Introduction to the kinematics of the deformation of continous media, without a bias toward solid or fluid mechanics, or rheology, but with an awaremness of the needs of each. Introduces rotation, strain,...
Demonstrates the use of flow visualisation to improve understanding of complex flows by the use of hydrogen bubble and dye injection techniques in flows involving boundary layer separation and transition,...
Part 1: Some curious experiments. Part 2: Fundamental concepts. Part 3: The laws of drag in fluids of high and low viscosity. Part 4: How to reduce drag.
The concept of secondary flow elucidated by experiments. Practical examples indicate the importance of secondary flow to the engineer.
Shows simple experimental demonstrations relating to vorticity and circulation in fluids and explains their concepts and usefulness in understanding fluid motion. Vorticity and circulation are defined in...
Using large experimental tanks, explains how waves are created and shows that even though waves may travel at a good rate of speed, the water does not move. It also notes that high-energy waves are created...
A lecture by Professor Lloyd Trefethen on the nature and measurement of the forces at interfaces between different media in contact.
Behaviour of surface gravity waves in liquids. Experiments in open water channels.
Experiments to illustrate the relationship of velocity to pressure in steady flow. Flow visualisation methods, conduits of variable contour, gauges etc. used to show pressure distribution in bends and in...
Shows a vortex tank and various phenomena of flow through a bellmouth spillway. The phenomena illustrated include radial flow into a bellmouth, the formation of a vortex, the emptying and filling of the...
