MATH 749 / Mathematical and Computational Fluid Dynamics

3 unit(s)

(cross-listed as CSE 749)

Mathematical properties of the Euler and Navier-Stokes equations for fluid flow, boundary layers, non-Newtonian fluids and turbulence. Numerical methods for the solution of the equations of fluid dynamics, focusing on finite volume, finite difference and spectral methods. Advanced topics include non-uniform grids, multigrid methods and adaptive methods.
