineering Village 2)
Content: | Compendex provides bibliographic references with abstracts to over 7.5 million articles in 5,000 engineering journals as well as to technical reports, conference papers, and proceedings issued from 1970 to present. This comprehensive, interdisciplinary engineering index is updated weekly. Use IU-Link to access the full text of articles through Document Delivery Services or from other full-text databases. |
Access: | Database available to authorized IPFW users (on or off campus). IPFW library owns the printed Engineering Index 1892-1997 (Science Reference Z5851 .E62). |

Scitation (American Institute of Physics)
Content: | Scitation distributes online publications in a broad range of scientific and engineering disciplines. Online full text is available for journal titles currently subscribed to in paper format by IPFW. Also available is the SPIN database. SPIN includes bibliographic records and abstracts for more than 1.5 million articles from major physical science journals, magazines, and conference proceedings published by the American Institute of Physics, its member societies, and other affiliated organizations. |
Access: | Database available to authorized IPFW users (on or off campus). |

Web of Science
Content: | The Web of Science provides access to the Science Citation Index Expanded, Social Sciences Citation Index, and Arts and Humanities Citation Index published by the Institute for Scientific Information. These unique citation indexes scan the content (including cited references) of nearly 9,000 major journals published worldwide. Updated weekly. Each record offers access to the author's abstract (when available), words in article titles (thus, limited subject analysis), and most importantly, the author's full bibliography (list of cited references or bibliographic footnotes). Use Cited Reference Search to find articles that cite an author or a work anywhere in the indexed source journals from 1955 to present. Use General Search to find articles by topic, author, journal, or address; IPFW's license provides access to articles published in the 9,000 source journals only from 1995 to present. Use the Help feature or Information for New Users to learn more about citation searching, including techniques for eliminating self-citations, finding articles that make reference to or include illustrations of works of art and music scores (implicit citations), or how to use the Times Cited feature to trace citation networks. Searches can be saved and run as search alerts. Results can be marked to print, save, e-mail, or export directly into bibliographic management software such as EndNote. A Master Journal List is available after authentication. |
Access: | Database available to authorized IPFW users (on or off campus). |

Wiley Interscience
Content: | Wiley InterScience is the online content service from John Wiley & Sons delivering the full text of over 300 leading scientific, technical, medical, and professional journals. Subject areas include business, finance, management, chemistry, computer science, earth science, education, engineering, law, life sciences, medical sciences, mathematics, physics, and psychology. Database content is searchable by author, article title, journal title and keyword. Wiley's EarlyView service presents individual articles online as soon as they are ready, even before the release of the compiled print issue. EarlyView articles are complete, peer-reviewed, and citable. |

2. Find the article in a journalCheck the citation you found in the indexes or bibliographic databases and find the publishing journal's name in the citation. Use E-Journal Finder to look at the alphabetical list of journals that can be accessed online. If the journal you are looking for is there, click on a link to reach the vendor site. Once there, follow on-screen dialog boxes and instructions to find your article.
If the journal is not available in full text, use IUCAT to find the print version of the periodical. Print journals for all engineering subject areas are located on the fourth floor of Helmke Library.
When a Resource is Not Available in the LibraryRequest Delivery is an IUCAT feature that allows IPFW faculty, students, and staff to request materials held by other Indiana University Libraries and to have them delivered to Helmke Library (see the IUCAT Request Delivery Fact Sheet).
You may also request any item that is not available at Helmke Library through Document Delivery Services (DDS). DDS borrows books and provides photocopies of periodical articles from other library collections. The service is free for IPFW faculty, staff, and students.
