Summary
Předmět Základy mechaniky tekutin rozvíjí porozumění mechaniky tekutin jako součásti fyziky v postupném pořadí od jednoduchého po obtížnější. Zahrnuje definici důležitých vlastností tekutin, problematiku kapalin v klidu a související hydrostatický princip přeměny energie, základní aspekty pohybu tekutin, včetně základního matematického popisu proudění, režimů proudění, tlakových ztrát při proudění vazkých tekutin, výpočet silových účinků na ploch a tělesa za klidu i pohybu tekutin. Pozornost je věnována příkladům, které ilustrují aplikaci obecných principů mechaniky tekutin v praxi i v každodenním životě. Řešení dalších příkladů, navazující na jednotlivá probraná témata, včetně souvisejících laboratorních měření, jsou předmětem cvičení.
