Aims of the course

The course will cover some essential advanced topics in fluid dynamics, from both a theoretical and numerical point of view. The proposed topics include theory for the incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations and numerical methods to approximate them. Additional topics including theory and numerics for the compressible Euler equations may also be covered.

To learn both theoretical aspects of PDEs governing fluid flows as well as numerical methods to approximate them.

Content of the course (tentative)

If time permits, we also cover some topics on the Compressible Euler equations.
