There are 5 modules in this course

This course provides a rigorous introduction to advanced fluid mechanics, focusing on fundamental principles and their applications. It begins with the continuum viewpoint and equations of motion, establishing the theoretical framework for fluid analysis. The curriculum then covers hydrostatics, including fluid equilibrium and buoyancy concepts. A significant portion of the course is dedicated to inviscid flow, exploring Euler's equation, Bernoulli's integral, and the effects of streamline curvature. Students will learn to apply control volume theorems for mass conservation, linear and angular momentum, and thermodynamics. The course emphasizes the application of these principles to increasingly complex systems, bridging the gap between theoretical understanding and practical engineering problems. Throughout the course, students will engage with lecture videos, concept checks, practice problems, and extensive problem sets to reinforce their learning.

Continuum viewpoint and the equations of motion

Module 1

Hydrostatic analysis of fluids in static equilibrium, buoyancy

Module 2
