The book presents the modern state of the art in the mathematical theory of compressible Navier-Stokes equations, with particular emphasis on the applications to aerodynamics. The topics covered include:
modeling of compressible viscous flows;
modern mathematical theory of nonhomogeneous boundary value problems for viscous gas dynamics equations;
applications to optimal shape design in aerodynamics;
kinetic theory for equations with oscillating data;
new approach to the boundary value problems for transport equations.

The monograph offers a comprehensive and self-contained introduction to recent mathematical tools designed to handle the problems arising in the theory.
