Outline |
|
Aerodynamics is a key academic research area for developing, designing, manufacturing, operating and maintaining airplanes, aero-engines, gas turbines, steam turbines, fans, blowers, compressors, automobiles and trains. Students will study a well-established textbook and be given exercises dealing with practical problems. Through this series of lectures on aerodynamics, students will acquire abilities to find, to analyze and to solve problems and technical communication skills. These technical abilities and skills are essential for students who wish to became expert engineers or researchers in this field.

2. |
Objectives |
|
The goals of this course are to understand the fundamental ideas and introduction methods of basic equations of aerodynamics and to acquire applied skill for defining problems and introducing equations to bring solutions for actual engineering issues in the related fields.
