MEK4800 – 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, which is written by using a typesetting software for writing mathematics (e.g. LaTeX)
- been trained in communicating the results
- conducted a small research project or literature review
- presented the results.?
