1. Basic concepts of analytic geometry in a real 3-space: scalar product, vectorial product, equations of rights, planes and squares. (as seen in Calculus 2)
2. Real functions in multiple real variables: limit and continuity (intuitive), including simple properties, partial derivative of arbitrary order and applications (tangents, normals, gradients, directional derivatives, derivatives of implicitly defined functions), differentiability. (as seen in Calculus 2)
3. Taylor approximations, of arbitrary order, including error estimates in linear approximations. (as seen in Calculus 2)
4. Double integrals: definition, properties, and techniques to compute these integrals for elementary or regular domains. (as seen in Calculus 2)
5. Extreme values for problems without or with additional conditions. (as seen in Calculus 2)
6. Derivatives of integrals with parameters. (as seen in Calculus 2)
7. The student knows how to work with Cartesian, cylindrical and spherical coordinates in a real 3-dimensional space. (as seen in Vectorcalculus)
8. The student knows the notion of double and triple (proper and improper) integral and can calculate them in different coordinate systems. (as seen in Vectorcalculus)
9. The student knows the notion of scalar field and vector field. He/she knows what a line integral and a surface integral are. He/she can calculate these notions and use them in applications such as the calculation of area and flux. (as seen in Vectorcalculus)

This course covers the development of the fundamental equations of hydrodynamics and their simplifications for several cases. Topics include: the principles of conservation and diffusion of mass, momentum and energy, the macroscopic and microscopic explanation of diffusion processes, laminar and turbulent flows, the concept of viscosity and the Reynolds number are explained and how the qualitative behavior of currents depends on them, the development of the Navier-Stokes' equation. During the exercise sessions (werkzitting) students will use finite element analysis software to solve some problems.

Semester 1 (4,00sp)
| Evaluation method | |
|
| Written evaluation during teaching period | 30 % |
|
|
|
|
|
| Evaluation conditions (participation and/or pass) | ✔ |
|
| Conditions | Submitting the report is mandatory. The report must be submitted and assessed as sufficient in order to receive a pass. |
|
|
|
| Consequences | A student whose report is not assessed as sufficient, will receive F-fail as final grade for the programme component, regardless of the result of his/her exam. |
|
|
|
| Additional information | During the simulation work students will simulate liquid (or gas) flow around an object (which students can choose freely) by finite element analysis. The aim is to learn how flow patterns change when the flow velocity is changed (i.e. the analysis is done at different Reynolds numbers), and calculate the drag and lift forces acting on the object. We will use COMSOL Multiphysics 4.3a Class Kit software. COMSOL will be used during several problem classes to to enable that students learn the software during the course. The simulation assignment will be initiated during the last problem class and then students will continue the work independently, leading to a written report which should be delivered before the exam. |

Second examination period
| Evaluation second examination opportunity different from first examination opprt | |
|
| Explanation evaluation | 1. A student who did not submit the report in the first examination
opportunity, will be able to submit the report in the second examination
opportunity before a specific date communicated by the examiner.
2. A student whose report was assessed as sufficient (pass) in the first
examination opportunity, will keep this pass when determining the final
grade for the programme component in the second examination opportunity.
3. A student whose report was not assessed as sufficient, will be able
to rework the paper once and will have to submit the report before a
specific date communicated by the examiner. The student will be able to
choose to transfer the partial grade he/she obtained in the first
examination opportunity for the exam as partial grade in the second
examination opportunity, providing this score was at least 8/20.
4. A pass for the report will automatically be transferred to the next
academic year in the event that the student will have to re-enroll in
the programme component in the next academic year.
5. In the event that a student has not passed the programme component at
the end of the academic year, the student may request to transfer the
partial grade he/she obtained for the exam to the next examination
opportunity in the case of re-enrollment, providing that the student
obtained a minimum score of 50% for the exam. A lower score will not be
transferrable to a following re-enrollment in the programme component. |
