Continuum hypothesis. Development of basic principles of fluid mechanics: kinematics of flows, forces and deformation of fluids, basic equations (conservation of mass, momentum, energy) in integral and differential form, constitutive laws, solutions of Navier-Stokes equations. Dimensional analysis and similarity. Inviscid flow: circulation, vortex dynamics, dynamic flow. Viscous flows: significance of Reynolds number, wake, boundary layers, boundary layer separation. Turbulent flows.
