Fluid Dynamics
Winter Term 2008
Course Content
A survey of fundamental concepts,
phenomena, and methods in fluid mechanics and their application in
engineering systems and in nature. Emphasis is placed on the development and
use of the conservation laws for mass, momentum, and energy, as well as on
the empirical knowledge essential to the understanding of many fluid-dynamic
phenomena. Applications include fluid machinery as well as geophysical,
environmental, and biomedical fluid flows. Instructor
