APMA 2580 - Computational Fluid Dynamics

Institution:

Brown University

Subject:

Description:

An introduction to computational fluid dynamics with emphasis on incompressible flows. Reviews the basic discretization methods (finite differences and finite volumes) following a pedagogical approach from basic operators to the Navier-Stokes equations. Suitable for first-year graduate students, more advanced students, and senior undergraduates. Requirements include three to four computer projects. Material from APMA 1170 and 1180 is appropriate as prerequisite, but no prior knowledge of fluid dynamics is necessary.
