This course applies fluid mechanics to systems which might be encountered in engineering practice. Topics include fluid properties, hydrostatics, laminar and turbulent flow, energy and continuity ...

THE exploitation of trapped vortices and flow deceleration by the aortic valve to ensure maximum efficiency and to make possible laminar flow 1,2 suggests a similar mechanism for the atrio-ventricular ...

"The pipe-flow problem has always been one of the most basic and important in the study of fluid mechanics, and in many ways the field was developed to address this problem," explains Ristroph, ...
