Physics: Fluidodynamics, Oscillations and Waves

Course title

M2045000

Course description

This lecture introduces the fundamental understanding of fluid (liquid and gases) and its kinematics statically and dynamically, or it can be called hydrodynamics. This lecture introduces the Pascal, Archimedes, and Bernoulli’s principles as well as Equation of continuity which includes the physical quantity variable, temperature, pressure, force, and the characteristic of the fluid (viscosity). The hydrodynamics principles of will be introduced in a mathematical form. After the midterm, the students will learn more about the application of this principles in engineering and bioscience.

Purpose of class

To understand the state of matter (gas, liquid, and solid) whereas the physics concept applies to the fluid (gas and liquid) statistically and dynamically. Students shall understand the fundamental principles works on the fluid containing of temperature, pressure, force, and equation of continuity. The students will finally introduce to the concept of viscosity and surface tension. The students are also expected to understand the application of this principles in the engineering field such as airplane, pump, and venturi meter, and in the bioscience field such as blood flow in human body, and the heart system.

Evaluation method and criteria

1) discussion participation in the class; 2) homework problem (emphasis put on originality of solutions); 3) midterm exam; 4) final exam, with relative weights of 30% (1+2), 30%(3), 40%(4). A minimum of 60% of the full score is required to pass the course. That is to say two exams are sufficient (midterm and final) releasing therefore the pressure of having to score the maximum in one exam only.
