MATH 6377 Mathematical Fluid Mechanics

This course provides an introduction to fundamental aspects of mathematical fluid mechanics. Topics include classification of fluids, flow characteristics, dimensional analysis, derivations of Euler, Bernoulli and Navier-Stokes equations, complex analysis for two-dimensional potential flows, exact solutions for simple cases of flow such as plane Poiseuille flow, and Couette flow.
