課程概述

Chapter 1 Basic Equations-conservation of momentum, mass
Chapter 2 Basic Equation-Thermodynamics
Cheater 3 Simplified systems
Chapter 4 Wave dynamics
Chapter 5 Vorticity
Chapter 6 Turbulence and boundary 

課程目標
This is an introductory course of fluid dynamics intended for second or third year students in the College of Science. The goal is to help students acquire a solid understanding of the basic concepts of fluid dynamics that will be needed for advanced courses in atmospheric science, physical oceanography, and theoretical physics. This course is not keen toward engineering application that boundary dynamics and tensor viscosity are given little attention hence could not be regarded as an alternative for such purpose.
Emphasis is on the basic conservation laws, the mass-momentum adjustment, wave and vorticity dynamics, with a sip of turbulences.
 
課程要求
This course presumes an exposure to classical mechanics and partial differential equations and vector calculus, some grasp of thermodynamics. Students who feel that they may be significantly over- or under-prepared should contact the instructor in the first few weeks.

參考書目
I have been looking many years for a suitable treaty to no avail. The reasons
are many, for one, the force associated with gravity has been fallen out of
favor from mainstream physics. A course of fluid mechanics becomes more tilted
toward engineering. Another reason is the formalistic approach championed by
the modern Algebra school put too much emphasis on abstract derivation, thus
alienates learners’ instinct and enthusiasm.

In contrary our subject in this course is rich in empirical experiences.
Fortunately, efforts of previous classes have produced an edition of readable
class notes for your reference. I am trying to write an updated version in
this year 2009.

Upon the recent proliferation of free materials in web I strongly urge you to
search sites like MIT’s free course program that a bountiful of excellent
class notes and visual aides are available. I am trying to compile a list and
you are welcome to join my effort of mining information from net.

Some texts for weak heart

Kundu, P. K., and I. M. Cohen.2004 Fluid Mechanics. 3rd ed. New York:
Elsevier Academic Press. (A thorough and generally accurate treatment of fluid
mechanics, with many examples from geophysical flows. This is perhaps the best
single text for an introductory class, though I don't feel comfortable to dive
into tensor too early.) $$$
Secondary References. There are dozens of useful texts on fluid dynamics. A
few of those most likely to be of use and that are available from the
instructor are listed below.

Thermodynamics

Finn, B. J. 1981 熱力寶典Engines, Energy and Entropy. 天下文化 may be your
best buy.
You should already have many excellent atmospheric thermodynamics textbooks,
be sure you review it under different light.

General Fluid Dynamics

Acheson, D. J., 1990. Elementary Fluid Dynamics. Oxford Univ. Press. (Concise
and elegant treatment of mainly engineering problems, or it could have been
our primary text. Not so elementary, really.)
Faber, T. E., Fluid Dynamics for Physicists. Cambridge Univ. Press. (Much like
Tritton; elegant and insightful, but not many geophysical examples.)
Lin, C. C. and L. A. Segel, 1974. Mathematics Applied to Deterministic
Problems in the Natural Sciences. MacMillan Publishing, New York. (Part C is
devoted to the theory of continuous media, and is a concise, precise,
mathematical treatment of continuum mechanics, a bit more formal than we want
here, but superb as a second, advanced source. Chapters on scale analysis and
simplification procedures are the best I know of.) $$$
Tritton, D. J., 1988. Physical Fluid Dynamics. Oxford Univ. Press. (A
potpourri of fluid phenomenon. Explanations of many specific phenomenons (for
example of the stress tensor or of incompressibility) are very clear and well
illustrated. The organization is not suitable for an introductory text, but
this is a very valuable supplement.) $$$
White, F. M., 1994. Fluid Mechanics. McGraw-Hill Inc., New York. (Quite
engineering yet the mainstream type).

Geophysical Fluid Dynamics

Cushman-Roisin, B., 1994. Introduction to Geophysical Fluid Dynamics. Prentice
Hall Inc., Englewood, NJ. (A first rate introduction. Recommended for
purchase, though it is a little pricey on last listing, $80.)
Gill, A. E., 1982. Atmosphere-Ocean Dynamics. Academic Press, New York. (A
scholarly, well balanced and extensive introduction to ocean and atmosphere
dynamics. Example problems are motivated by observations, and carried through
to interesting results. Many tables of useful data. Perhaps not the best
introductory textbook, but highly recommended as a supplement to Kundu). $$$
Holton, J.R., 1992, An Introduction to Dynamical Meteorology, 3rd Edition,
Academic Press. ( For Atmospheric or Oceanographic students this is a book you
will buy in next year anyway, why not buy it now? This book, originated from
class notes in MIT Charney's course, is considered a classic. It contains many
atmospheric phenomena and beautifully descriptions of basics). $$$
Pedlosky, J., 1987. Geophysical Fluid Dynamics, 2nd Ed., Springer Verlag, New
York. (The vintage classic, you'll see this in more advanced courses on GFD).
$$$

Miscellaneous Fluid Dynamics

Aris, R., 1962. Vectors, Tensors and the Basic Equations of Fluid Mechanics.,
Dover Pub., New York. (Some of the opening chapters are very clear and precise
treatments of vector calculus, etc. Good additional reference.)
Tokaty, G. A., 1971. A History and Philosophy of Fluid Mechanics. Dover Pub.,
New York. (Knowing the history can sometimes help you keep things organized.
But this is not the place to begin learning fluid mechanics. It was written by
a Russian aeronautic scientist, undoubtedly his view appears highly skewed.)

Math

Any book by Gilbert Strang will be a symbol of math reform for future, most
notably, Introduction to Applied Mathematics by Wellesley-Cambridge. If you
look for a bible of college math, this is your answer. Strang has mixed
geometric intuition, numerical algorithm, and sheer genius insight that, as I
see it, meets no match in modern textbooks.
The Strang lectures can be found in MIT open course program web site (which
contains a generous free copy of Strang’s Calculus online, among other
things).
Also, my friend 李國偉 has translated Strang’s Linear Algebra published by 天
下遠見.

Schey, H.R. 1973, Div, Grad, Curl and All, Norton., New York. A quick look at
the basic Geometric Calculus. Very intuitive and never dull. It has an OK
Chinese translation by your teacher i.e., me (and my students.)
