Advanced Fluid Dynamics of the Environment

Author(s): Prof. Chiang Mei; Guangda Li
Offered by: MIT: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Type: Lecture note
Keywords: Fluid Dynamics

Description of open courseware

Designed to familiarize students with theories and analytical tools useful for studying research literature, this course is a survey of fluid mechanical problems in the water environment. Because of the inherent nonlinearities in the governing equations, we shall emphasize the art of making analytical approximations not only for facilitating calculations but also for gaining deeper physical insight. The importance of scales will be discussed throughout the course in lectures and homeworks. Mathematical techniques beyond the usual preparation of first-year graduate students will be introduced as a part of the course. Topics vary from year to year.
