BEE 3310 - Bio-Fluid Mechanics

Fall, Summer. 4 credits. Letter grades only.

Prerequisite: MATH 1910, MATH 1920, MATH 2930, ENGRD 2020 and basic knowledge in complex numbers.

S. Jung.

Properties of Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids; hydrostatic and dynamic forces; principles of continuity, conservations of mass, energy and momentum and their applications; laminar and turbulent flows and boundary layer, introduction to Navier Stokes; dimensional analysis and similarity; internal and external bio-fluid examples will be covered e.g. blood circulatory systems and animal locomotion.

Outcome 1: Students will improve their ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science and mathematics (ABET 1).
