Spring. (Offered alternate years) 4 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: MAE 6010 or permission of instructor

Staff.

This course, which follows on from MAE 6010, Foundations of Fluid Mechanics I, examines fluid flows in a broad range of applications, in terms of the underlying theory. Topics include the molecular viewpoint; stability; turbulence; bio-fluid mechanics micro- and nano-fluid mechanics; multiphase flows; geophysical flows; aerodynamics. Other topics may also be addressed.
