MEK3800 – Environmental fluid mechanics
Course description
Course content
The aim if this course is to study?fluid flows that occur naturally in nature. These phenomena can be important for the environment, climate, safety and transport of pollution. These fluid flows are not very different from engineering flows that exist in e.g. pipes and machinery. In this course we will discuss a variety of these types of?flows, including their?similarities and differences.?
Learning outcome
After completing the course you have
- learned about selected fluid flow phenomena that exist in nature
- been trained in analysing problems
- learned to structure and write a report
- been trained in communicating the results.
Admission to the course
Students who are admitted to study programmes at UiO must each semester register which courses and exams they wish to sign up for?in Studentweb.
