MECH 611 - Advanced Fluid Mechanics

Credit Hours: 3

Prerequisites: MATH 231 and MECH 311 or consent of program director.
Advanced Fluid Mechanics is a continuation of concepts presented in a typical undergraduate course in fluid mechanics. The course introduces vector, tensor, and indicial notation. Topics in incompressible fluid dynamics are explored at depth including viscous flows, the Navier-Stokes equations, and boundary layer theory. Basic concepts in turbulent flow are also covered.
