Program / Major mDP Goals
先進国際課程 A-1 A-1 Students shall obtain basic and advanced knowledge and skills in mathematics, natural and computer sciences as well as presentation skills to communicate on their knowledge with scholars from various fields.
(改組前)先進国際課程 A-1 A-1 Students shall obtain basic and advanced knowledge and skills in mathematics, natural and computer sciences as well as presentation skills to communicate on their knowledge with scholars from various fields.
Purpose of class
To understand the state of matter (gas, liquid, and solid), the physics concept applies to the fluid (gas and liquid) statistically and dynamically. Students shall understand the fundamental principles that work on the fluid containing temperature, pressure, force, and the equation of continuity. The students will finally be introduced to the concept of viscosity and surface tension. The students are also expected to understand the application of these principles in the engineering field, such as aeroplanes, pumps, and venturi meters, and in the bioscience field, such as blood flow in the human body, and the heart system.
Course description
This lecture introduces the fundamental understanding of fluid (liquid and gases) and its kinematics, statically and dynamics, or it can be called hydrodynamics. This lecture introduces the Pascal, Archimedes, and Bernoulli’s principles as well as the 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 these principles in engineering and bioscience.
Goals and objectives
  1. The students can explain the phase of matter, Pascal, Archimedes, and Bernoulli’s principles
  2. The students can explain the Equation of Continuity and its application
  3. The students can explain the Bernoulli’s Equation and its application
  4. The students can explain the fluid dynamics and its application in the engineering and bioscience

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.
