"Fluid mechanics in two hours (1)" Prof. Gregory Falkovich

Date

Tuesday, February 24, 2015 - 14:00 to 15:00

Location

C210 Seminar room

Description

This is a short mini-course on basics of fluid mechanics  given from a modern perspective. It describes fluid flows as an arena for the eternal struggle between inertia and friction. By focusing on the forces acting on a body in a fluid, one sees origin of modern notions of renormalization, symmetry breaking and anomalies. This mini-course is for those who do not know the subject and for those who think they do.
