Advanced Fluid Mechanics: Course Description
'Advanced Fluid Mechanics' is a graduate level course taught by four professors, Anette Hosoi, Gareth McKinley, Ain Sonin and Ahmed Ghoniem. The course is primarily designed for students with a background in Mechanical Engineering and some prior knowledge of Fluid Mechanics. There is a total of 12 topics covered over the course of the semester and some of these include, static fluids, surface tension, mass conservation and dimensional analysis. The final exam comprises 50 percent of the total grade.
Selected readings, lecture notes, assignments and exams are available for download for free online. If you are interested in taking this OpenCourseWare, visit the advanced fluid mechanics course page.
