Lecture

Fluid Kinematics: Introduction

Description

This lecture introduces the concept of fluid kinematics, focusing on the definition of fluids as continuum media that cannot maintain rest when stressed. It explores the properties of fluids, the Eulerian and Lagrangian descriptions of fluid motion, the continuum hypothesis, and the material derivative. The lecture also covers topics such as path lines, streamlines, and the gradient of scalars and vectors in the context of fluid mechanics.
