The information below describes how the course contributes to the college's educational objectives. This course is intended primarily for graduate students, but it helps to meet the objectives of having students be able to identify, formulate and solve engineering problems. Students work individually and in teams to learn the fundamentals used in modern computer analysis and simulation of fluid dynamical systems. This understanding is applied to series of problems to demonstrate the connection between the controlling physical processes and the appropriate solution procedures. 2 moderate length programming projects focused on fluids applications 1 large programming project Students turn in written reports for all assingments.
Students work in teams of two to three on project assignments.
