The course
provides a survey of continuum fluid mechanics. Part I gives an extensive
development of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations. Part II focuses on
their solution in various limits: vorticity dynamics, compressible flow,
potential flow, and viscous laminar flow. The emphasis is on fluid physics and
the mathematics necessary to efficiently describe the physics.
