Program Overview

Program Overview

The university program focuses on the study of Viscous Flows, including the Navier-Stokes Equation, Vorticity, and Stream Function. The program delves into Exact Solutions, Drag on Spherical Particles, Creeping Flows, and Nonspherical Particles.

Course Topics

• Viscous Flows
  • Navier-Stokes Equation
  • Vorticity
  • Stream Function
• Exact Solutions
• Drag on Spherical Particles
• Creeping Flows
• Nonspherical Particles

Hydrodynamic Forces and Torques

Nonspherical Particles

The program presents hydrodynamic forces and torque for nonspherical particles. Specifically, it considers an axisymmetric body in creeping flow, examining the axial and radial coordinate system, and tangential and normal unit vectors.

Research Areas

The program is associated with the Turbulence & Multiphase Fluid Flow Laboratory, which is part of the Department of Mechanical & Aeronautical Engineering.
