Theoretical and Applied Fluid Mechanics

Explore a wide spectrum of flows from nature to engineering while learning the basic concepts, equations, and methods of fluid mechanics.  Consider conservation laws and constitutive equations, derive the Navier-Stokes equations, and interpret exact and approximate solutions.  Discussion includes an introduction to the theory of hydrodynamic stability and turbulent flows.

Prerequisites or Prior Knowledge
