Lecture Notes on Intermediate Fluid Mechanics by AME

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.
