The aim of the course is to create a deeper and a wider knowledge of fundamental fluid mechanics. Emphasis is put on the governing equations, instability, transition. A red line through the course is the interpretations of flow phenomena in context based on the governing equations.
Introduction on Continuous medium, Stress tensor, characteristics of fluid at rest and in motion are first given. Then, statics, kinematics and dynamics of fluids are looked at. In the first part, inviscid and viscous uncompressible fluid are studied up to the classical solution of Navier-Stokes Equations.
