DESCRIPTION
Introductory course on Fluid Mechancis composed of:
1. Introduction to Fluid Mechanics: continuum hypothesis, local thermodynamic equilibrium, equations of state and definition of fluid variables.
2. Flow kinematics: Lagrangian and Eulerian description, convective flux, and Reynolds transport theorem.
